Thank you for uploading the photographs of Milton Street. I have a query that perhaps the forum can help me with. According to my grandparents marriage certificate dated 1937, my grandfather Frank Herbert Wood lived at number 72 Milton Street. The marriage certificate also shows Frank Wood (deceased) as being Frank Herbert's father. After a lengthy search on various websites, I still cannot identify with certainty the names of Frank Herbert’s parents. Would anyone on the forum have information regarding the family that lived at number 72? Many thanks, Michelle
Many, Many thanks, this is a new path to follow. MichelleIt's possible that he was just a boarder/lodger for a short period, especially if he wasn't from Bham, and consequently there will be no connection with the occupants.
There appear to be some trees on Ancestry that suggest he was Scottish and there does appear to be a possible corresponding birth registration for a Frank Herbert Wood in Morningside. Not a lot of details available but there is no mmn listed, not sure if that means he was illegitimate and his father's name possible false or something else. I'm not sure if Scottish birth registrations are the same as English.
Many, Many thanks, this is a new path to follow. Michelle
You have been amazing, I cannot thank you enough. MichelleI seems you can see a digital image at ScotlandsPeople, I think the cost is just £1.40. You have to register which is free...
