My Mums Home

Fen Street c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

My mum moved here when she was about 7 years old in 1959. Her mum and dad Mr and Mrs Claus owned the fish shop third closest to the camera. Her neighbour Mrs Sansby lived in the middle house. The house nearest to the camera is where my mum lived. She lived here until 1963 she was eleven when she moved. She had to move as the houses were about to be pulled down. So she moved up to Church Close where she lived until she got married.  Her father Lothar Hans Claus is buried in Stilton Cemetary. He died in 1973. Her mother Betty is currently living in Orton and she is alive and well. I'm currently happily living with my mum in Fletton.

RE: RE: My Mums Home

Can anyone tell me what the house numbers were of the houses in the picture? My ancestors lived at No 40 and 46 (the 'Boot and Shoe'). Are these houses visible in this picture? Thanks for any info.
