My great grandfather, Charles Henry Smith, served a mission in England from 1900-1902. On August 22, 1900, Charles noted in his journal that he went to see his grandmother, who lived in Westbourne Grove. He had a nice visit with her.
That grandmother was Ann (Barrs) Altrop. Having been widowed in 1891, she was living with her son. William Alfred. In the 1901 census, here is the family, living at 138 Westbourne Grove.
Just over 119 years after my great grandfather's visit, I went back to pay my respects to my third great grandmother.
