Hi Holly Welcome

some of those names are from the Black Country area and we have (if you scroll down the board)
a dedicated section on Black Country Genealogy.
If you click on my website logo on my post (left) it will take you to the
Black Country Connections tree that some of us are involved in

Thanks Northern Lass I checked all my surnames on the bcc site, hard to believe I couldn't find a connection.
I'm certain at some point there will be its a matter of filling in my blanks
