Born a Brummie
We have visitors at the moment and they have been most impressed with all the kind help from my "cyber" pals and have asked if I would try with their family name so I said I'd give it a go as I am sure someone will come up with an answer :wink:

The Taylor family lived in Aston. there was CLIVE, SYDNEY, EDITH and ALFRED. Clive was the father of my cousin and she has never known her grandparents names. Can someone help please? :)

Many thanks: :D
 
Good morning JKC, the years we are looking at are the late 1890's.
early 1900's please.
 
Hi again Rowan,
the only Clive Taylor that i can find in the timescale born in the area.
1901 census 6 George Terrace,Tevor st. Aston (ST Clements)
Harry Taylor age 40 b birmingham Filer in Electro plate trade.
Louisa age 35
Harry 8
Sydney 7
Clive 6 (second christian name Douglas)
James A 4 (second christian name Alfred)
Edith May 6 months Dorothy Annie 6 months (same registration reference they are definately twins.)
Have a feeling it might be them!
regards Alberta.
 
.Harry Taylor married Louisa DOILE in 1889 ref 6d 138 ,given that Louisa was 35 in 1901 I found on the birth index a Louisa D'Oyly born 1866 Aston.
Checking Clive Douglas Taylor birthcertificate will verify, ref 6d 345.

1881 census
