When visiting the library and checking the Kellys (I know I keep harping on) I found the Underhills in Grange Road off the Coventry Road. They didn't refer to the business/trade as Fish and chips but as fried fish dlr ...deliverers?

Thanks Aston, the marriage of Henry and Agnes was in 1913, I'm assuming that William Brazier must be Agnes Brother since he was still living at 13 back of 129 in 1963, I was hoping that since it was a later time it might jog someones memory and maybe I could put this into some sort of context...

I've been told that there was or maybe there was a fish and chip shop on the Coventry Road that may have been run by the Underhills namely Joseph married to Emma nee Williams in the 1900's. Apparently a family photo was put in the local Birmingham Choice newspaper in 1987 the photo may have been...

I can't find any record in this book Monyhull 1908 - 1997 A History of Caring by Deborah Hutchings that refers to a campaigh to have a memorial stone.  I have scanned the photo of the plaque which I have attached.

I still have contacts with staff who work in one of the buildings on the Monyhull site site so if there is any information you want I can help.

I trained and worked at Monyhull Hospital and have very fond memories. The plaque you are referring to is in St Francis Church which is one of the original buildings that remain on the site. I don't recall any burial sites at Monyhull though the hospital did have a mortury.

I have just picked up your Allen connection so you were already in the know about 1841 census. I have had a thought maybe the Stanyard buildings came before Bartlett, John may have taken them over and renamed them? I found Thomas on the 1851 census...............it didn't take him long to remarry.

On the 1891 census I could only find Whites and Bartlett Buildings at Key Hill. I am attaching a diagram on the indenture relating to John Bartletts freehold, leasehold estate in Hockley. Though there is no reference to Stanyards.
