Just found out that my Granddad lived at 73 Castle Hill Road during 1901/1910.

Does anyone know it? or could take a photo for me.

Thankyou

Linda

If you google that address - always google everything - it appears the house is listed in a conservation area of Hastings - so if no one comes forward to do a photo - try Hastings council or library.

Google Maps give you a good aerial view too.

Excited now as the address I found was on his war pension records and now I realize that my Dad lived there as well, he was about 3

Hi Linda,

If you use www.photoexchange.ourgenealogy.co.uk it is a list of people willing to take photos across many counties of England. It was set up by someone on these boards.

We were in Hastings yesterday and will be going again soon....not sure when but within the next few weeks.
If you don't get what you need before then send a private message direct to me incase I lose this thread.
