Whilst pouring thro Holy Trinity (Amblecote) parish records searching for one of my Rowberries i happened across a Griffiths who appears to be my aunt.No one has ever mentioned her name before and i am completely confused.
Have no trace of her on IGI found her on BMD but after that she disappears.
The record states
Rose Elizabeth born to Charles John and Minnie 30/1/1916 90 Brettle Lane Amblecote
Anyone out there shed any light on this
