Sanders

davidfowler

Exiled Brummie
My Great Grandmother, Sarah Ann Buscher was married to a Richard Wilkinson in London. He died weeks before my Grandmother was born and Sarah eventually married William Sanders. They came to Brum early in the 1900's living firstly in Aston and then moved to Alleyne Road, Bromford. Between them they had 8 children (I've found on censuses), although family folk lore suggests 12! Anyone have any more info on this Sanders line please?

Thanks
 
Hi David :) Sanders 1901(Census ? ) Alleyne Rd, Bromford,

After 1901 your best bet is the Electoral Rolls re William & Sarah Sanders
And their 8 possible 12 offspringers :rolleyes:
Also the Telephone Directories &/or Kellys books if any owned Shops/Businesses etc
Good Luck,, JohnY :cool:
 
Thanks John
I've had some good results on the Midland Historical Data website. It's Pay but very reasonable. I'll get myself up to Birmingham Library and have a good long session!

Cheers
David
 
Hi David, do you know if Williams parents were Thomas Sanders & Matilda Storer? If so I have found 3 of Williams siblings so far, they are John, Thomas & Alfred. If this sounds familiar please contact me & I will share what info I have on them.

Sarah Sanders 63
Died 25th June 1926 at 76 Cato Street, Duddeston
Wife of Joseph William Sanders, Railway Goods Checker.

PM me details if interested.

I've sent you a PM but not sure if you got it. Here it is again:

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. William's parents were, I believe, Thomas and Catherine. I'll send you a descendant tree in pdf format if you let me have your email address.

David:)
 
Hi David,

Sorry, have only just checked my emails, I'd love to see the info you have on the family, if you don't mind.

My email address is [email protected]
I'll let you know whether or not I can find a link between us after I've had a good look at it.

this is much appreciated

Speak to you soon
