Edwards family

[KLS]

I am looking for information on the Edwards family of Birmingham who are related to the Showell family who are well known in the city for being brewers.

Hi and welcome to Rootschat do you have first names and dates for these people also the area they were living in ..The more information you give will help find the families assuming we are not looking for living people ...So just be careful with names of people that are still living

Hi Rosie
I am looking for information about James and Rosina Edwards in the late 1800's,early 1900's.  Rosina's maiden name was Showell.  I know James was born in London and moved to Birmingham.  His father was Samuel but I don't know his mother's name.
Kind regards
Katrina

Hi Rosie
Many thanks, that is their marriage.  The brewers are further back on the Showell side.  Its the Edwards family I am having difficulty going further back with.........
