skylark

Proud to be a Brummie !!
Hello folks,
if by any miracle anyone is going into Birmingham library before it closes it's doors for good, would you do me a great service by looking up the following baptism for me ?

ST JAMES THE LESS 08/04/1903 WILLIAM HENRY HAROLD PICKERING.

Address & occupation of his father would be very much appreciated.

Thank you for looking at my post.

Margaret.
 
I found this on the 1911 census

John Pickering age 31 Brassfounder
Susannah Pickering age 29
William Pickering age 8 did not say any middle names though
Thomas Pickering age 6
John Pickering age 3
Frederick Pickering age 1

Living at 11/100 Gt Barr Street
Do you think these may be yours
 
Hello Carolann..yes this is the family I researching, I have the info from the 1901/1911 censuses & I am really hoping to confirm that the WHH Pickering baptised in 1903 is indeed the same WHH Pickering on the 19011 census & the info on the IGI states that the parents are John & Susannah so it is looking like a match, but I need to be 100% sure.

Thanks,
Margaret.
