Have you got access to any census records? I just did a quick search on Ancestry and the first 20 or so entries are for 1881/91 census in the name of Nourse from Aston or Birmingham. If you don't have access give us a name or two and a few dates.
 
Yes thank you I have them on the census, but I can't find what happened to them after 1912 to date. Philip Nourse and family is who I looking for, he was a sculptor and stone mason. believed to have been in partnership with Roddis & Nourse which was confirmed by the 1912 kellys directory, but don't no when they stopped trading or what happend to the after that.
 
Roddis & Nourse, architectural & monumental sculptors, 223 and 225 Brookvale Rd, Witton.. They were still listed in the 1953 Kelly's
 
Hi onourse: You sent me an instant message a month ago but I was away at that time. You asked me about Margaret Nourse. I do have a connection
to a school friend in Australia who is friends with Margaret although I believe Margaret lives in England. If you haven't located the family I will get in touch with my friend and ask her for a connection. I know Margaret's family were the Nourse part of Memorial head stone makers Roddis and Nourse. I will send you an Instant Message re this as well.
