This is a spin off from the Griffiths thread
Joseph is the son of Thomas Harris and Susannah Baker1856
BAKER Susanna HARRIS Thomas Dudley, St Andrew Dudley Register Office 205/002/113
can we link this lot into any on Connections?
that name Baker and Susannah...
see it is here.....
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =326177666but accord to Nutsy this Susannah baker is b abt 1837 b'ham
but what a coincidence that a John Griffiths marries a Mary ann Baker and her sis is Susannah....
also that John Griffiths may be the father of our Edward....not too sure on that one though...as the Edward Griffiths on there ...see here..
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =351225177is born RR....and ours or rather Nutsys is born Shrops...suppose he could have been born shrops and bapt RR
I am checking the marriage for Edward Grifftihs and Eliz tromans to see his fathers name
but even if John need more checking...and will open a thread when I bring it back (info)
in the mean time can we sort out this Joseph Harris and father Thomas Harris and Susannah Baker....cos it is odd that Baker griffiths connec already on.....

I have info from Joseph and Ann Sophia to the present and all is correct.
We have Masseys, Davies, Hodgetts, Hingleys, Harris' who married Harris', Wortons, Trembaths, and more, but one you get to the mid 1880's they are in Australia.

Just to clear any confusion, it is Surfeit Hill and Lomey Town, on the boarder of Cradley and Cradley Heath. Linell.

Hi NL, think it is Joseph Harris and Mary Bennett, 28.10.1832 Halesowen. I did look it up a couple of weeks ago, think one of the witnesses was a Harris? Will have another look, best wishes Linell.
