Hi Astonian

Here are his birth details --

William Jelf 3rd qtr 1900 Aston 6d 336

This could be his marriage --

William Jelf/Elsie M Goldbey 3rd qtr 1923 Aston 6d 1138

Would be interesting to find out who registered his death, you would need to get the certificate for that. I will have a browse through the births for his children.

Re: Billy Jelf

Hi Astonian

William (Billy) Jelf did marry Elsie M Goldbey, 1923 Aston, i have given you the details you need for obtaining the certificate.

The kids ARE registered as Jelf, in the more modern records they also add the mothers maiden name as a further cross reference.

John Jelf was, according to the census barrie posted for you, Williams older brother and that would make him another brother of your grandfather, that would make Mary Ann Jelfs, widow ,39yrs, your Greatgrandmother.
