hmmm now then ... that's interesting .... a

Frank Kett ..... my husband's great uncle (in other words his nan's brother) was a Bob Kett and the family used to talk of him having a Pawn shop. My

husband doesn't know the names of his nan's other brothers & sisters, and we are wondering if there is a connection. Wonder if Frank kett was a brother

to Bob?

The family used to say that Bob Kett's pawn shop was around the Breck rd area (probably around the 1930s) .. we've asked some older

residents in the district but we can't find out. There was a pawn shop but not of that name.
Kett is not a common name.
