Hi all

I'm trying to find a street address for my great grandparents on the 1939 register. There names were Loorance Basil Gates (sometimes spelt Lorence) born 1904 Southampton and his wife Vera Annie May Biffin born 1906 Southampton.

Is anyone free to check this for me please? Also would it list any others living with them?
Many thanks

Maddie

Great stuff. Thank you so much. Never heard of Waberham Lane in Southampton so going to look it up now. Thanks again all

Looking at the image (and a couple of images before this one) I think the address should be Waterhouse Lane.

Ah thank you Kath. Had no luck finding a Waberham Lane so will try Waterhouse Lane now. Thank you again x
