Because my chum went on a goose chase to Yorkshire when he needed to be at SHELFIELD which is a village just north east of Walsall. it was a mining area. There had been a poor transcription from other records.

First child born in 1868 in Sheffield. No trace of marriage found in Yorkshire so hoping that someone has details ofa marriage in Shropshire. -- Best wishes David Lumley
