There's also one for Walsall but I thought the voice sounded more like Darlaston. Trouble is the folks who are doing the recording come from down south and wouldn't know the difference.

Although I have replied to these kind people off-list, just to re-iterate:- My line begins with my great-great grandmother Elizabeth STRINGER who was born in Rowley Regis in 1827, but christened in Cradley!! Her parents were Thomas STRINGER (christened in 1792 in Cradley) and Maria SIDAWAY. They were married in 1811 in Halesowen. Thomas's parents were Samuel STRINGER and Mary NOCK, who were married in 1790 in Rowley Regis. Maria SIDAWAY was christened in 1791 in Cradley. She was the daughter of Thomas SIDAWAY and Hannah DIMMOCK, who were married in 1790 in Rowley Regis. If anyone else connects with any of these families, would love to hear from you. Ta muchly. Wendy
