Collier Row, Essex
Does anyone have the same connection as me?My gggrandmother used to tell stories of her father building Collier Row, Southend, Essex, England.She was born around 1880s, so I guess he would have been born around 1850s or 60s.The story goes that he was an alcholic and one day whilst under the influence signed his row of houses over to some prostitutes!I don't have any other information, don't even know his name.My gggrandmother's name was Florence Emma Collier and I know that she had a brother William (?).That's as far as my info goes!Pretty useless I gues, but someone may recognise the story.I think there were more siblings, but no one has any info.
Thanks
Sally
