Hi Phil, I have added a picture of John Wyatt's gravestone, please see below.

Hello Lady P, I thought you would like a copy of this picture that I have had on my pc for a long long time, however, I failed to make a note of where I got it from. I hope this is ok to post it here.

Thank you so much Mikejee, the map and information you have provided gives me a better insight to my grandfathers life, I am currently working on a chronological timeline of his life, although I have had some training, map reading still defeats me. Your help is very much appreciated. Also thank...

I'd like to ask Mikejee if he could tell me which house/dwelling was number 1 in Little Shadwell Street. This is the address that says my grandfather was born there on his birth certificate, he was born in 1904. It is only a short street, and I've walked up and down it, but am confused as to...

What a lovely story, and thank you for sharing it with us.

I was born at the Heathfield Road Maternity Hospital, and my dad was 'busy' wetting the baby's head in this pub the Stork.

Thank you Phil. My next question is, can anyone put a name to the pub?

Here is one of the S/C memorial plaques showing the Woodwards.

Dave M, thank you for posting these pics, excellent stuff. I had partial information for E M Knott, but you have given me more, how I missed the CWCG is bewildering, I have been cross referencing everything so must have confused myself! Suzanne, I do have the info fo H Woodward, but there is...

Hi Janice, Yes, there are a couple of names that are the same as Boldmere St Michael's, and they are problematic. However, if any one can help, that would be great. I've posted the list here because it's mind boggling that I cannot currently find anything. I have found a reference to a Mercer...

I am currently researching the names of WW1 fallen of Sutton Coldfield War Memorial. There are 355 WW1 names on the memorial and I've been successful in tracking down the majority of them. However, there are a few that I am struggling to find and/or find the relationship to Sutton Coldfield. I...
