my grandparents were Sarah (nee Casey) and William Locke they may have lived in corporation road and or carrington street. can anyone help me with occupation, war records or anything in fact to do with family history?
The Locke family were living at 455 Corporation Road in 1911. Have found some details of the family going back to a William Locke born 1819 in Ireland. Let me know what info you're looking for (pm if you prefer).
are you any relation to the Lockes who lived in Sumner Rd?
My deceased father had some brief contact with that family, have some fuzzy recollection of a tale about a pub they frequented possibly in Duke Street, run by a woman called Glenn Bowe, a family also based in/around Corporation Road between 1920/40s.
might be a connection my mum was barmaid in Half way house, my aunty Kitty worked in the castle by lairds
Half Way House on Woodchurch Road? If it's the same Lockes my father mentioned, they were based and drank around the North End.
The half way house on the corner of corporation rd and Patten Street north end,

That looks more likely, thanks for that helpful info. Could be the very same place my father knew of the Lockes from
I know Chris Locke but that's about it.
