Dorrell Family (Stourbridge)
« on: Tuesday 27 May 08 21:33 BST (UK) »

Hi, new to all this, so bear with me! Smiley

Trying to find information on a Henry Dorrell, born abt Jun Qtr 1852 in Stourbridge.

Unable to find a partner, but they had a son, James Dorrell, born abt Dec Qtr 1868 in Cleobury Mortimer (Shropshire), and died on 18 Oct 1943 in Birmingham. James was married to Sarah Ann Higginson (1879 - 1955 Birmingham)

I was hoping someone could help me find a wife for him, and any other details!!

Thank you!

Do you think this could be your family in 1861.

Head of the household is a Thomas Phillips and is wife Julia and living with them is a Dorral family but no husband at home

Hi again

When you say " They had a son" do you mean Henry and his wife/partner?

Do you have a birth cert for James ?..it should say who his parents were.

If not what is your source for James being "Their" child.

Do you know when James and Sarah married ?

Every bit of info helps...sometimes

 Jane,

I would guess that this is the marriage ref for James and wife:

Dorrell James
Higginson Annie

Aston 6d 594
Mar 1902

..though as you can see it is for an  Annie not Sarah Ann that Dazzy mentions.........

Sisterjane - thank you SO much for the info!!  Grin Smiley

It is correct, because my Wife remebers her father telling her about a great grandmother being part of a mining family in that area, and she worked down there herself! Many many thanks!!!  Smiley

Gives me more of the family to open up and work on - not that i need much encouragement! Working on 6 different families at the mo. Palmer, Field, McCalpin, Bluck, Condren & Wright, all from the B'ham/Warks areas.  Smiley

James was the son of Henry; James married SARAH ann Higginson 25 Jan 1902 at B'ham Registry Office, and are both interred (with their son James Henry) at Brandwood Cemetery.

Hi Kaz, Sarah WAS known as 'Annie' all her life. She obviously didn't like her given name! We have Clara & Kate (only one Clara), and there is a brother, James Henry (as mentioned above), and another sister, Zipporah Agnes.

Again, thank you ladies!!!  Smiley
