There's a Wm Major Dunn School Master mentioned here, a Juryman at the Inquest of the Round Oak Train Accident 1858 Brierley Hill. Wonder if he connected to this family?

The inquest into the deaths of those killed in the accident was opened on 25th August, 1858, at the Whimsey Inn, Brettell Lane. T.M. Phillips was the coroner and Rev J. Bailey, a Baptist minister, was sworn in as the foreman of the jury.
