I am trying to trace my Grandmother's family.

Edward Davis b 1872 (West Brom) d 1921 (Edgabaston hospital)
Married (3 June, Walsall 1895) Sarah Banks b 1873 d?
Miriam b 1900 (my Grandmother)
Elsie May b 1906
Evelyn Maud b 1908
Frederick b 1910

In 1901 and 1911 listed as living in Oldbury, Staffordshire

I know that Edward's death was registered by his sister, Sarah Jarvis, which suggests that his wife had already died. This would fit with the family knowledge that my Grandmother's mother died before Miriam reached adulthood.

My Grandmother lost contact with her family and my mother (now 85) would like to know more about her mother's family. Can anyone help?

Thank you
