Samuel Smith. 10.
Emma Smith. 5.
// Leah Green. 25. nail m.

Elizabeth Green. Dau. 13. Nurse.
Ruth Smith. Dau. Widow. 44. Nailer.
Emma Smith. Daughter 16. Nailer.
Anne Smith. Dau. 3.
George Jepsher. 43. Lodger.
I can’t find birth details for William but have a birth certificate for Elizabeth GREEN:
B/1837/Dudley-Union/Rowley-Regis/No 60 - reg 27th October 1837
Elizabeth Green, daughter of Leah Green, born 2nd October 1837 at Garratt's Lane; no father. Informant was Leah Green, Mother, of Garratt's Lane, Rowley Regis.
I have no more information for Elizabeth, but this may be William:
M/1852/Dudley Parish Church/No 185
Marriage on 25 December 1852 at Dudley Parish Church of William Green, Miner, and Ann Morris. Fathers: no father for William; Hugh Morris, Miner. Witnesses were Robert Cole and Sarah Morris.
