Coley

Have quite a lot of info on the Coley's

Would you be willing to email me your Coley research please ?

Sorry can't help but I am often looking for the Colesley family and get nowhere. In particular Elvira (Cissie) Colesley who was my mother's maid of honour just after WW1. The name seems to have disappeared.

Re: Coley

I have a William Coley living at 38 Gilbert Road Smethwick. He and his wife Gertrude (Williams) lived in the same house for years.

I have no information beyond that except one name Joseph, we assume Coley. Probably Williams father.

If you have any information on this family it would be a great help.

Hey there Shera the true brummie.

Thank you so much for the info. I have the 1891 census for Joseph Louisa and William living at 1 Comberton Terrace, Barford Rd. It now confirms Wolverhampton as the birth place for Joseph which is a big help. I might be able to back in time with this information now.

H i guys
just looking at the names coley and hinks
for some reason this name hinks is ringing in my head , and this hinks family had opened a shop up around the year of 1957 given a year or two
either way from that year they sold alsorts of things from pegs to kettles jugs plastic buckets and baskets mops and brooms
they had the lot and it was along side of the queens head public house along the spring hill and close to the spring hill passage and the corner of inglby st they gave alibones competition because they was on the other side of the rd that sold that sort of things in those days
i had to go to this shop many times for pegs and a varity of thing over the couple of years they was there
but eventualy they moved thats why i recall the name hinks if there is any connection i do not know
but it could be worth for there connetions
best wishes astonian ;;;;;;;
