Deptford The White House, Creek Road  

Has anyone heard of the White House in Creek Road? I'm tracing my family tree - my family all come from Deptford (we're all still fairly local) and on my great grandmother's baptism record it states her parents were living at the White House in Creek Road. He was a waterman on the Thames.

I can't find any record of it anywhere.

Cheers

Lucas Vale Primary school.
My wife & her cousins all went to Lucas Vale primary school in the late 50's. They lived in Strickland St and Admiral St ( both off Albyn Rd).
My father was one of the Bowley's that worked at the bakery in Harton Street and in Albyn Road.
Iornic that we were loking at "Google Earth" last night to see how things have changed.
We were married at St John's church at the top of St Johns Vale.
We came to Australia in 1980 and live in Queensland.
