Charles Street Photo’s re-surface!! It’s been a busy week and one which turned up yet more new material! I had started on online competition for locals in Hull to guess the locations of historical buildings in Hull. The competition has had hundreds of views, replies and is highly rated on the Hull Daily Mail “Yoursay” site. The chat soon turned to Charles Street and I asked if any pf the posters had any photo’s of the area. I was innundated with pictures of the locale, from shops, houses and pubs. I will be sifting through them, armed with a trade directory to ascertain their street numbers and perhaps, just maybe, there will be a number 35 Charles Street among the collection! Other News Yet more advances have been made in “Dissecting the Dead or Alive Story” and this week I took delivery of a book from the 1920’s. The book features the “Dead or Alive” story which was said to have been handed from William T Stead to his daughter Estelle, who passed it onto the author of this book and Rev Charles Tweedale for his book. It mentions that the story has it’s origins in another book on Ghosts which I have succesfully tracked down and am awaiting delivery! |
