Holly has a Mary Attwood born 1848 Quarry Bank daughter of Thomas Attwood & Elizabeth Mansell
Possibly same person ?

Hi all, back from my holls, yes Mumbles that could be Mary Attwood 1847/8 who Marries John Weston, she is on the 1851 Census and 1861 Sheffield Street Quarry Bank. Thanks for the Marriage Look Up FS. Best Wishes from Linell.

Just realised that Mary's sister Sarah Ann Attwood born abt.1843 Marries Thomas Grove born Halesowen 1841 (could be Cradley Halesowen) 23.10.1859 Cradley. Thomas must be related to the Marriage Witness? Best Wishes Linell.

Hi Linell,
I think there is sufficient evidence to make connection especially ref. Witnesses at marriage and neighbours on Census ?
