The search for his family has thrown up various connections, this is him in 1841:-

Emma DA 8 Cakemore
Ann DA 7 Cakemore
Harriet DA 4 Halesowen
Felix Detheridge SL U 15 Nailer Cakemore
George Turner LG U 18 Nailer Lapal
John Parsons LG U 22 Nailer Hasbury
How does Felix connect to John Detheridge![]()
Tycho Gaunt Married Eliza Detheridge or Sewell 5.3.1840 St Thomas (I presume Felix is her son)
Tycho then Married Caroline Deeley 5.6.1854 St Thomas Dudley
Will add these Marriages for look ups.
If anyone can throw any light on this would be most grateful cheers from Linell.
Linell,
I suspect I have a connection to the Coley-Smiths: have you come across a Harry Coley-Smith - he married my grandfathers cousin, Gwen Pearson. I don't have an exact date but presume he would have been born around 1910 give or take a few years, probably in the Halesowen area.
