Hi Frank, the only street name similar to Timor Road that I can find is Timor Avenue in St Helens. Bootle has a Timon Avenue off Aintree Road.
I don't recall a hotel on Monfa Road, but there is the Aintree Hotel near Timon Avenue. Also I think my sons mate **** Wharton may have lived in that area. I will ask him tonight ( Wed ), if he knows anything about 'your' Betty Wharton. Cheers R R
