Trying to find information about my grandmother Alice Brough, my fathers mother, she married John Burrows. Her father was John Brother who married Matilda (?) Their children: Henry, Rowland, Alice (my grandmother), May, Sarah Ann and Ted. Alice was born in Wolverhampton 1880s, when she married John Burrows they moved to Birmingham, where my father was born.

Could you clear up the fact that your grandmother was Alice Brough and her father was John Brother, is that right?

Sorry my mistake, didn't check my typing. John Burrows not Brother.

John Burrows came from Stroud in Gloucester.
Alice May Brough came from WOLVERHAMPTON>
they married in staffordshire< but lived in South Yardley, Birmingham, where my father Alfred Lesley Burrows, was born.
