Title: Celia phillips
Post by: teddygreen1 on Tuesday 17 July 18 19:11 BST (UK)
Hi I'm wondering if you could help us.
My nan Celia grace was born in 1895 to a Sarah and Albert Phillips . They lived in allcock street in birmingham in 1901 . On December the 15th Celia found her mom in the courtyard having passed away and because Albert was in the Boer war we presumed that Sarah sister Jane looked after Celia and her brother Albert. In 1911 they are on a census in Belmont passage with Jane listed as alberts wife along with the children and John phillips who was Jane and alberts son
.we went to the library today to see if Celia went to allcock school   which she did but it says that her previous school was kings Norton pershore road. She was enrolled in 1907. Because of the 100 year rule we could not actually look at it ourselves because it is a year by year book .
The library of Birmingham does not have records of king Norton school . Could this school be under another region and if so where could I go to see  register

Kings Norton was in Worcestershire, and not in Warwickshire or Birmingham ;D

So, you'll need to visit Worcestershire Archives at:
The Hive,
Sawmill Walk,
The Butts,
Worcester.
