Perrygrove in Bromsgrove?

Hello! I have traced a number of relatives called Perrygrove who were nailers in Bromsgrove. I know there are Perrygroves in Bromsgrove now. Anyone have any connections or any details? My gt gt grandfather, John Cooper, a pearl button maker, married Mary Ann Perrygrove on 20 May 1867 at St Saviour's Church, Saltley. I have other details but some of the connections are difficult to make. Would love to hear from anyone who knows any more or who might help. Many thanks. Oh yes, nearly forgot, 'up the Villa!' :)
 
I live in Bromsgrove and have done for a number of years,i dont think that i have ever heard of the name perrygrove round here. Bromsgrove is a fairly small place and it is deffinatly one of those towns where everyone knows everyone or someone who knows them. Try going to www.parishmouse.com and searching the records for bromsgrove there i found it quite useful when i searched for NOKES. if i ever hear of the name and any useful information i will let you know. good luck:smile2:

Hi Badger
Perryfields is an area on the edge of the town,as far as I'm aware there is no connection between Perryfields and Perrygrove.

I am researching John Cooper as he is also my gt gt grandfather. Any details would be gratefully received.
