Jane Byrne nee Ward was born circa 1868 in Alcester Warks. I don't know when or where she married James Byrne but on 23 December 1894 they had a daughter Eva Mary Byrne at 38 Holte Rd Aston Manor.
In late 1898 they had a son James Henry Byrne. :D

Jane is on the 1901 census staying with her parents at Millward St Aston, probably awaiting the arrival of her big brother Henry, who emigrated to NZ in when Jane was 10, and who was due to arrive for a visit to his home land. :D

The only other piece of info I have is that Jane was present at the death of her mother Hannah Ward on 24 April 1910 at 41 St Andrews Rd Aston. :(
I am not sure whose residence this was.
Jane was worsted weaver in 1901 census. :roll:
Any help greatly appreciated

Has any one any other clues which I could follow up?
 
James and Jane Byrne -an update

Hi
Just received the marriage cert. and hope my meanderings may now make sense to someone!
Jane Ward married James BURNS Girth Weaver on 26th December 1892. Their children have been recorded as Eva and James BYRNE. The 1901 census records them as BYRNE as does Jane 's mother's death cert.
How were they known in Aston Brook - I have no idea maybe a Brummie can help me understand Brummie English!!! :roll:
Anyway at the time of the marriage they were living with Jane's brother John Ward at 28 Phillips St Aston Brook.
When Eva was born they were at 38 Holte Road Aston Manor and could possibly have been at 41a St Andrews Road in 1910.
Hoping someone may have some ideas where to look next! Is there a school which might have records of the kids for example.
From Marlene in the Middle Earth :D
