patchem... I think that is the one I have in my tree, and it now looks as if it could be the one I first posted for in 1901.

Oh Well Done..... I've seen a few Skerrett / Sherrett changes over the years, but that is my first sighting of them as SHERIFF..!!

That is great.
Thank you.

So it looks as if these are 'mine' then.

Thank you everyone.
This is looking promising.

I have a William Henry baptised in Kidderminster in 1871, child of George and Mary Ann
Rather a distant link, - they are descendants of my 4 x great grandfather, so there is a bloodlink, so I'll contact the person who has recently added them to their tree on here.

I'll look again for the family in 1891 now.

1911 the family are listed as SHERRETT

Henry still gives Kidderminster as place of birth
