Thank you for the links for pictures of The Fighting Cocks / Garricks Head.
I was probably being simplistic assuming Charles Beynon linked to 3 addresses selling beer from 1901 to approx 1930's would be easy to gain more information on - looks like Wolverhampton boasted a huge number of drinking establishments!
Curious that 42 Church st (selling beer from 1904 directory) turned out to be a draper's rather than a pub?
Many thanks
AJ

Hi Sheila
Does your A to D index include marriages?
If so could you tell me names of witnesses at the marriage of Margaret Doyle and John O'Donnell Dec. Qtr 1855?
Thanks.

Sorry emgee,
only the baptisms were indexed, as far as I know.

Pubs in Wolverhampton / Beynon
I feel I'm closing in on the movements of Charles david Beynon and his wife Clara Lucy a little - but would love any information on the numerous drinking establishments they were connected with : (Willow has very kindly posted some replies to this)
1901 census: 160 Bilston St
1904 Kellys : 42 Church st, Bilston
1911 census : Charles and Clara were in 1911 going by their respective middle names (David and Lucy) for some reason, but it is definitely the same people. In 1911 they are listed as publicans at "The Peel Arms", Peel Street. ??
1921 Kelly directory at The Fighting Cocks (not there in 1932 so do not know what happened to them after 1921).

Hi Willow,
We had a great mini-meet on Wednesday. Morrison's cafe was a good venue, easy to find and quiet at that time of day.
Just myself, RoDe, Tony55 and ponjalow, made it but it was great to meet the people behind the pseudonyms (and a few relatives too). You would have loved it as we had a great discussion on the locations of pubs in Bilston as well as other topics. We were there about an hour but it flew by.
While on the subject, the topic for the Black Country Memories Club next meeting (in Bilston) on Wednesday the 22nd April is "Pubs and Clubs", so I hope to be back for that too.
Thanks to Tony for getting me the book that he told me about too. I have a question relating to the book. there is a picture in it of the old Holy Trinity School in the 1990s but a mention that it was already boarded up at the time of publication. Does it still exist? If not, does anyone know what happened to the named bricks? I must try to find a list of those whose contributions were honoured in this way asit looks like one in the picture was from my family.
Got to dash out now but back later.

Has anyone any info about the Barnett family - mainly from West Bromwich and Oldbury. Samuel Barnett had two bickyards in the late 19th century one called Rattle Chain and the other Stour Valley - both near the canal. He married Lavinia Hailey (spelling differs). They had seven children - most buried in the cemetery in Dudley.

Sorry dollface, only two BEDDOWs baptised at Holy Trinity and parents were John and Mary.
Hi Sheila
This may be a long shot but the above may just be my brickwall  Can you let me know what years the 2 Beddows baptisms are, please. My OH's mother was a Beddows, born Aston, Birmingham, her father was Arthur Beddows and his marriage certificate shows his father as John Beddows but so far I have been unable to locate any info about them and as you know the ancestors turn up in the most unexpected places.
Thanks
Crystal (with fingers crossed)

Hi Crystal,
sent by PM.
Sorry tompson, I didn't find any Barnetts in the Holy Trinity baptism register or is that not what you were asking?
Welcome to RootsChat.
If it's a more general question about Barnetts in Staffordshire you'd probably get more response if you started a new thread.

Thanks for the information Tony,
I'll have to find out if either the Archives or the parish priest has a list somwhere of all the names.
I was just thinking that, if they had the bricks, they could sell them off again for the school funds. Looks like that's another opportunity that may have been missed.
Sheila
