    Stechford baptism lookups - Fellows

    Hi, I am new to this forum so I hope this is the right place to post. On the 1911 census for my great grandfather, it says his parents had 7 children, only 4 of whom were living. The family is as follows: 1911 census: 7 Winstanley Rd, Stechford, Warwickshire (Ref: RG14/18652, Schedule 201)...
