It's a bit confusing as the children seem to interchange their first and middle names. As an example - this Son uses the name Ambrose in 1881 and Sidney in 1891

Again, i'm not sure! Would be it normal practice to marry your neighbour? ( I know i wouldn't.. hehehe)

Maybe it might help for me to get William's birth cert to get he's mmn.

Do you think we might be able to go further back on Louis through census?

Louis and Rosannah's marriage?

There's a Gregory family living at 68 Florence Road in the 1901 census, perhaps she's related to them.

It looks like Caroline Moira Gregory, rather than George. She's listed as a boarder. Apologies - I should have put 69 Florence Road, not 68.

Sheena Report 2 Sep 2007 18:34

Not sure on the marriage's, but the census looks to be them.

Just out of curiousity, who is Cavroline Moria George 36 on the 1901 census?

Thank you for checking.

Can I get a look up on WIlliam Horace George b.1900c and Elsie Wood b.Dec 1898 Ladywood, Birmingham.

I have Smethwick as place of birth for William, and parent's as Lewis George and Rose (surname unknown at this time).
I'm not sure if this information is correct, so would appreciate any help with these pair.

I also have siblings, although no DoB's for them.

Bernard, Harold, Ampthis, Elsie and William.
__________
Elsie's parent's are George Wood b.1864c no PoB and Emma (again surname unknown at this time) b.1867c

Many thanks
