Interesting that his parents lived in Letchworth Avenue, as around this time my Mother worked as a domestic there. Unfortunately I have no idea as to the names of the couple she worked for, but I do remember her saying how kind they were. Perhaps there was a connection, but as with many things like this it's now all a bit too late to find out.
