Hi List I am a new subscriber to this list researching my Mother's family. I am trying to find information on her grandfather's connection to West Bromwich Albion. Before my Mother passed away two years ago she told me he was on the board of WBA. I have nothing to substantiate this only that I know he was a "manufacturers clerk" at Salter's Springs from around 1870 to 1901 according to census and certificate information. I know his son also named Thomas Smith was a manufacturers clerk at Salter's in 1901. I have read a little about the connection of Salter's Springs to WBA so think there may be a connection to my gt gt grandfather. Can anyone point me in the right direction to find any information on the history of the people who started or were involved in the football club at this time. Thank you Wendy Partridge Tamworth, Staffs.
