Does anybody know of Rock House /Symonds Yat around 1912.

Would be interested to know who lived there or where it was.

Many thanks. Patsy

Looking at the 1901 Census: Herefordshire, Goodrich, around Symonds Yat

there is ROCKLANDS, Coppet Hill : with Hugo L PEARSON, age 57, Navel Officer, Vice Admiral with wife, sister, daughter and 8 servants...

or

1911 Census, Rock View, Coppet Hill: living in 5 rooms

Mary COWMEADOW - 71 - Widow, born Upton Bishop
Rachel JENKINS - 23 - Niece - born Goodrich
Edwin GILBERT - 8

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...

If you then follow the 1911 census looking at the names of nearby property :-

You find a Cliff Cottage , which today is used by a property across the ferry on the Doward http://www.geograph.org.uk/showmap.php?gridref=SO556163

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.
