Woodhouse families

I have the surname Woodhouse in my tree. The family came from Herefordshire and some of them moved to Birmingham in the late 1800's
Have you got any details of your Woodhouse family?
 
Thanks for your answer.
My WOODHOUSE was possibly from the Birmingham area.
ROBERT WOODHOUSE born approx 1781 -1785 (Birmingham?)
He was a gun-maker but settled in Exeter Devon.
Also he could have been with the Military or Militia because two of his children Jane was born Ireland abt 1827 & Robert born Scotland abt 1823
His son RICHARD WOODHOUSE b. abt 1825 Coventry or Birmingham.
Daughter MARY ANN WOODHOUSE b. abt 1820 Birmingham.
MARY ANN WOODHOUSE married John Beer & lived in Battersea Wandsworth and according to the 1861 census she stated she was born Birmingham Warwickshire.
I'm sorry this is not much to go on but if you can connect I'd be so pleased to hear from you.
