WELCOME TO THE BAYLISS LINE. This blog has been created for my family. By "my family" I mean all those who are related to the Bayliss family either by blood, marriage or even relationship. There are, of course, other Bayliss families not related to us but this blog has at its heart a very specific family who had their origins in Gloucestershire. I am connected to that family because my mother was a Bayliss and it was her curiosity that started my research back in the early 1990's. So, what are you likely to see on this blog? Well, as it is a blog, I want it to be as entertaining as possible rather that a dry listing of facts (that is for Ancestry.com). I will, hopefully, be posting entries on our ancestors and relatives, on the places where they lived, and the historical times they lived through. I have an extensive collection of photographs of people and places which I will, of course, be sharing.

I'd like to ask anybody who reads this blog to give me some feedback. I'd really like this to be a two way thing. It sometimes unearths new information and, to be honest, it gives me encouragement. There will be two ways of providing feedback - either through the comment button (you will need a Google account for this) or via the e-mail address which appears on this page - alternatively, ring me. Now scroll down to read the latest entries.....and, of course, via Facebook.

RESIDENTS OF UPPER HOLLOWAY

44, 42, 40 Pemberton Gardens.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PAGE IS BEING CONTINUALLY ADDED TO
                  As I delve further into the story of our family the importance of certain streets becomes more and more apparent.  Pemberton Gardens is the most obvious example. I thought I knew where everybody had lived  but I'm discovering new connections all the time. Our family and relatives lived in Upper Holloway between the 1850's and 1990 and moved around quite a bit. Below is an attempt to list the houses where they lived at various times.   As they appear the streets will be listed in alphabetical order.  If you find a mistake or omission please let me know. Female members of the family are referred to by their maiden names but + between two names denotes a married couple.  If a name looks unfamiliar don't worry, it should appear on the blog at a later date - but, of course, if you are really curious you can always contact me. I have, as usual, only gone as far as my parent's generation but have signified my generation by "and family", even if, as in the case of my own mother, only one child is involved. Names can be checked on the Bayliss Family chart available elsewhere on this blog. Flats are in Italics and some streets in adjacent districts have been included. "and family" denotes family members of my generation or younger.  An asterisk * before a street name denotes that the street no longer exists, likewise, one before an address denotes that the individual building has been demolished as far as I can ascertain - corrections will be made as information becomes available. Please note that no addresses are current.


*Anatola Road (N.19) Exists today only as a walkway through an estate of flats.

    Hi there, Just to let you bloggers know that there is a very interesting book called "London Born" by Sidney Day. He was born at the Archway in 1912. He told his Granddaughter many a story about the area and she was captivated by them. She decided to write them down in this book. According to the book, he was still alive in 2005. The publishers are BCA (CN140036) I got my copy on Ebay. You can also purchase from ABE books at next to nothing. I was born and bred at the Archway, as was all my family (30's - 1998)and I didn't put this book down till I finished it. Great read. Almost forgot, Great Website too.

    Hi Ernest Bayliss

    Whilst looking for London Buses (my father worked at Holloway Road Depot in the fifties) I came across your
    Blog for Upper Holloway. I too lived in Pemberton Gardens and all your information was of immense interest to me;
    However, searching for your email address on your blog I came to a dead end.

    My son came to stay for a few days and let me send you this message via his Google account.

    Hi there, Just a quick line to let you know that at the moment on e-bay there are some fantastic photo's of the Archway at the turn of the century. Log onto e-bay and call up Junction road or Upper Holloway. I normally look every week for old photo's of the Archway and they are normally repeated but this batch is unique. Giesbach rd, The old Church before Archway Central Hall, Junction Rd before the Co-op and the crossroads (Junction/Holloway/Highgate/St. Johns) by the Lion, all around the turn of the Century.

    hi, I was born in 7 ellenborough road n19 then moved to no 8. My dad was Jim Perry he married elsie spencer whose family lived at 22 ellenborough rd and when I was very small I remember the bombed sites at both ends of Ellenborough road.We are also related to the Montagues and the O'sheas. I remember Vics the newsagents and Spears sweet shop opposite the school. I believe my brother in law Brian Fox lived in Pemberton Gardens. After moving in 1964 we lost touch with a lot of people there.

      My nan and grandad as well as all their children lived in Ellenborough Rd. His name was Robert Spencer (robbo) he was a bricklayer and only had one arm, other lost in war. Elsie was his sister, didn't Jimmy move down the road into the flats in Sussex way? We moved out in 1962

    My family (Stewart) lived at 5 Witley Road. The house was owned I believe by my grandad and my dad Charles (Charlie) lived there with my mum Doreen (dot) and brothers, Ray, David, Terry and Allan, as well as my uncle Harry and his family. My dad had 4 brothers Ted, Harry, John and Bill (who died in the 2nd World War) and his sister Rosie who died when she was 7. They moved out early 1960's before I was born. My mum lived in Windermere Road before marrying my dad, their house backed on to Witley Road. Would be very interested to hear from anyone who knew my family.
