Houghton family

Thanks for replying. I know it's not much to go on. Charles and Rise Houghton lived at 40 Cope Street before 1913 and had two daughter's, Adelaide and Lilian. Charles died in WW1 in France 1917 and Rose age 32 in 1924 at their home in Cope street. The girl's went to live with their Gran.
Adelaide married Richard Stretch and lived in St Luke's Road Balsal Heath and had two daughter's, Barbara and Irene Stretch. She re married some year's later Fred Gwilliam and had three more children. Around 1955-56 the family moved to Highgate street/ Road until they were rehoused in Kingstanding in 1959.
I would be very grateful for any information.
