Hi my great great grandparents lived at 38 Dagnall Street in the 1930's, John and Charlotte/Mary Fox, he died there in 1939 and she moved to Ewell. Their daughter Daisy (very red hair) lived with them.
Just wondering if you had any memories at all or information?
I still can't find where he is buried/cremated despite looking everywhere.
Regards
I do not recall the family hope you find where your your family are buried
Mormon church records that could help you
