*Arc tbc *Roland /Rowland Harris
Kaye has done a look up and I have added it here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =707291924
could do with finding Roland/Rowland on census prior to marriage in 1863
his father is a John horsenail maker
Wits are....Philip Harris...could be a bro?
and it looked like Truman/Ann Harris
need to confirm dob for John and check not on census already
also Rolands ma would be good

All added here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =156881417
Linell has Caroline Harris marrying John Oliver
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =357527139
Could this be the same Caroline Harris?
Can anyone find John Harris in 1871 and who he married?

Re: Roland /Rowland Harris
Hi Kaye, I have Caroline's father as Edward, she is a bit older, born about 1846? So probably not the same one. Caroline lived in Windmill Hill once Married to John Oliver, they were Methodists, help build that Providence Chapel at Colley Gate.

Re: Roland /Rowland Harris
Hi Kaye, I have Walter Oliver born 1873 Married to a Louisa ? Couldn't find their Marriage do you have it? There children were Winifred 1899 and Walter 1901, lived Windmill Hill.
I have Edwin Cox, not gone any further back with him as it is out of my connection range, have too many people already
Have you traced the Parish line back, think I put it on BCC, they connect to loads of families.
Thanks for the info on Edward and Ann Harris family. I've only entered Caroline into my tree as she is the only one that connects to me. We could link the whole of Cradley if we put our minds to it
Best Wishes from Lin.
