*Look up done! * -Stuck! Griffiths family post 1871

Post by Nutsy »

Hi all!

I seem to be hitting brick wall after brick wall with my Griffiths family research.

I'm looking for the children of Edward b abt 1824 and Elizabeth b 1829. Elizabeth was born in Rowely Regis and that was where the family also settled. I have them there in 1871, but don't seem to be able to find anything after that. :?

Children are..

Benjamin b 1847

Ellen b 1849

Sarah b 1851

Thomas b 1853

Edward b 1856

George b 1858

Ann Sohpia b 1860 ( I have the info on her as she emmigrated to Australia)

Eliza b 1862

Elizabeth b 1866

Robert b 1858

John b 1871

Clara b 1874

What I'm trying to find is marriages, children etc.... yet don't seem to be able to find anything. Thought the boys would be the easiest, but there doens't seem to be anything on them. :?

All the children were born in Rowely Regis.

Hi Nutsy have moved this from Brick walls to our Black Country section....don't think it will be a brick wall for long! :wink:

Do you have the info going back on this Edward Grifffiths?
Do you know his parents?
as we have one on the Connections site here...

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections

Do you know Elizabeths maiden name?
If not that marriage can be looked up

If you do know it what is it and we can add all this to the Connections tree
