Hi anyone know anything about thee above pawnbroker? I have relatives by the name of Watt that were owners(I think) then numerous of the children continued on time frame seems to be 1800's-early 1900's. The shop was located in Birkenhead!  Census records show they lived in Thornbury Park Road East Birkenhead
