Hello Listers:-
The following two families in the 1881 census are ancestors of mine.
Elizabeth Hewitt was my great grandmother.
Does anyone have knowledge or reference to them? The lived in Selly Oak
Birmingham on a lane leading to the Bristol canal bank and I think they
worked the canals in the area.
