100 Thornton Road, Bootle

[ValMB]

I am from Manitoba, Canada; Information I know about picture: taken around 1930, at 100 Thornton Road; google maps shows this residence is at the corner of Thornton Road and Blossom Street; One of the young girls possibly Annie Richards, referred to in family history as: 'Annie Bootle Richards'. Anyone recognizing the people or knows who lived there around 1920s and 1930s, would love to hear from. Family history is of the Williams of Asaph, Flintshire, N.Wales. Thanking in advance, Val

I still haven't had a chance to look through the deeds to the house yet. I will do and get back to you on the name.

Bobhamo....That's a brilliant blown up photo....some of the houses could have been damaged in the bombing of Liverpool early 40's and maybe that's why my family moved to Rydal Street....
