Hello Phil,
My name is Terry Dorrington. I’m 64 years old and live in Billericay, Essex.
I loaded one of my ancestors addresses Hearn Street, West Ham and your details came up. My great grand parents Alfred and Alice Graves lived at number 2 Hearn Street at the time of the 1911 census. Their daughter Minnie (1900-1985) was my grand mother and her oldest daughter, Edna Jane Alice Collins my mother who died in 2014 aged 87.
Whilst compiling my family history, my mother struggled to remember all the details from the previous two generations. Your information fills in all the gaps in my search, I only wish my mother was still alive to enjoy all the particulars. Edna’s younger sister Ann Bird born in 1931 is still alive and I know the information you have gathered will be of great interest to her.
I am still amazed that I fell on such detailed information on my family just by surfing the net. Thank you so much for your work, it is greatly appreciated.
All the Best
Terry
