POOLE FAMILY OF UPTON MAGNA
« on: Friday 19 August 05 12:13 BST (UK) »

One of my ancestors was a JOSEPH POOLE born in UPTON MAGNA.  He married MARTHA [surname indecipherable from NATHANIEL POOLE's birth certificate whose mother she was].

If there is anyone with information about my family I would like to know details as both Joseph and Martha were apparently born before 1837.

Joseph and Martha Poole can be found in Brownhills in the census but shown as having originated from SHROPSHIRE.

One of the census records says UPTON MAGNA.

WHERE IS UPTON MAGNA PLEASE?

Thank you very much for your help

Hi imison

Upton Magna is about 5 miles east of Shrewsbury.  It's a pretty place, very rural, despite being so close to Shrewsbury.

Hello again

I've been looking for a marriage reference but haven't found one - searched in Shropshire and Staffordshire.

I have found some of the children, taking names from the 1861.  Maybe one of their birth certificates would have Martha's name more clearly.

Catherine Poole, birth: Sep 1858 Walsall, 6b - 507.
Elias Albert Poole, birth: June 1859 Walsall, 6b - 571.
