Do these Ooions fit in with the ones decended from Mary Dodd in my tree?
They moved to Chicago in 1910 and renamed themselves Anians.

I found 3 out of 4 marriages that we were specifically looking for and 1 that was a find so here goes:
18 April 1895 at St Andrew's Church, Walsall
Thomas Onions, 25, Bac, Bricklayer, 72 Burrowes St, (father) Elijah Onions, Miner
Fanny Elizabeth Brown, 21, Spin, 44 Birchills, (father) William Brown, Boatman
Witnesses: Joseph Cartwright, Charlotte Wilks
14 October 1872 at St John's Church, Pleck, Walsall
William Brown, 19, Bac, Labourer, Green Lane (father) Frederick Brown, Labourer.
Rosannah Tiff,17,Spin, Pleck, (father) Joseph Stiff, Labourer
Witnesses: James Hodsonx, Martha Hodsonx
25 December 1854 at St Peter's, Walsall
William Beard Brown, F, Bac, Curty?, Plefton? St, (father) William Brown, Hannah?
Margaret Allen, F, Spin, Green Lane, (father) Richard? Allen, Carter
Witnesses:??? Allen, ??? Allen
(The writing on this one was appalling but I did my best - italics are a best shot!)
I couldn't find the marriage in 1871 of William Beard Brown and Ann Allen that someone on the forum found -
My extra unless you have it is Thomas's younger brother
1 June 1895 at St Andrew's, Walsall
Robert Onions, 21, B, Iron Worker, 72 Burrowes St, (father) Elijah Onions, Miner
Jane Elizabeth Hillback, 22, S, 70 Burrowes St, (father) Samuel Hillback, Chain maker
Witnesses: John Gildow, Martha Hodson.
Mg it would be a shame to waste any of this excellent info
so do add and connect ( if it does) to the Black Country Connections tree
it will then help anyone else that visits the tree
