On his marriage certificate (17 April 1895) - "East Molesey".
Address in 1897 (Cecil's birth certificate) - 8 Stuart Road, Thornton Heath, Croydon.
This road does not appear to exist at the time of the 1891 census.
Address in 1918 - Dunloe, 9 Dunheved Road West, West Croydon. Uncle Phil was born here.
Same address found in Kelly/Ward for 1917 thru to 1922.
In 1923 and 1924 Ward/Kelly there is an S Robinson at 94 Beulah Hill - is this Sydney??
I found no further references in Ward/Kelly.
I thought Uncle Phil said that his grandfather moved to London Road, opposite Dunheved Road - or was this his owner father Cecil who is listed in 1921 Wards or Kelly's at living at 350 London Road??.
On the death certificate his address (given under "Occupation") is the same as that of his son Cecil Henry Melville.
