That could very well be it, there are other events at St Mary before it appears they moved to Cradley for the Iron Works. Trying to find when those opened up to confirm the move reason.

going to move this to brickwalls.

david let me know if you want your username added to Bcc on Wm Coley b 1806

also where did that bapt for Wm and sibs come from which church?

its the England, Select Births and Christenings, 1538-1975, non-denominational.
RG4/3113

That's all the info I have on it for now.

Christenings were done at Bond Street Baptist,Birmingham.

and feel free to add it to Bcc. Thanks for the lookup on the church location.

I'm pretty sure I'm not going to ever get deeper than this for the William Coley's in the family with out being local and having some real luck with paper records.

added in your name to william coley

Is this still a Brickwall, or have you solved it?

Unless otherwise advised this will be moved to the Brickwalls Archived section
