Hi Chris welcome to the forum


we are running with this family via Mumbles posting here
viewtopic.php?f=29&t=2291

1911
BARBER Christina FRENCH John Smethwick, St Paul Sandwell Register Office 9/4/239
and Johns sister
1920
BROOKES Reginald V FRENCH Alice West Bromwich, Christ Church Sandwell Register Office 23/12/131

We have these for look ups but if you have the info already that would be really helpful


So if you scroll down and take a look at that post of Mumbles in the Black Country Section and then
if you wish to post your own query in that section we can help you
this thread will then be for saying hi to you in the Introductions

You know about the Black Country Connections tree and can pm me if you are interested in that
Cheers Jan
