Saunders / White

A Memory of Southampton.

Any information on Millbank Street, Northam. The shop was on the corner of Kent Street and Millbank Street no.9, it was a grocery shop and was owned by Alice Saunders (nee Geappen) who was married and widowed very young. My grandfather, Walter White married Alice in 1897 and applied for a beer licence, then able to sell beer as well. In 1900 they moved to the York Tavern (a pub) in Middle Street, Inner Avenue, Southampton. Have you a picture of the shop or pub or any memories of the shop or pub. I have tried for a long time to find that photo of the shop! Can you help? May I say, that I was born in the York Tavern and lived in Middle Street for many years. We were the Sainsbury's at number 44.. thanks for any help..
