Hi my name is kathreen james and I am trying to find a school entry for my grandmother and was wondering if anybody could help me ?
The back ground I's that my nan was born celia grace Philip's the eldest daughter of albert Philips and sarah ne wall .
Celia was born 24 July 1895 lived her young years in allcock street in deritend. She had a younger brother albert who was born in 1899. Then her dad was sent to the Boer war where he was a high ranked officer .
Then tradgey struck in 1901 delia who was then six found her mum dead in the courtyard on the 15th december .cause of death probably heart failure which found strange no inquest.
It was then thought that sarah sister mary jane ( ginny) came to look after the children . When Albert came home from service himself and mart jane (.ginny) started a relationship and had three children john Phillip's, william and clarice. The oldest of the siblings were born 1908
Now it was law until 1907 that once you could not marry a sibling it was illgial to do so.
looking at the census of 1911 and other listing it states that Albert Phillip's and Ginny were married in fact they actually took over Sarah and Albert's.
Now I mentioned ginny b4 . The reason she was called that was that celia refused to call her mom and certainly dod not allow her children to call her nan.
The thing I need to ask about 7 years sho we went to the heritage centre and by chance saw a entry in the allcock street school admissions. Thst stated that celia was a admission to the school in 1907 and that s previous school.was kings Norton school . Then a exclamation as it was realised that the book.we were reading was in actual fact cl8sed as some entrants were younger than 100 year rule . This is still the case 7 years on .
Could you please advise where the kings Norton school registers exist and if so where they would
Celia was not well treated as a child and was quite feisty who actual voice her options about the above
Thank you t kath xxc
