Dea x

YES!!!

This is Ann's second husband!!!

Dea x

You are very welcome!!

I am 'senile' myself so I know what problems you are encountering (tee hee!!)

Dea x

P.S. - The only football team worth following, according to my husband, is MANCHESTER CITY - Raa Raa Raa !!!

Though, I have to say, he has lost a little faith in recent years!!

Dea Xxx

Am I missing something here Dea...William Thatcher marries Ann Walters!...Shouldn't the daughter be Maria Thatcher..or is this Ann's second husband.?

I have looked at this a couple of times in the last few days,but because he moved to Birmingham after he was born,and he was still in B'ham on the Absentee Voters List in 1918,I was looking for just B'ham!!

Coming from you,I now realise that West Brom is North B'ham,and that this is whom I'm looking for.!!!!!...Their football team is not much to shout about!!!

4 Certificates to order now.

Told you Senility was taking over!....Many thanks Dea.x.

Marriages Jun 1895

Perrett George Theodore W.Bromwich 6b 1189
Walters Maria W. Bromwich 6b 1189

Dea x

Mind you, I can't remember why we were looking for this marriage ??

Dea x

Historic site very good Jonesey,lots of info!...I'm still stuck on George Theodore Perrett ..Born 1866...and his wife Maria..The above History site gave their address in Birmingham from 1925 'till 1935 on voting lists..."BUT"...I still can not find out Maria's Maiden name, or when they married, and have no access to 1911 census!

Help please!

John,

This site should be able to answer your query as to who was registered to vote at 14 Eltham Grove in 1939:

http://www.midlandshistoricaldata.org/SHPLoader.aspx?x=elect_birm.html&sc=1024

Unfortunately it is a pay to view site but I believe that it is quite cheap to purchase vouchers to view and this can be done using a credit/debit card.

Good luck.

If you put George Theodore Perrett in google search the first one on result page is the tree with Lola on.
The owner of the tree is Sharon Anne Murphy,she married the son of Marigold.

1911 census didn't have a relevant Michael Jordan so maybe he also had died resulting in Catherine John Thomas and Elizabeth going into the workhouse.

Maryb

.Does anyone have access to 1911 census to find if Michael Jordan ..Dof B 1864 was in Manchester or Birmingham at that time.

I also have Michael Jordan living at 14, Eltham Grove,Kingstanding, Birmingham in 1939...Is there anyway I can use this information to find out who the other occupants were?

Ni How!...Pinyin for "Hello"...Xie Xie!..pinyin for "Thank you"..Mandarin characters are way above me!..Perhaps Senility has Started to set in!!
Many,many thanks to you great ladies, Dea, Mary and Jonesey for the work you have put in to assist me, and my often confused and yet "Intrigued mind into this journey into my past.

I will now apply for a Birth Cert; for John Thomas 1902, to confirm his father!, and also the Marriage Cert; for Michael Jordan and Mary Ann 1892, to check who their parents were.

Mary...You mentioned a relative of Lola Jordan has a tree on Google that mentioned my mother, my father,and his father...How can I access this info;?

Talk to you later
