Rachel Family History

Night nurse

master brummie
looking for any information on my grandparents George & Lily Rachel. Known to have lived on King Street, Bridge Street and Thomas Street Smethwick. They married in 1924. They had 9 children 2 boys and 7 girls. ( George Rose Ivy Beryl Violet John Joan Patricia and Valerie )George died in 1942. Lily eventually moved into the flats by the LA pub. Would love any information, pictures of the old streets or anyone who may have known them , gone to school with them or worked with them. Many worked at the brewery or GKN Heath Street.
 
there is a "Rachel family" on ancestry, access to all available- with photos of Lily and all the children (none of which remain alive, unfortunately). Hope this helps.
