Sorry, I can't find them - perhaps Shera will have more luck?

 

[leslam]

However, I have found them on Free BMD:
[SIZE=+1]Births Mar 1898 [SIZE=-2](>99%)[/SIZE][/SIZE] CORNISH Thomas Henry Birmingham 6d58

[SIZE=+1]Births Dec 1894 [SIZE=-2](>99%)[/SIZE][/SIZE] Cornish James Alfred Aston 6d296

Different church then?

 

[Shera]

no, i cant find them either so as leslam says it is probably another church. the aston one would probably be aston parish church - maybe the other one too

Thank you both for your input..the births are certainly them, I was hoping for a baptism to give me more info on their address etc. My thanks again to you for your help.

Margaret.

My initial thought was to suggest that you order one (or both) certs from the Bham register office. However, looking at the dates, I've had a look at the 1901 census and they are at 26 Vincent Crescent, Balsall Heath (Ecclesiastical parish of St Paul's, Civil Parish of Balsall Heath). This comes under Kings Nortong Reg district, so they moved after Thomas was born - so I think that you will have to order certs if you want to know where they were living when they were born - unless you trawl through all the possible parish registers.

Full details of census:

Cornish James A , Head, Married, 36, 1865, Ornament Mounter, b Birmingham
Cornish, Catherine, wife, Married, 36, 1865, Seamstress, b Ripley, Surrey
Cornish, James A Son, single, 6, 1895, b Birmingham
Cornish, Thomas H, son, single, 3, 1898, b Birmingham

Hope this helps a bit

Morning skylark, Hope this may help, a Joseph (Joe) Cornish worked at BSA Tools, Kitts Green circa 1949-1966? i think he was a widower, he had two sons. Len.
