hi,only just found this forum.my nan and grandad were francis(frank) and violet diffley(fisher),
My mom was Susannah(susan)diffley she married Raymond Rea .my auntie violet was married to Kenneth moore.and my uncle arnold was married to Edith .
so my family comes from lawley street,my eldest brother was born there, my greatgrand father arnold was a friut hawker by trade and then he owned a shop but i cannot find anything about it,where it was ect.the family history is mostly around the aston,garrison area. my mom and dad met when they worked on the railway together in what was then called vauxhall.
 
On the marriage cert for Francis Diffley and Violet Fisher the occupation of Arnold Fisher is labourer. He is listed as a fruit hawker on 1911 census.
