Hortons

Hi

I am looking for descendants of my great grandfather Henry Horton b 1854 who married Harriet Ledbrook. I have found that they had 9 children, one being my grandmother Edith Lucy b 1891. Edith Lucy married James Alfred Taylor.

The Horton family address on the 1911 census was 3 Byfield Passage, Birmingham

Any info on the Horton's would be marvellous :)

Regards

KayT

Re: looking for Hortons

Hello,

May not be much help but who knows ????
Solicitors in Bromsgrove name of Thomas Horton.
Also have seen The name Horton around the Halesowen , Black country Area.
Never know your luck, but that is one of the pleasures of finding folks.
