Beryl is with Arthur, Annie, Kenneth & his wife on the 1939 register. Born 1924, I've assumed she's Arthur and Annie's daughter even though there's no relationship info. All this is inferred from the search results, I haven't seen the transcript or scan. Could have been adopted maybe.

On a side note, the 2 daughters of George Moody and Emma Banks must have had a sad early life. Dad died in 1901, mom died in 1904, and then they appear to have gone to live with their aunt (dad's sister) and uncle in Runcorn and she dies in 1909.

Dev, the weatherman did his piece from the top of the Octagon on tonight's central news. Topping out ceremony takes place in the next few days.

Charles Disney Milward. Born 1891 Lickey (Hills?), son of Charles Frederick and Emily Constantia. He was the managing director of a needle manufacturing company, she was born in Cape Colony. Charles travelled extensively to N America.

Assuming it is the Arthur Albert Sear b1906 (1 Aug) he married a Cicely H Cullimore in 1931 and there appear to be only 3 Sear/Cullimore children registered - Kathleen H, Kenneth W and Arthur J. Arthur Albert Sear snr appear to have had 6 children - Arthur, Kenneth, Kathleen, Margaret (died...

Assuming that there's no poetic license then with the position of the church and Aston Hall then it must have been to the north of the church. Difficult to say how far north, maybe between the river Tame and the church?

Sorry, that's my mistake, it's the same person - all should be Henry William.

There are no matching birth reg. for the siblings mentioned for the 1882 William Henry Morgan, so I'd say the 1885 is still correct. He is the one associated with the address you gave. There don't appear to be any children from his first marriage.

William is with parents and brother in 1911 listed as Hotel Cook in Aston. All their ages look to be a couple of years out, William is listed as 29.

Mother Mary Ann Leake, though on his birth mmn appears to be listed as Lake, m1874 Aston. Siblings Esther Ann Mary b1875 Bham, John Isaac b1876 Aston, Thomas Emanuel b1878. Kings Norton district in 1891.

Listed at Brazil Terrace, Highgate Road (Aston) in 1901 with parents Isaac & Mary.

Possibly confusing a number people with the name Sears and Sear. There are 2 people named Arthur Sears b c1903 listed on the 1939 Register but they are both Arthur T (Thomas/Tom), one born Aston the other born Pontypridd. One of them died in 1969. However there is an Arthur Albert Sear b reg...

Not the best of pictures but for a 100 she appears remarkably well. A nice read with a couple of little titbits of Bham history.

After Edgar's mom re-married they lived at 23 The Grove, Bordesley Park Road. His mom and sister's family were still there in 1939. All gone by the time of the photo I think but it's near the railway and there are some open spaces which could have been used to keep horses.

Perhaps if you can tell us your grandad's address or name someone may be able to compare the picture to the maps of the time and see if any of the buildings match.

A few interesting things to see (if the OP returns) going further back if I have the right people. Gertrude's parents appear to have been cousins, so a little bit of pedigree collapse and there seems to be quite a bit more a few generations earlier in Gertrude's maternal grandfather's line, 3 of...

I don't understand what the problem is with describing a dog as a mongrel. If you are using it to insult someone that's different.

You never stop hoping that some new record or information will appear that will help your solve your ancestry mysteries, even if it's years later. Every ancestry line ends with a dead end, you just hope it's a good few generations in the past.

She dies later in 1911 and Walter re-marries in 1914 and in 1921 they are living at 203 Heathfield Road with their 2 young children.
