Thanks, I always try to back up a paper trail with a dna confirmation if possible.

Have not seen the census for Clara and WA. Will look into it more. I have Nancy Tiz(z)ard fairly well documented with primary sources except for marriage cert. Not sure how she went from Dorset to Warwickshire. Yes, Have Fredrick T House and Ada Emma Vaughan's primary documents. Little mystery...

Thank you for this. Since I am not very familiar with the geography this passed me. I will order the cert.

I am working on my family brick wall. William Charles House [1858-1939] is my GG Grandfather. On census records he states he is from Reading but not able to connect him to the William House names found there. I have him in a partnership relationship with Nancy Tizard House from Dorset. No...

Freers Farm, What do you know about it?? My G Grandfather had a close friend Joe Freer and his wife Mary Ann. Mary Ann and Joe took my grandmother in after her mother died and raised her. Long family history. I wonder if Freers Farm is connected???

My GG grandfather and his son were both Milk Deliverers in Birmingham late 1880's-1939. I have been trying to determine if there was a registry for milk deliverers and what dairy they could have worked for. They lived in Aston and Ladywood.

Lived in Aston. Both were milkmen. William Charles House 1858-1939 Fredrick Tizard House 1891-1948 m Ada Vaughn m. Florence Bills Nancy House Dangerfield William T House Dennis S House Alwyne C House Raymond R House Fredrick C House Ronald J House

My mother attended Conway Girls Preparatory School in early to mid 1960's. She was Head Prefect. It was girls only at that time.

True.

Ok, thanks. In census documents William is listed as a milk carrier. Any suggestions as to finding his marriage and birth documents? William and Nancy are listed as parents at Alice Mary's baptism

My great grandfather was a milk man at 111 1 back Great Tindall St. This thread has helped me with ideas of what his life would have been like. He died in 1948

Here is my great grandfather's address

In 1911 he lived at 101 Grosvenor St West. You are so helpful thanks
