Gunsmith - a dangerous profession - could John have died and Maria remarried?

Thanks for clarifying that Jimmy, so ok it was Windmill End. I have the 1841 Disc for Rowley Regis, I just searched all the original images for Annie's Faulkners in Slack Hillock/Waterfall Lane and Gorsty Hill, plenty of Weston's, Willetts, Tibbetts and Westwood's but no Faulkner's. Will have a look at Windmill End later Annie. Linell.

Hi Annie, the boarders for Dudley and Rowley Regis must be the most difficult to comprehend in the UK, always search under both Worcs and Staffs to be on the safe side. I found this family in 1841, Darby Hand, near Windmill End:-
GREENFIELD, Jos M 60 1781 Worcestershire
GREENFIELD, Elizabeth F 60 1781 Worcestershire
GREENFIELD, Jos M 30 1811 Worcestershire
FORKNER, Nancy F 31 1810 Worcestershire Widow
FORKNER, Wm M 4 1837 Worcestershire
FORKNER, Eliza F 1 1840 Worcestershire
Will keep looking from Linell.
