Here's Annie (Baker) on BCC - https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... ver=404494

Is this Joseph Davies - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... ver=404494

Yes I'm convinced, gonna connect up

most of this looks like it is on bcc now.

If you need any more help with Harry hill let us know what you have and we can move to brickwalls to chip away at.
otherwise will move this to arc.

Not convinced about my Lizzie Hill born Netherton. May send for BCert. I will come back to Lizzie and Harry Hill later. Someone on the Hill side came from up north to Netherton on the barges. Grandma Lizzie used to show us a white bonnet -used by barge folk. I think it ended up in the BCountry museum. Like to get things right.

Percy Brettell Jo's father was married to Elsie May Stringer b.1892. The Stringers are in Bank Street No5. Elsie is on BCC.

Mabel, on the 1891 Census I notice that Florence (sister of Lizzie) is 11 mths old but has been added as 11 yrs old on BCC, would you like me to change it? Also there are 3 more children by 1911 who I have added
