STOKES Family
« on: Saturday 30 December 06 02:10 GMT (UK) »
Hi:
New here, but am looking to find any information about the Stokes family. Father William John (1839-??) married Ann Lucas 1860 in Dudley. She died ?? 1880.
They had 6 children: Florence E (1860), Frederick W (1863), Mary/Margaret Ellen (1867), George H (1870),Walter Lucas (1872), and Albert E (1879).

William John Stokes listed as Master saddler from Dudley or Warwickshire.
My grandfather (Walter Lucas) and his sister Margaret (Mary) were sent to Canada with Dr. Middlemore's Home Children program.

Perhaps Frederick was sent to Australia.

I am looking for any information about them or anyone who might be related to them or know when they died and/or where they were buried.

Thanks
England: Saltley, West Bromwich, Dudley, Aston, Warwickshire,
Surname: Stokes
