In the 1900 Kellys commercial section there are several Camms, Henry Charles; James Frederick Peach; John Matthew and Thomas William These all seem to be associated with Camm & Co., artists in stained glass, High St Smethwick. there is also a blacksmith , Thomas at Station road Stechford. I don't know if these are connected to your Camm. I could follow up in other years if any are of interest.

In those census listings is a Minnie Camm - presumably the same Miss Minnie Camm who in the 1950s lived at 16 Albert Road, Kings Heath, next door to my late uncle Albert Longmore - a typical old spinster, but very pleasant! :)
