Frodsham Street still a busy street with many original buildings. Most shops are on the smaller side rather than store size. Therefore possible your ancestors shop still there. |

Have you tried Historical Directories to see if you can find one early enough to confirm him as a butcher? |

Trying to see if there would be a street plan/Map for Frodsham Street in Chester in the early to mid 1800s. Wondered if it would show shops etc as my ancestor lived there & possibly had a butcher shop about that time. |
