There are two Williams registered in Walsall in 1850, and I haven't yet found a marriage to match one with Rheda (or Rhoda) ....

I'm trying to find the birth and parents of Jane Tonks. I have two birth dates, 1833 and 1838 ... I'm leaning towards the 1838. She married Richard Osborne in 1853 and her father was shown as Samuel, no idea of her mother. She was born in Staffordshire, possibly Walsall.

Thanks.
