That's wonderful! Can I ask where you found that info or am I being dense? Thank you so much!

Really kind!!!!! Always amazes me how helpful people on this site are!!!! Wonderful, thank you.

Thank you. I am looking for a James Tonry who married Anna Greenway in 1903 in King's Norton (I think). Anna went on to marry a great great uncle of mine. I don't know anymore.

Anyone with any info on the Tonry family Please?

Anyone have any info on the Toon name/family please? I have a relative living at the Acorn pub, Severn Street, Birmingham

Thank you
