so could be this one esp if JB remembers those names as familiar

Carole might be worth contacting dudley archives and asking them if they have an employers list
for a certain date 1911? for the above industry

Thanks for that everyone...

I have sent emails to Dudley archives.
Is there an archives in Halesowen...excuse me if thats a silly Q

Northern Lass i saw that you added my grandfather on BCC thanks...it looks great... would you like childrens names or do you only put children born in UK. Frank and Mary had 5 children but only 2 survived to adulthood and Aunt Edith from previous marriage. Both my mum and her sister are deceased.

You guys have given me lots, but i still dont know all the steelworks in that area... is there a book about it or something?
Linell do you know the steelworks name at that address?
Jimmy thanks for those sites.
Cheers Carole
