Where do you link on bcc and with whom

Post by Northern Lass »

I was thinking what would be interesting would be to see then how we all do connect.....ie what and where is the connection between us members and BCC

so off the top of my head..let me see if I can remember some
It would be great if there was one we all link back to.
We can do yhis as a separate thread

I connect to Gardener via William Rose b1852...that is our connection
I connect to sp1 via Shakespeare's but can't remember his connection..mine is Ann Shakespeare b 1790 ish
I connect to Dennis via the Inetts
I know Rob and Lulu connect via the brothers who built club house can't remember name was it wood house
And Kate and I link to ann wood house who we think is from there too

Looks as though I'm "Billy No Mates" apart from Lavy and Gwen with my Belcher line, but I'm not sure if they are members on the forum anymore. :(

Dear All,
My maternal grandfather and grandmother are Joseph Stokes (1896) and Ada Hiscocks (1899); about as black country as you can get, being born in Rowley Regis and Halesowen (Gorsty Hill) respectively. They emmigrated to Australia in 1920, three months before my mother, their eldest child, was born. The family has been in the Black country for centuries, with family names: Stokes, Read, Perry, Westwood, Parsons, Parkes, Hodgetts, Hiscocks, Moy, Andrews, Cutler, Tinsley, Allen, Adams, to my 6th generation back from myself. So, if you have any of those family lines in your Black Country ancestry, I'd love to hear from you.

As far as I know I don't link to anyone. I did see Adams mentioned - my Great Grandmother had a step sister who married an Adams so maybe

My main surname connections are Taylor, Manger, Round, Smith, Billingham and Preece all based Black Country/Rowley and Stoke Prior.

Hi there. This is my first post, so please forgive me if I get something wrong. I think I am connected to twiglet and Linell, through my Gill/Hampton/Stringer lines. May also be connected to Jan through Hampton's. My grandfather was Arthur Gill (1888-1951)

Hi is it this one

https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... ver=521329

if not which one is it on Bcc.

If you go to the black country discussion section we could have a look at what we have on your grandfather
and what you have to maybe add to the ancestor.
I don't connect to hamptons so might just have added some for the purpose of research.
Twiglet and Linell can be reached via a pm (private message) on this forum.
welcome :wink:
