Thank you very much for your kind reply. I will check the census. Hopefully they will still be at Rock House in 1911.

As you've pointed out........Sidney GREENWAY was living at Postal Address: Rock House, Symonds Yat, Gloucestershire 1911 Wales census , Goodrich, Hereford, English Bicknor, Monmouthshire
- we've discovered Symonds Yat (with other GREENWAY's relatives) are in Symonds Yat, but on the 1911 census for England, - confusing...

Thank you Slowhands.
Yes the house and the family that I was looking for.
Sidney Greenway m. an Annie Giles whose mother was an Elizabeth nee Dangerfield.
Elizabeth was the sister of my gt gt grandmother Cecilia Dangerfield.
The address was on an old postcard 1912ish.
I will look at the map and also your directions to see if I can see where the house was. It was kind of you to reply.
