The road was still there in the 50's as I lived in Vicarage Rd. and used to walk down near there and go under the bridge at Taylors Lane and up by the Gibbons Rd. power station on my way to the cubs, who met in the Brentfield Rd School. Most of these roads, i ncluding Vicarage Rd, were demolished in the 70,s. I would think that Holly Close or Creukthorne Rd are were Westbury Rd was situated.

Willesden Mary Jane or Mabel COUCHMAN info please.Mary Jane or Mabel COUCHMAN info please. Can anyone help me trace my father's family history? My father was James Arthur Grieve b. 1915 at 4 Odessa Rd Harlesden. His mother was a Margaret Grieve but I have been unable to trace more. His father is not named anywhere. My father was fostered somewhere in this area. A few years ago I posted here for help in my research but nothing came of it. I am now having another try as I have found that my father's foster mother could have been either a Mary Ann (b. 1862) or a Mabel (b. 1874) COUCHMAN both born in Lynsted, Kent. A Mabel Couchman was a witness at my parents' marriage in 1944. On the marriage certificate my father's first names are reversed to Arthur James Grieve. I know it's a long-shot but does anyone have either of these COUCHMAN ladies in their family history files? Please contact me at Mail-me Thanks for reading this and fingers crossed!
