COMPLETED............Edge Green Lawley Connection?

Post by nelly »

Not sure about this one.

I think Thomas Edge married Sarah Green at St Lukes Cradley Heath in 1908, Ref No 20/4/495

This Sarah Green -

I haven't looked it up yet, so it could be wrong.
A quick google search shows there was a Thomas Edge killed in 1914 in WWI (South Staffs 2nd Battalion 1914 born 1887).
Could this be him? I don't know, does anyone else?

What I do know is Sarah Edge (nee Green) remarried and became the 2nd wife of Donald William Lawley.
