Many thanks for your replies to my query.

As the address is given as nu 22, I don't think its a square, that would occupy a lot of space and would be well known.

I will go along with it having been written Myelia, by a cloth eared clerk who didn't understand a Lanky dialect.

The suggestion that it is Melia St, OK, but where was such a street in Accy with so many houses. I've been collecting odd street, yards, courts, terraces, folds and square names in Accy for donkeys years, never come across the name.

I'm going to try the Burgess Rolls for 1922, and see if I can find him.

Retlaw.
