I need help looking for my ancestors who I have found in Birmingham, St Martins and Aston Juxta, Little Alne, Wooton Wawen, Henley, Beaudersert. I am looking for 1600-1800 please. I have found 2 names on the apprenticeship records and odd entries in these places. The family trade was "papermaker"

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Ann
