Sydney Edwin Meads b1901 Shottesbrook, Berkshire. Flour Mill employee in Uxbridge, Middlesex and Gainsborough, Lincolnshire.
Married Daisy Mabel Twinn (b1901), (her family in flour milling), in July 1929 in Uxbridge. (The year before, Sydney barely escaped a fire in a mill in Gainsborough). The year after marriage, they had a daughter Marjorie Elizabeth Meads b1930 born in Gainsborough!!! 1939 Register shows them in Warwickshire!!
Marjorie married George Charles Stanley in Nottinghamshire in 1955. Both father and Marjorie's families ended up in Nottingham.
After George's death in 1981, Nottingham, Marjorie died 2016 in Devon!
As an approximate 8 year-old, my family visited a family in Gainsborough around 1950. But I cannot make a connection! Was it Sydney's family?
I have spent a lot of time with this without result. Can anyone help further please?Terence Meads. South Australia.

Magic wand time.

“a family in Gainsborough”. If you have a name or an address then Electoral Rolls are your answer. You may have to pay the local archives to do that search for you.

Without a name or an address you haven’t a hope.

I had to check the calendar………in case I’d slept through the Autumn and Winter and awoken on April 1st ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Have you researched Sydney’s parents and siblings thoroughly……to see where they might have been?

Thanks for your reply's.
Yes I had checked parents and siblings for hours scrolling through Electoral Rolls. No other "Meads' in Gainsborough.
I've only just thought that Sydney, singly and later family, may have lodged with members of the Twinn family in Gainsborough. As there seems to be a connection through Flour Milling.
There were 9 Twinn siblings all born in Uxbridge, Middlesex, from 1884 to George Twinn 1863-1934 and Elizabeth Bird 1861-1949. (Parents originally from Suffolk).
I'll look into this. Terence.

Lodgers should not be recorded on ER’s if they have a permanent address at which they have registered to vote.

BTW….only ONE instance os the name Twinn in Gainsborough on FMP…..a death in 1927

Not sure how you hope to identify this ‘family’ if you have no idea of names, or an address. Have you ANY reason to to imagine they were relatives?

As an approximate 8 year old, I would not remember who these Gainsborough people were. I assumed they were relatives. Or dad's war-time mate.
We stayed some time, and we even went to the Cleethorpes Fun Fair for a day.
I'll look at my mother's (Hazell) or grandmothers (Simmonds) side of the family.
