Hi Diane.
Were you aware that your grandfather was the adopted son of Emma
Sleigh.
In 1891 she calls him her son but I thought it unlikely because of her age
and then in 1901 he is adopted son.
1901 197 Wheeler Street ,Lozells
Emma sleigh age 65 widow b. birmingham
John W age 24 b. Erdington
Victor age 13 b. Erdington
1891 Ravenhurst street,Deritend
Emma Sleigh age 55 widow
John W Sleigh age 14 son
Mary Sleigh age 66 unmarried sister in law
Victor age 3 son
1881 Sutton road, Erdington
William Sleigh age 45 boot and shoe dealer
Emma age 45
John william sleigh ,son,age 4 b. erdington
Agnes maria Sleigh,neice age 10 b. Uttoxeter
It may be interesting to obtain your grandparents marriage certificate to see if Victor names his father.
