Hi there on behalf of Glen Perry who asked for some info on Frederick John Wallace, ive a few more details to add to it. Frederick John was born 8/6/1879 & died 26/9/1965. He was married to Prudence Potter who died in October 1948 & they lived at 95 Avenue Place, Avenue Road, Aston Manor. Their children were Frederick, Lillian, Leslie, Albert, Prudence & Bernard. Bernard was born 1/7/1922 & died 14/12/1983. He was my grandad. Does anyone out there know them or of any living relatives, we would love to find out thanks, Laraine.

Hi Laraine & Glen my family name is Wallace, I haven't found a Frederick John, but my grandfather had an older brother John Wallace born 1869 and my great and g.g. grandfathers were also named John - do you have any details of Frederick's
ancestors. It could be we are distantly related.
