Martha
was the girl next door who had moved to the area in the early 1900's. Martha was at this time a mother to Fred
Billany who had been born five years earlier. Martha
and John had a son born 15th November 1912 named Richard John Carter .

Richard's entire working life was spent with Hull City Council and
they lived in Chiltern Street for almost 70 years. Richards
mother on one side, Maud and then sister
Anne at the other.
The
houses in Chiltern Street, Hull, were
demolished during the early 1970's to
make way for the extended ground
facilities of Hull Rugby Football Club.
The name Chiltern Street, Hull, is still
featured on the city plan although it
extends only 20 metres or
so. There are now no
residential properties, a
chapter in the historical record of the
Carter/Billany family ceases to exist.

Because of age and failing health, in 1966, Richard and Martha moved to
South Lane, Hessle, to be cared for by daughter-in-law
Doris and son John Richard. Martha died at 10
South Lane in 1971.
Richard died in Kingston General Hospital, Hull in
1978; 3 days after Doris had suddenly passed away.
All were cremated at the Crematorium in Hull.
