where is the most likely church or burial ground covering King Norton deaths, looking at years 1750-1880
thanks

That does depend on where about in Kings Norton you are talking about. I have just taken advice on this myself for a death in 1879. If near the Kings Norton Church, then St Nicolas is the one you want. Nearer to Highgate area, Balsall Heath, which was under KN) it could very well be St Mary's, Moseley.

no idea where, some locations i have areKings Norton/Dritwich/Northfield/Yardley/
and you ever hear about 'Bishampton?'

 

[Shortie]

Taking each district/town in turn, Kings Norton is covered by what I said in my previous posting, Droitwich is not Birmingham, so cannot assist here, (Worcester Record Office may be able to help - they have a History Centre actually in Worcester and they are very helpful). Northfield may be Lodge Hill Cemetery, depending on date, but prior to its opening, the local church would more than likely be the place. Yardley has its own cemetery, but Bishampton is a name I seem to have heard, but know nothing about. Have you Googled Bishampton, to see what you get?

Wychavon! small parish in Worstershiire, thnx for the tip.
checking again most of places i stated were where they were born, most died in Kings Norton but which area it does'nt say

 

[Shortie]

Have you got them on the census nearest to the time in which they died? That would assist greatly, I am sure. Failing that, the death certificate is the only way, which is a bit of an expensive job. If I can help, just let me know, and I will do my best.

Shortie,
no is the quickest answer, got 1851 census Edward&Jane with her father, as married 1848, but i guess 1841 would help, will ask lookup on 1841,
