| The Foster family lived and
operated a tailoring business in
Sheffield, England when the city was a centre
for the steel
industry. Pictured left to right are Sidney Snowden, Samuel
Jepson, Kate, Lillian Sarah, Colton, Diana Emma Snowden, Hilda, Esther
Emily, Richard, Alice, John. |
 |
| This picture at Spital
Hill in Sheffield, taken in 2001 shows the five, original, 19th century
row houses above and behind
the commercial buildings. The Foster family lived for many years at number 157
(#8 in the early census),
second from the far end. |
 |
| This view of the backdoor of 157
Spital Hill in 2001, shows the incredible durability of these
houses. The bricks, mortar and slate are going strong at 150
years. The second storey entrance leads to a modern suite. |
