Morrall

[Robrose]

Does anyone have any information on the family of Francis Morrall (Journeyman Needlemaker) of Redditch and his wife Mercy Annie Russell (2nd Wife) who lived at 49 Edward Street Redditch in November 1909.
From what I can ascertain Francis died in 1919 at Redditch.

Thanks Ladylinda, That puts us on the right track for my father's family. My Father, Francis Henry was born to Francis and Mercy in November 1909 and isn't mentioned in that census information. We would still like to trace any living members of this family if possible.

Thanks Alberta, That information is most helpful as we had no information on Francis' first Wife and children. We would love to be able to trace any living members of either family.
