Gallant, William Withers, b1832
« on: Saturday 26 September 20 12:34 BST (UK) »
Checking for some missing bits.
I have his birth, 30/5/1832; his baptism 29/6/1832;
and death at Solihull 04/1908; Probate 17/6/1908.
I have 1841 Census at Melbourne Pl. Age 9
No 2851, 1861, 1871 Censuses. Can you supply, Please?

Could be him 1881 as a Lodger, age 49
1891 with his mother at an indecipherable road in Yardley, age 59.
No, 1901 Census

Not convinced he married in 1888 to Mary Ann, but could be persuaded.

With thanks
David

Have you perhaps made a rather crucial typo with this person's name ?
