Having trawled the 1939 Register, it seems that Byron Street addresses are on a page which is all redacted apart from a couple of names.

There are records for Wordsworth Street, which runs parallel to Byron Street,
then the blacked-out page which is presumably Byron Street,
and then Goldsmith Street, which is on the other side of Byron Street, parallel to it.

1921 -

William Wildman Oldfield
1907
Birthplace: England
Residence: Barrow in Furness
Barrow in Furness
Lancashire

He's with Alfred Oldfield 1880, Alfred Oldfield 1909, Betsy Oldfield 1913, Elsie Oldfield 1916, Ethel May Oldfield 1918, Hannah Oldfield 1887, Robert Oldfield 1911.


I don't have a sub to FMP to give you all the details, but another helper will do so.

Don't be too specific when searching 1921 - just the name and YOB will do, unless there's been a mis-spelling.
