Birmingham: Richard BIRCH, born 24/01/1846
« on: Thursday 30 March 17 14:25 BST (UK) »
Hello,

Richard BIRCH was born St. Martin, Birmingham, 24/01/1846, the son of Richard BIRCH and his wife Sarah (nee COX)......the parents are correct in that on leaving prison after 3 years on 16/07/1863 he stated he was returning to his mother's address, 111 Hill Street, Birmingham.The address is confirmed by the 1861 Census: RG9/2150/63, p.29.

Sadly, I can find no further references to Richard BIRCH after 1863 and wonder if anyone can help??

For the moment,

BAC3

Hi,

GRO records Richard's birth as Richard Benjamin Birch
q1 1846, Birmingham
Vol 16 296
MMN - Cox

The middle name can sometimes be of help  :)

He was baptised as Benjamin Richard.
