My oh my! Many thanks to you all for that information. Yes they were members of our family although we never knew of them until my brother started doing our family tree. Thank you Lyn for your kind offer I would love a picture of the memorial. Again many thanks to you all for your help.

Thank you mike. What a shame I will never know the connection :( The notice was in the Birmingham Mail on November 25th 1940. It seems strange that nobody from the immediate family were involved with arranging the funerals at Yardley. Oh well another enigma. Thank you again for your time.

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place. I am trying to find out about a MRS ROBERTS living at 15, Wells Road, Sheldon in 1940. She arranged the funeral of Harry Bott who was killed on the night of November 1940 after his wife and daughters were killed. Harry was from Gooch Street. I am...

In 1841 Ann & George were living in Garrison Lane with their daughter Emma who is age 3 & the name is transcribed as COLLIDYE George died 1884 age 69 Birmingham Vol. 6d Page 116 Q1.

I have found Ann's marriage to GEORGE COLLEDGE. Ann's Surname is transcribed as MARKLESO. They married 14th Sept. 1840 at St. Martin Birmingham. Witnesses are Thomas Wolfe & HANNAH MARKLEW so our Hannah does exist. Ann is listed as a servant and George is a Brick maker (His Father's name is...

I think that is the same Hannah that I found Janice ................ so it is probably the wrong one sadly. There is a baptism for ANN birth 12 Dec. 1817 baptised 6 Jan.1818 at St Martin Birmingham but there is no image of it. States CHARLES LEA MARKLEW and ANN as the parents. FHL Film...

In the St. Martin Birmingham Baptisms of 1830 Sarah Alice Marklew is baptised Sept. 13th and the next day (14th) her Mother Ann is baptised but under the name of Ann JAMES. There is a note under the baptism saying "Now the wife of Charles Marklew". Ann's parents are stated as David & Ann...

Ann wife of Charles was baptised 14th Sept.1830, yes 1830 one day after their daughter Sarah Alice (b. April 1830) , baptised 13th Sept. 1830 was baptised at St. Martin Birmingham. It states "Ann James parents David Ann now the wife of Charles Marklew" and they are living at Buck Street Ann...

On Freebmd there is an ANN MARKLEW died 1876 age 79 years vol. 6d Page 33 could this be the Ann you are looking for? In 1871 Charles is still living at 24 Garrison Lane age 79 yrs. he is down as a Widower ; Agent ; and as a lodger. I have found Charles & Ann with a HANNAH (baptised 1822) age...
