ARC TBC Mary Ann Lawton baptism and marriage?
Posted: Thu Oct 14, 2021 12:53 pm
Hi
This Mary Ann was mother to Jane Severns. Jane's birth place is given as Soho, Warwickshire in the 1891 census, but she was actually born in Walsall so that is a bit of a puzzle.
However, her mother was given as born Birmingham in both the 1851 and 1861 census, and I wondered where exactly in Birmingham that was.
