Post reply -->London Walworth Roy Stemp 30 Nov Walworth Cooper Family 99 South StreetDoes anyone remember my granddad, George William Cooper (1895-1956) and his family (father George Edward, 1871-1948, mother Polly (1870-1954), sister Ethel (1897-1981), sister Marie (1904-1995), sister Gladys (1907-1979), brother Albert (1910-1932), brother Sid (1913-2002). They lived at 99 South Street (renamed Dawes Street in 1937) from about 1903 on until the start of the war. I believe the side of South Street (now Dawes) where they lived was demolished in the 1960s to build a big council flats Mail-me Post reply -->London Walworth Tom Cooper 14 Nov Walworth where was southwark regisitry office in walworth roadWalworth ABC Cinema.
