A Black Country
Boy in New Zealand.
I am researching in the Midlands area in
Staffs, Worcs and a main branch of the HALL family in Warwickshire.
In particular:
- HARTWELL...This name
appears almost entirely in Warwickshire villages from Stockingford
and Arley and down as far as Stratford on Avon. I have a spread
sheet with some 412 Hartwell members dating back to 1600. This info
was taken from the IGI listings at the LDS Family history centre. I
have also researched much of the Census for these areas. My data is
far from complete but if anyone is involved with Hartwell links I
would be pleased to hear from you.
- HALL...Married
Hartwells' from Stockingford. The main links I have reached are
based in Smethwick, Kings Norton, Harbourne, Norton Lindsay. Such
names as JOHN HENRY HALL, THOMAS WILLIAM HALL, WILLIAM HALL.
William married MARY ANN BUSBY in Norton Lindsey he died in 1860. I
don't know where he was born.
- GUY.... Christian
name JABEZ who married ANN MARIA CROOKS Jabez was born in Little
Brickhill, Buckinghamshire.. They had a daughter SARAH ANN GUY born
1871 in SMETHWICK.
- EDGE... jJOSEPH HINGLEY EDGE
arrived in New Zealand via Australia about 1908. He was born in
Haden Cross, Rowley Regis.
- FOXALL...EDGE....BARNSLEY...DAVIS...HOMER...Mostly
they were 'Gun barrel grinders/makers, Chain makers etc.
