Sparkhill Police Station [including officers from Acock's Green, Hay Mills and Yardley]

I acquired a 1905 photograph of police officers at Sparkhill Police Station and with the amazing help of Matt Pooler [he runs the Worcestershire Police History] website, he provided a full list of names. As I had a good pic I could zoom in on the collar numbers. Anyway, for those interested in this area or had ancestors serving in this branch of the police, this is a useful photograph : https://www.midlandspubs.co.uk/phot...ices/police/index.html#Birmingham-Police-1905
