Hart family lookup request in Eldersfield?

[katy k]

Hi, I'm searching for information on my g grandfather William Hart who I think was born in 1856 or 1858 in a place called Eldersfield (is this near Malvern?)  I believe he was the son of Joseph Hart (born  either Eldersfield or Berrow around 1843) and possibly Mary....but I haven't yet been able to confirm that.
Any help greatfully appreciated.

Thank you. This is the right family as I recognise the girls names.

OK so he was baptised as William Charles Hart did he marry a Gertrude maiden name possibly Weaver?
If so when/where and what does the marriage certificate/record say
Was he also a Blacksmith.

Thanks again. I do know that william Charles Hart married Gertrude weaver,not sure when exactly but the eldest of their 8 surviving children was louisa born 1885.My gran was Edith,their 6th child. The older children(Louisa, thomas, william,florence Eva, Edith) were born in Twyning Glos,the younger ones (james, Edward) in Halesowen between 1885 and 1897.I havent heard of Westbury but family folklore did mention him being a blacksmith and having something to do with making the railings of Halesowen churchyard.what I didnt know until you kindly reffered me to the 1861 census was the name of his parents as i have only just begun looking at this side of the family. I have also heard Berrow mentioned but dont know the geography of that area.
