Hello all,

I am researching a couple and found that they lived at the address given below. This has come from an Electoral Roll in 2002. When I looked for the address on Richtmove in House Prices and Properties for sale it does not show this name "Neelrac". I also did look at the Royal Mail address finder for Gonerby Lane but again it does not bring this name up. Am wondering if anyone out there has any other ideas please?

Neelrac, Gonerby Lane, Grantham, Lincolnshire, NG32 2DU

Regards,

Kathy

I'm not sure what you're asking.
Are you hoping to find out who is at that address more recently?

Presumably the house has a number, and is listed under that.
Or a later owner has changed the house name - I would!

I see the couple (Tanner) on the 2002 ER here on GR.

According to the electoral rolls that’s the house name

House name Neelrac
Other occupants Theresa Tanner
Street Gonerby Lane
Electoral rolls 2002
Town Grantham
Record set UK Electoral Registers & Companies House Directors
County Lincolnshire
Category Census, land & surveys
Country England
Subcategory Electoral Rolls
Postcode NG32 2DU
Collections from Great Britain, England
Address Neelrac, Gonerby Lane, Grantham, Lincolnshire, NG32 2DU

So maybe they named the house after they moved in

Edit

It looks like many houses in the same area have house names

Hiya, thanks for that, you're probably right the house may have been re named. Shame it doesn't also give a number. Am trying to locate the couple who lived there in 2002. They previously lived in Sidcup in Kent. Is there some place I could phone to find out what the house if now called or indeed a number for Gonerby Lane please?

Since my last message I found this

Tanner
Theresa A

It's on the Find my Past website but I don't have a subscription to view the address and to see if anyone else is on the Roll. Does anyone have a subscription please that could view the same and send me the details? Her year of birth is 1941.

Thank you K.

On the ER on GR, a Theresa A Tanner was at an address in Sittingbourne, 2002-2011.

This is not your Theresa.

The woman in Sittingbourne married in 1983, and was listed with her husband Andrew in 2002-5, and their daughter Kelly in 2009-11.
A son (Christopher) is also at the same address 2011-17.

Thank you ArgyllGran. It was a long shot I know.

It's possible that your Theresa is still at the 2002 address - try writing to her there.
She may just have opted out of the public ER.

There's a Theresa Tanner in Allington (where Gonersby Lane is) - with a phone number:

Might be worth a try??

I don't know what year that refers to - Friday 30th March is mentioned, so not 2023.

Another mention of her here , re Saturday 24th March (also clearly not 2023):

Or try contacting any of the WI committee:

https://allingtononline.co.uk/allington-w-i/

They'll know which house Neeelrac is - or was - and will also know Theresa Tanner - or at least will know the one in the links in my last post..



Or post on Allington's Facebook page:

Well done again ArgyllGran. Yes this is one in the same person. I'll let you know for sure when I decide how to approach the situation.

Thanks again,

Kathy

You're welcome!
