More recognisable for me in picture 2 but only just. I only knew this area for a few years as I attended the Mathew Boulton School of printing from 1969-72. Even then the Uni buildings dominated things on the left side of Aston St.

Thank you for your ideas...will try them.

Well comparing his both marriage certs they are both " funny"..... Ages....on 1st they both say they are 3 years older that they were. Maybe they needed to be over a certain age...they were really 19 and 18. on 2nd Charlie says he is 36 when he is actually 30. Names...on 1st his dad is Harry and...

Yes Janice thanks...I think it was on here that members pointed me to them last year. I think maybe these had a bit to do with the couple splitting up....seemed to coincide around the times that 2 of their children died.

Drove down Raddlebarn road the other day and saw that the old Workhouse arch entrance has been retained.

From all the records we have he seems to declare things differently everytime. His 2nd marriage cert is hillarious compared to previous things.....lol

Wow thanks for them. It seems he prefered to be called William.Have to do searches with William to see if anything turns up.

By digi I meant I cant save it to the PC so I could put it on here.....I printed it off about 18 months ago. I only had the one off Findmypast for a few quid. If you could put them up that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Its hard finding records for our family through the 1920's. They had 1st child in 1920....lost one in 1921.....another in 1923 and finally one in 1924 that died in 1927. The 1st child ended up with father (1939 register) and the last died at Western Road but home address was at Fatheres parents...

We have wifes Mother born at 44 Dudley Road and at Library of Brum I had to see the workhouse infirmary records and her GMother entered day before and left after 10 days.....so it was just the hospital and not workhouse.....this was May 1923. Then we had the Death Cert of wifes Mothers youngest...

Just re- looked at the 1911 census and it says 11 court - 1 house and looking at the map i see its court 11 so must be same house.....

WOW...thanks for this.......amazing there was at least 2 adults and 6 children there at one stage......and hoping Wifes Mother could be found to have lived there as well in her infancy as she seems to have been abandoned for a period of time and then living with her Nan ( the head of this house)...

Does anyone know what year the Map/Photo was in #14 please. Interested as had relatives in 1 back of 66 Cheapside around1920 with last record 1935. They were in 11 court 1 house before 1920. 1/66 looks like its in between Harrisons and The Star works.
