Thanks very much for adding more relating to Amos Barker bn 1868 and his wife Lavinia Stout and her husbands and children.

I've received the death certificate of Amos Barker (bn 1868) who interesting died of a rare disease:
13 May 1897, 66 Granville street, Amos Barker, 26, miller (journeyman), Addisons Disease, informant L Barker widow of deceased present at death 66 Granville Street Wolverhampton

thanks for putting on his burial information which ties up with this.

It looks like this thread is about ready for archiving. I've checked through and the following info was already listed on the forum and could be added to the BCC site:

2 additional children (Jesse jn and Albert) in bold could be added to the bottom of the 1920 Census Michigan USA information already on Albert Wagg page (Head of household) - sorry I missed them off the list earlier

Bellevue Ave, Detroit, Wayne, Michigan USA
Albert Wagg, Head, 39, Married, bn England, Electrician Automobile Shop
Minnie Wagg, Wife, 48, M, England
Freda , Daughter, 14, S, England
Charles, 12, S, England
Jesse Barker, 27, step son, M, bn England, Married, Labourer Automobile Shop
Mary Barker, 27, wife, M, bn Canada
All immigration year 1911 except Mary 1919
Jesse jr, Son, 8, bn England
Albert, Son, 6, bn Michingan


There is other information from US/Canada relating to Jesse jr and his father (Amos) Jesse Barker bn 1891, but we could come back to this starting another thread later if we wish, and archive this thread now.
First I'll continue working on a tree I'm developing for my friends 60th birthday in a couple of weeks - some of her ancestors seem to be from Bilston Staffordshire!
After that, hopefully I'll have more time to contribute info on here.
