This chap ..... Joseph Job WITTON on BCC here

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ton-Family

I believe he married Ellen Martha JENNINGS in 1922 West Bromwich... she is on BCC here

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ngs-Family

I think this is Ellen's family in 1901
27 Vernon St, West Brom
James MALLIN(67) wid..gen. lab.brickyrd b. Bromley, Staffs,
daughter Gertrude JENNINGS (33) b. Bromley,
son-in-law Isaac JENNINGS(34) journeyman baker(?) b. Acocks Grn,
grand children..George H JENNINGS(10),
Ellen M JENNINGS(9) both born Yardley,
Dora JENNINGS(5)
& Ada JENNINGS(2mths) both born W. Brom

I think that Joseph Job & Ellen WITTON had a daughter Eugenie born 1925 West Brom

Name: Eugenie Witton
Mother's Maiden Surname: Jennings
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1925
Registration district: West Bromwich
Inferred County: Staffordshire
Volume Number: 6b
Page Number: 1391 (click to see others on page)

and I think Eugenie went on to marry Reginald EDWARDS in 1943
It looks as though they had at least 3 children

I haven't been able to find 1911 census fro Joseph Job or Ellen M JENNINGS

Any use to anyone?

There is a "tree" on ancestry that has this family but has no father or mothers name added for Ellen.
I dont think you can do anything without the marriage cert to confirm and its not showing on the westmid site. It would have to be ordered.

I agree how do we know Ellen on our site is an Ellen Martha
