Birthplace not quite right?

Census 1911:

Address: 21 Bridge St Ilkeston County: Nottinghamshire

3 children born, all still living.

PRITCHARD, Walter Head Married M 27 1884 Blast Furnace Filler Oldbury Worcestershire
PRITCHARD, Sarah Ann Wife Married 4 years F 26 1885 Oldbury Worcestershire
PRITCHARD, Mary Elizabeth Daughter F 4 1907 Oldbury Worcestershire
PRITCHARD, Martha Daughter F 2 1909 Oldbury Worcestershire
PRITCHARD, Walter Son M 1 1910 Oldbury Worcestershire.

EDIT: Oldbury covered by W Bromwich reg district.

This is the parent's marriage.

Marriages Sep 1907
PRITCHARD Walter Arthur W. Bromwich 6b 1525
TAYLOR Sarah Ann W. Bromwich 6b 1525

Possible siblings after 1911.

Births Mar 1912 PRITCHARD Violet Taylor W.Bromwich 6b 1655
Births Dec 1914 PRITCHARD Gladys Taylor W. Bromwich 6b 1583
Births Dec 1918 Pritchard Hilda Taylor W.Bromwich 6b 1277
Births Dec 1920 Pritchard Arthur Taylor W.Bromwich 6b 1609

You would obviously need to order certs to establish actual parentage of the above (the names are too common to be certain they are related)

I'm assuming by the time i've posted this someone will have uploaded the 1911 for you.

Is this your family in 1911
Walter is recorded as born Oldbury, Worcestershire. A mistake possibly as rest of family born there?

You would have to search on Freebmd for possible marriages for the female siblings. If they married the deaths would be registered in their married name.

If the family stayed in the Ilkeston area then there are these possible births

John Sep Q 1912 Basford, Notts 7B 483

Possible that Henry Pritchard b 1914 Basford, died aged 0
Death Sep Qtr 1914 Basford 7B 199 age 0

That certificate might tell you if you are looking at the right family.

There are several choices of a death for a John Pritchard b 1912 unfortunately but this marriage ????

John Pritchard to Fanny Walker Dec Qtr 1934 Basford, Notts 7B 653

June - hope you understand what I am trying to say here

Gladys and Henry are from 2 different families.

There is only 1 Walter Pritchard to a Sarah Ann marriage as posted above and her surname was Taylor. The marriage was in West Brom RD which covers Oldbury

However, in 1911 they are to be found in Ilkeston and although Walter Jnr is noted as born in Oldbury, there is not a matching bmd entry, but there is one in Basford, Notts

(The same can be said for Martha too). Mary Elizabeth eludes me at present either as Pritchard - or Taylor possibly born before parents married - in either RD

There is every chance of more than 1 Pritchard/Taylor marriage and the children born after 1912 come from 2 such marriages.

So are the children born in Basford RD Walter and Sarah Ann's rather than the ones born in West Brom RD

Marriages Sep 1907 (>99%)
GUEST William Owen W. Bromwich 6b 1525
POOLE Gertrude W. Bromwich 6b 1525
PRITCHARD Walter Arthur W. Bromwich 6b 1525
TAYLOR Sarah Ann W. Bromwich 6b 1525


The 1911 record of Walter's birth as Oldbury could simply be a mistake on the part of the father

You can look for births siblings yourself on freebmd..............the MMN is on the index after 1911.

Also, use that site to look for marriages.............
