How did you checkprisoners in WG i would love to know.  No next of kin on death cert.  Would a visit to Bham archives help also there was a inquest at the time of death.

A quick "google" showed many Bannisters detained in WG during the late 1800's.
Have you got the death cert ? Any interesting info on there ?

A possible inquest document - fascinating ! This gets better and better. These often mention a family member or reference to abode etc.  (Just "Alveley" spelt badly would be a blessing ! )

Had a quick look at Birmingham city archives website and we might be in luck -

"Inquest files are arranged chronologically so you will need to know the date of the inquest. This is given on the death certificate "

So a trip to brum would certainly help !

Dear Scrivens and related folk,

I am looking for Mary Scriven (1723 Much Marcle), m Richard Whittaker (1721). She was, I believe, daughter of George Scriven. Does anyone have such a scriven on their records?
Thanks so much,
Al

Not in my Alveley line, I'm afraid.....sorry, I haven't come across them in my research either.

Good luck.
