 | Wellesley Road, Liverpool, England.
Photo 2009. Pericles P. Negroponte lived at 5 Wellesley Terrace, Liverpool, England, with his sons Paul and Pandia in 1871. The 1871 census shows odd-and-even numbers for Wellesley Terrace and only even numbers for Wellesley Road. The latter exists today; the other street appears to have been renamed Back Wellesley Road and sometimes referred to as Wellesley Terrace. |
