I'm looking for any information on Rachel Manger(born c1870 daughter of David Manger b.1838) - the basic family tree I have shows she married an Enoch Whitehouse but none of the Enoch Whitehouses listed on the Black country Connections seem to make sense. I understand they had 8 children - one Edie married a Ron Homer but I can't find him on the connections pages. Another daughter Mabel married a Reg Moore and I'm not sure whether any of the Reginald Moores listed are connected and another daughter, Francis married a Horace Hale who I can't find and likewise their daughter Greta married a Percy Dolphin who again isn't listed.

I would be surprised if any of the above missing connections are far from the Birmingham/Black country area as I'm sure some of them visited my grandparents from there.

Could do with that marriage above but have connected up here - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... ver=346998

Edie married a Ron Homer

Perhaps his name was Arthur Ronald Homer?

Mabel married a Reg Moore

Do you have the marr cert for the above?

Could it be Laura MABEL? and is his middle name REG?
