Iommi family

sorry I missed that, just catching up...ill check it out now.
Is this Nechells? :) How amazing would it be , as the house is still standing if there’s still stuff up in the loft. That’s always been my dream, that I managed to come across belongings. :)
Far fetched I know. But great least there’s one house so far still here :)

ill leave this up for a while and delete it, I only plan to make my tree public when im no longer here.

I think you may have a couple of errors.

The one quite far back - Mary Baker who I think was born 1794 in Aymestrey, Herefordshire the daughter of a William and Mary Baker and who died 1851 in Ludlow. Also I think her husband, William Russell, probably died 1865 in Ludlow.

The other was the year of birth of Joseph Lambe, son of Joseph & Nora, which appears to be 1934 not 1931.

I welcome you to change them if you don't mind.
 
Re : Thomas Smith's occupation given on Elizabeth's marriage (post #493) and the 1901 census (post #515). First word is coal but can't make out the second word. It looks to be the same word but doesn't seem to be hewer or haulier.

Probably something obvious but just can't get it.
 
Yes sorry, getting my names mixed up again.

Yes, coal hewers are usually down the mines. My nan's family were coal hewers in Chesterfield. So, wasn't sure.
 
What are your thoughts on this, so within feet of where I am locating Giuseppe & Marias burial location, Ive found a wide concrete area, just under some soil and grass. Which would be strange in the middle of where people are being buried as you often want just soil so its easy to dig up first. So I checked with chatGPT and it said as Giusppes grave was private, that would of been purchased for family only, 75+ years and it wasn't uncommon after all relatives were in that they closed it with cement/concrete. These types of graves usually had a headstone too, but that I cannot find yet..
Also found a leg bone sticking out one of the graves. Its a shame how neglected this cemetery has gotten.
