Hi,

I have just found out that my GGGGrandparents were both inmates and died here in 1908. I have their burial entries  from St Giles Parish Church Willenhall and have asked at Wolverhampton Archives about searching for the admission workhouse records to be told that they do not know where they are, and they think that they have been destroyed! Does anyone have any info/ ideas where I could find out more? I have them living at home in Willenhall in the 1901
census.

Also on the church burial entries, below their names (and many others) Church st. is wrtten in brackets does anyone know what this refers to? Archives staff could not help!

Holy Trinity church is in Church Street, Heath Town, Wolverhampton so maybe the burial entries also include that church
