ta
Teresa GodsonAge:11
Estimated Birth Year:abt 1870
Father's Name:Thomas
Mother's Name:Teresa
Where born:Bham, Warwickshire, England
Street address:Cheapside No 316
Thanks Kaz,
This has got me a BIT further......
but I don't think that teresa is Thomas Godsons child...!
Thomas Spyers Godson and Theresa Stoll (the Stoll family are already in my tree, yet another German connection!) only married in 1875 Aston...
Thomas Spyers Godson had a previous wife (married 4Q 1864 Birmingham - Mary Bate (or Mary Ann Tweed) - from BMD, who didn't die until 3Q 1872 Aston, again from BMD.
So I think that the children George (15) and Teresa (11) are probably from a previous marriage of Teresa Stoll, or are illegitimate.
Am working on this.....
