Just realised that Mary's sister Sarah Ann Attwood born abt.1843 Marries Thomas Grove born Halesowen 1841 (could be Cradley Halesowen) 23.10.1859 Cradley. Thomas must be related to the Marriage Witness? Best Wishes Linell.

Hi Linell,
I think there is sufficient evidence to make connection especially ref. Witnesses at marriage and neighbours on Census ?
