Welcome to Rootschat - what exactly are you looking for? Do you want to trace them backwards, we can help you with this? Or are you looking for living family, in which case we will be unable to help apart from giving advice where to look as Rootschat doesn't allow the names of living people?

Here is Benjamin's baptism

Benjamin Edward Wilcox

Baptism date:   17 Nov 1885
Oldbury, Worcester, England
Father:   Benjamin. Wilcox
Mother:   Sarah Wilcox
