Hello, I am fairly new to the forum, I am trying to trace any family members called Hill, they lived in Clark street, Birmingham and worked on the canals, my mother in law was called Eileen Hill, her mother was called Catherine (Kate) she got pregnant with Eileen whilst in service. The family were really sicilian, and for some reason changed their name when they came to the uk to help build the canals, the year they arrived is unknown. Eileen was born in on December 16th 1921 and she was illegitimate, because of the 'shame' of this older relatives have passed away and took with them the secret of who her father was. I do not have Kate's death certificate or Eileens full birth certificate to hand as they are at my house in italy, but will be able to retrieve them in the new year. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou.
