    Lea Family

    Hi Lady Linda, you stated the on-line Rolls finish in 1955. Do they state who was still living at 157 Bolton? I am trying to figure out when the daughters and son possibly left the house and got married. Ancestry.com only has the census up til 1901. Thanks ahead of time if you are able to help...

    Army Pay Corps

    Can anyone tell me what the Army Pay Corps were. I have a picture of my dad in a uniform. He looks extremely young. He was born in 1930. The picture looks like its from 1945-1950. He never told me he was in any type of military organization. Thanks ~ Linda My handsome daddy :)

    She was listed in 1901 as married, but Thomas wasn't mentioned then either. There is a word that I cannot read in the 1901 census under employment for Ann.

    Birmingham City Police 1839 - 1974

    My great grandfather was Thomas Edward Williams, 1881-1949.... He lived in Birmingham and was a police officer. I know it was before the dates you have listed, but thought you might like to see the 2 pictures I found.

    Lea Family

    I would assume that is it! Yes those are all her children and I would say 1874 would be right. Thanks so much for that information. I only have up to the 1901 Census. Was Thomas on the 1911 Census? I still have no date of death on him. Sometimes this can be so confusing and other times it falls...

    Hello again~ I am looking for the Lea side of my family. Nellie Lea is my great grandmother. She was born in June of 1879 and died June 1925. Her father was Thomas Lea (1852 or 54) and her mother's name was Ann. I cannot find a maiden name for her mother other than her married name "Lea". I...

    Yardley Cemetery

    Hazel at Yardley Cemetery was very helpful. She found my great grandmothers burial site. It has room for 3 graves. Apparently only 2 are being occupied. The other is my Grandmother's sister. If anyone is going to Yardley Cemetery any time soon I would be so appreciative of you taking a look...
