That's great Linell !
Do you want to add your info or do you want me to?

San

Hi San, great pictures you have, did you take them all? I have to get off here now, if you can enter please go ahead, otherwise I will do it later today, best wishes from linell.

No I didn't Linell, they were all taken and kindly given to us by Steve Cullen.
I think you'll agree that they are invaluable to people who are trying to trace their ancestors?

I must get off now but whoever has time later?

San

Hi San, yes indeed, they are excellent pictures, well done Steve. I will get the Coley info on BCC now San, so do not worry about it, best wishes from linell.

Thankyou Linell, I was going to do it but, a problem arose with a certain member who disputed the winner of the quiz and I had to put him in his place

<LOL> Does his name contain three letters with the middle one being an 'O' by any chance?

I couldn't possibly say Linell.........

San, this is all on BCC now, just adding some more connections to it. linell.

Cheers Linnell

Ok I have been ill and I take my eye off the ball and find some of my ancestors linked to others that I haven't any idea of.
1891 Census
Richard Coley
Sarah Coley
and 9 children
Richard Coley aka Smith -Coley, Smith, Coley - Smith Illigit son of William Smith and Mary Coley. Mary Coley bap 24/12/1837 at St Johns Halesowen, buried 18/12/1837. Richard Smith bap 17/5/1838 of William and Mary Smith. William gave him his name but when Richard married he called himself Coley and his father William Coley - he married Sarah Crumpton, 17/9/1854 at St Thomas Dudley. He died as Richard Coley - Smith but at different censuses his name kept changing. I have all the relevent censuses and photocopies of parish records. As yet I haven't had time to put all this on BCC

Hope you are better now DB

This family of yours I think are living near this lot on connections in 1891 here...
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... onnections

So this thread looks as though it is completed ...DB start a new thread if you want to run with any of those you mention.
And when you get the time add it to BCC

So unless otherwise advised this topic will be moved to archived section within 24 hrs
