There are a lot more later baptisms, none for Edward and Mary.

A Grace Southwick aged 80 was Buried 8.3.1820
John Southwick was a Land Owner in the Cradley 1782 Enclosure Book
John and Grace above must have been Edward's Parents?

Hi Linell

Thanks for your efforts, you have GRACE SOUTHWICK buried 8.3.1820, i have her LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT which states she died on 1.9.1820 a widow.
She fell out with her son JOHN (one of her 8 children) and left him a shilling. I have got as far back as WILLIAM SOUTHWICK (1678) & MARY BUTLER (1672)
plus children. Possibly further, but still searching. The only sticking point is EDWARD SOUTHWICK & MARY ? What is her surname and when did they get married. I have quite a lot of information on the SOUTHWICK family, some related to me, some not.

Whickham Boy

The only sticking point is EDWARD SOUTHWICK & MARY ?

just thinking
this may be a proved date of the will which is different to a date of death
so I will check the actual burial

where is it at?
and will leave info till we can verify

which church

Hi NL, it was St John's Halesowen.

The Burial I found 8.3.1820 was from the Cradley St Peter's Regisiter, as you say NL, the later date is probably when the Will was proved.

HTH from Linell.

[linell]

I've already put most of the information on BCC
