1. Re: [B'ham] Cocoa / Chocolate Packer - SELLY OAK - Healey Road [1]
Hi all, I am a dozy old bat (50 this year & with a 4 year old it's no wonder I'm barking) Of course I'm sure you all realised I meant Bournville when I said Cadbury! Happy New Year & never give up!

2. [B'ham] Cocoa / Chocolate Packer - SELLY OAK - Healey Road [1]
Gerry Indeed there was the Main Plant of Cadbury's located near Selly Oak, in fact at Bournville, just down the road. Many of the residents of Selly Oak listed in 1901 Census worked for Cadbury's. a " Google" for Cadbury's , gives more detail about the operation and its History. http://www.cadbury.co.uk/EN/CTB2003/sitemap.htm NB: The Road in Selly Oak you give is actually HEELEY Road , my Great Grand Aunt was living in No 27 in 1901 !!!

Hope you have an easier task with your HARRIS family than I've been having with mine. I've got them mis-transcribed as HARRISS, HANISS, HARRES, and even HAMP (explain that one!). Unfortunately, none of mine are from Harborne. Good Hunting, Allan Halstead
5. Re: [B'ham] Birmingham St. Philip and St. Martin [1]
Thanks Peter, The IGI is certainly a most useful tool to guide one to where one should be looking for information, but it is not a complete record of every parish that it covers. It is the entries not shown on the IGI I now seek. Fifteen years of research have taught me to consult indexes done at a local level, if available, and the burial information lacking from the IGI is especially crucial to get the fuller picture.

6. Re: [B'ham] Reeves, St Saviours Church, Saltley, Aston. [1]
Dear All. Well it seems like I upset a few people so I am very sorry, I should have thought, I do understand that it of course takes time, I have been looking into my family history for some seven years, and I am a member of three family history societies,and I do know how long it takes to look at a roll of film, if no index has been made, so I will come to Birmingham and go into the local records office. Sorry got carried away, can't say any more Graeme Pauline Roberts

Hello again Gerry, The previously mentioned book contains a number of relevant pictures, mostly taken in the early part of the 20th century. Another photo depicts Small Heath and Sparkbrook railway station with a caption telling us "It was opened in 1863 by the Great Western Railway to serve the new BSA works and the growing population in both districts."

9. [B'ham] MacDonald [1]
Thank you all very much for your advice re Robert Macdonald born in Birmingham. After doing family history for over ten years now I have learned not to go wasting #7 of my valuable pension willy nilly, on various certificates, so I try and gain as much info as possible before splashing out. Thank you for your advice and concern Pauline, If you do manage to find a photo of St Judes church I would appriciate a copy very much (Was it RC or Cof E?) Thank you all again Peter
10. Re: [B'ham] macdonald [1]
presumably they married before 1837 in which case the marriage cert will show her address. Go to FreeBMD to see if it's listed or let me know if you have a date & I'll look it up.

12. [B'ham] HARRIS of Harborne 1800's [1]
I am researching a HARRIS family in Harborne, Birmingham. I would be delighted to know if anyone knows of any connections. Also, suggestions to obtaining the elusive marriage certificate from .circa 1875 Charles Harris b 1847 Harborne (believed married Mary Julia Pritchett b 1847 but despite extensive searches I have been unable find the marriage details). Three children Charles b 1875, Mary Eliz b 1879 and.......... Francis Henry Harris born 1876 Harborne married 1899 to Jane Maria Fisher.

14. [B'ham] Charles Edward and Elizabeth CALLAGHAN [1]
Death certificate for my ggm Elizabeth JENKINS WALTERS SIMMONDS gives her address as: 63 Milcote Road, Selly Oak. She died 28 Feb 1943. Electoral rolls for 1939/40 and 1945 list Charles Edward and Elizabeth CALLAGHAN at that address. Ggm Elizabeth had a daughter Elizabeth b. abt 1896 but I have not found a marriage to CALLAGHAN. Hope someone is researching the CALLAGHAN name. Best wishes to all for good luck in your research in 2007. Ggm Elizabeth was my brick wall for many years so don't give up! I f
