West Bromwich - Wright and Wood
« on: Sunday 02 January 05 10:04 GMT (UK) »
I'd be very grateful if someone could look up the following on the 1861 census:
William Wright shoemaker, living at 89 Newhall Street West Bromwich in 1851, and particularly his daughter Matilda Wright b. 1845; Matilda married William Wood in 1864 in W. Brom.

Also William Wood himself b. 1832/3 Alveley Shropshire shoemaker, his first wife (name unknown) and any children, living in either West Bromwich or Oldbury in 1861. In 1851 William Wood had been living with his sister Elizabeth b. about 1817 Alveley Shropshire and her husband William Lawley shoemaker b. abt. 1815 Wolverley Worcs at 39 New Street, Oldbury, Worcs.

Many thanks! Dennis.
