Linnecor family

T

proper brummie kid
Does anyone have any information about the Linnecor family who lived in Aston?

In particular I'm looking for anything about the wife of Alfred Linnecor born in Birmingham in 1907. I believe this was Annie Ballard born in 1907 Aston. The parents of Alfred were Arthur Linnecor and Sarah Jane Wright. In 1891 the family were living in Miller Street, Birmingham with daughter May and sons Arthur and George.

Then in 1911 with more children the family were living at 7 Shefford Road, Birmingham. I understand that they had at least ten children.


Thank you,
Twirls

Thank you Barrie and Ladylinda,

Barrie, how do you know that Sarah E Ballard had lost three children? From where did you have the info?

All this info is helping me to build my family with detail I've never had before.

Hi Ladylinda,

My, you've been busy! What a lot of babies and so many deaths. How distressing this must have been to their parents. I do hope these were not all children born to Annie.

Thank you for this I'll keep it all for reference and I may be able to link them to other Ballard families within my tree.
