I may not have given you sufficient or correct information.
Re;Lakenham-My gparents lived in Lakenham.Arthur Jex.and Florence
Elizabeth.4 Walton Road.
Arthur was a Journeyman carpenter/coachbuilder.
My mother-Rita Maud lived at that adress and in 1925 would have been
14/schoolgirl

My father Reginald John along with sisters Dorothy and Evelyn and brothers
George and Walter
I understand to have lived at either 2 or 6 Mountergate.I certainly rember
visiting there in the 40s/50s/60s and Evelyn always said that she was born
in Mountergate.
