Hi Tippin,
I have been looking into the Kings Norton workhouse due to ancestor's connections and I have discovered that in 1912 Kings Norton was amalgamated with the Birmingham Poor Law Union & in 1922 the former Kings Norton Workhouse became Selly Oak Hospital.

I would also appreciate a Baptism for a Dennis J Adams born 16/6/1921 ( birth at 2 Raddlebarn Road ) Thats if he was Baptised at all. !! please if its possible and not too much for you Treefan. Thank you. Edited; This question we would all like an answer to was also at one time being discussed on another well known site,and still came back with the same answers we have on here. here is another Quote from there. Quote;No 2 is a house,its on the corner of Raddlebarn &Willow Rd, part of the Bournville Village Trust Area.its still there as I past it the other day,the workhouse was across the road,now Selly Oak Hospital.End of Quote.( Dated 19/8/2008 ) Sophiedog
Hi there,
I have finally managed to get to the library to do some more research & I tried to find the baptism entry for Dennis J Adams for you. I searched through the baptism book for St Mary's church but sadly couldn't find an entry for his baptism
Sorry.
Best Wishes,
Treefan.

Hi Andy,
It was my pleasure. I had hoped that the baptisms would be on film so that I could get a photocopy of the entry for you but instead I had to look through the old parish register book and I'm afraid that I didn't have my camera with me. Now that you know the details though, perhaps you could send off for a copy from the library.
With best wishes,
Jan.

Hi Jan,
I now have the reference, which is just what I wanted.
I will have to get in touch with the library for a copy.
Also important for this topic - any one who has a birth certificate with the address 2, Raddle Barn Road, Circa 1910, now know that the child is likely to have been baptised at St Mary's Church.
Thanks again,
Andy

The main names that I am researching into at the moment are Cadman,(originating from Bulkington, Warwickshire), Smedley, (Leicestershire and Derbyshire), Paynes (Leicestershire, Yorkshire and Derbyshire) and Udall - you will also find several other names on my web page. I look forward to E-Mails from anyone who would like to share or talk about our family history.

Your comment about the baptisms taking place at St Mary's church is indeed correct -- there were many baptisms all done at the same time all being born at the Union infirmary.

Hi Treefan,My father was born there in 1921 so I am guessing you looked for that year and not 1910 for my father.Thanks for trying for me .

Hi,
Just to confirm that I did indeed look for the year 1921, sorry that I had no success.
