Samuel St in Hoon Hay – First appears in street directories in 1953.
A tiny amount of information from the library website. I couldn’t find out how the street got it’s name and it was possibly a person’s name. I checked Ancestry website and cemetery database with no luck. Not much information on Papers Past and it was described as Crown Land in 1955. Several ads for sections in the1950s. Several death notices plus engagement notices. Several drain complaints in 1960s. There was a house fire in 1971 and another in 1982. There was obviously another house fire recently and this house dated from 1910. Most houses on the street were built in 1950s with several built in 1960s. There is an entrance to Gainsborough Park from this street.
