I had some of the information from the censuses and from parish records but had nothing to confirm that that William Steventon was THE William Steventon hanged. Sorry to sound a bit thick - but how do you know that these 2 men are one and the same, particulalry as there were supposedly a lot of Steventons in Tipton, Oldbury, Rowley, etc at the time? Newspaper articles very helpful also,
cheers, Helen

we have 5 on bcc last one hannah c 1828 with william first one with john c 1830 so this leaves very small window for his death late 1827 to late 1829 how many other william steventon from oldbury die in that time ?
