TAYLOR

Born a Brummie
We have visitors at the moment and they have been most impressed with all the kind help from my "cyber" pals and have asked if I would try with their family name so I said I'd give it a go as I am sure someone will come up with an answer :wink:

The Taylor family lived in Aston. there was CLIVE, SYDNEY, EDITH and ALFRED. Clive was the father of my cousin and she has never known her grandparents names. Can someone help please? :)

Many thanks: :D
 
Hi again Rowan,
the only Clive Taylor that i can find in the timescale born in the area.
1901 census 6 George Terrace,Tevor st. Aston (ST Clements)
Harry Taylor age 40 b birmingham Filer in Electro plate trade.
Louisa age 35
Harry 8
Sydney 7
Clive 6 (second christian name Douglas)
James A 4 (second christian name Alfred)
Edith May 6 months Dorothy Annie 6 months (same registration reference they are definately twins.)
Have a feeling it might be them!
regards Alberta.
 
.Harry Taylor married Louisa DOILE in 1889 ref 6d 138 ,given that Louisa was 35 in 1901 I found on the birth index a Louisa D'Oyly born 1866 Aston.
Checking Clive Douglas Taylor birthcertificate will verify, ref 6d 345.

1881 census

Name Relation Marital Status Gender Age Birthplace Occupation Disability
Charles DOYLY OR DOYBY Head W Male 46 Banbury, Oxford, England Bedstead Maker -Iron

Oh Alberta.....you are a genius!!!!!!!

Thank you again, so very much. Our visitors will be so thrilled. thank you :D :D :D :D :D :D
 
Hi, I’m the granddaughter of Clive Douglas Taylor. I have been trying to follow my tree but am struggling!
The above info was amazing, thank you, however I can’t seem to get a marriage certificate for his parents- no matches. I’m trying to find his Grandparents names as I believe online of his grandmothers was Welsh from the Swansea area possibly ( I have a picture of her in full national costume).
If anyone can help I would really appreciate it Appreciate it! Thank you in advance
 
If you mean the marriage of Harry Taylor and Louisa then Alberta gives a possible reference in post #4. But does suggest checking Charles birth cert for confirmation
 
I'm not sure it is right as the only Clive Douglas Taylor I found seemed to be reg with mmn Jones. I then wondered if Louisa was a widow when she married Harry
