Adkins/Kerr/Woolley

[Janesm]

I have had a fantastic time searching through the mountains of info that must be on this great site.

Am looking for info on the Woolley family who arrived in Birmingham in 1914 & lived in Bellbarn Road then all over the city.

Also the Kerrs who lived in Erdington - Jaffray Road and the Adkins of Kings Norton if you count that as Birmingham.

Am new to research so any help gratefully received.

Thanks for that Darby,

Gordon might be a cousin as my dad had a couple of brothers that we never had any contact with.

Jane,

A little bit more info, Gordon had a cousin by the name of Jones who lived with them, I think originally they all came from Wales.

Morning Darby,

That is interesting, one branch of the family did come from Wales but they were Davies. I wish they had less common surnames.
