Hi Chris Welcome to the forum
I think you know about the Black Country Connections tree
but if not if you click on my website logo it will tell you all about our little project
quite a few of us are involved in this.
If you have ancestors from the BC area we have a dedicated Black Country Genealogy section too!
Just scroll down the main board and do post something in there you wish any help on.
For any other areas there is the General Discussion area

My Garratts hailed from Burton Dassett (Samuel Garrot b 1758), then to Barby (William b 1794 in Burton Dassett, in Barby early 1800's) and then West Bromwich (George (b 1830 in Barby and in West Bromwich by 1861's). I couldn't see any of them on your site. My HOMER's are were from Rowley Regis - the earliest so far being Edward (b 1815).
