My branch of the Cull family arrived in B'ham in 1877. My 2nd great-grandfather, Thomas Cull traveled with his young family from Bredon to work on the railway. In 1891 the family was living in All Saints, district 11 at Primrose Place. Until my father's generation, the family lived their entire lives in and around King's Norton and Selly Oak. My father, and aunts were born at 15 Daisy Farm Road (the house is still standing) in the 1930s.
I will check my genealogical record to see whether I have an Alfred Ernest in my lineage.
I myself have lived most of my life in Ontario, Canada having immigrated in the mid-1950s. I was born in B'ham in 1951.
