Individual Note

In the 1881 census, Sidney, aged 2 months, was living with his parents James and Susannah at 2 Barm Villa, South Shoebury, but by 1891 the family had moved to Alpine House on the High Street. In 1901 the 20 year old Sidney, a bank clerk, was living with his grandmother Susannah Monk at 35 Hamfrith Road, Forest Gate, West Ham, with his brothers Percy and Frederick and his cousin Claudia's family.

After his marriage in 1908 to Lilian Newstead in Romford, the couple moved to Ilford, where their children Guy and Gwen were born.

By 1920 the family had moved to 32 Leighton Avenue, Leigh on Sea, according to Kelly's Directory for that year. After the death of Sidney's father James in 1933, the Glasscocks bought Thundersley Lodge, "downsizing" after the war to Rayleigh Lodge, another of Henry VIII's hunting lodges. By this time Sidney's younger brother Jack was part of the household, moving with him and Lilian in the mid 1950s to the Red House, a large Victorian villa opposite St Peter's and St Paul's church a mile outside the village of Hockley, where they lived until Lilian's death in 1959.
