Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Who lived in your house in 1901? (Frobisher, Falkland & Fairfax Roads)
Michael's thread reminded me that I have access to the 1901 census for these 3 roads.
The School House was occupied by James Quin, his wife Sarah and their 2 children, Ethel and Amy aged 13 and 10 - and one Florence Stockwell (their servant!). James was born in Huntingdonshire, Sarah in Cambridgeshire and the girls in Hertfordshire, as was Florence.
Unfortunately some of the entries are barely legible but I shall do my best to give you as much information as possible.
Right, whose first then?

Adam, the census I have access to is online but I've done a hard copy for you.
Ok, the previous occupant was Peter Crombie Christie aged 44, a commercial traveller from Aberdeen and his wife Emma Sarah, aged 51 who was born in Islington.

Is this a reply from Matt or Angela (I am confused). Is there anyway of collating the information about Fairfax Road which I could share with others in the Fairfax Road Residents Association? Many thanks for this information!

Hi Matt/Angela
Trying to find the hard copy census you did for Adam is going to be a challenge. Can you look up 86 Frobisher please (for obvious reasons). I know I am about 5 years late on this discussion thread!

Lisa, this seems tobe another house which was divided. One part was occupied by
Rebecca Stanley, a 51 year old widow. She was a self-employed dressmaker and was born in Dalston.
Sydney, her 15 year old son, who was a clerk.
Ann Clark, her 71 year old widowed mother who was also born in Dalston.
Willliam White, aged 44. He was a boarder and was employed as a brickmaker's labourer. He was born in Hertfordshire.
The second part of the property (just one room I think) was occupied by
Elizabeth Graydon, a 64 year old widow from Dundalk (?), Ireland.

Hi Angela
Like Ellen, we are new to the area and would love to know more about our house - 62 Falkland Road. If you do get chance to look us up, we'd be so interested to know the history!
Many thanks! :-)
