Wondering if anyone can help me ,i only have limited resources and have drawn a blank.Looking for any information on John Griffiths b 1791 Worcester(shire) to John and Ann.Have a possible marriage to Mary Ann Bower in Oldswinford 1832 but this is not a definite.Dont have access to 1841 wondering if anyone could locate him possibly in the oldswinford area of Stourbridge.
Many Thanks

Might be out of their area normally found around worcester however the dates fit the census better than the 1832 marriage , food for thought thanks peter

Might be an idea to look at the wits on this marriage see if one is a charles?
so you think Charles Griffiths is bro to a JOhn Griffiths?
is this your line?
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =399095952 can't remember which Charles it was
