I am searching for my Great Grandmother. Frances/ Fanny Edwards born in Wednesbury 1857-59, I think it was Kings Hill. Her father was Edward Edwards, she married Joseph Pointon/Poynton in1880. I have tried General reg.Office they have checked from1857 to 1859, B.M.W. Family Search, nothing registered. I so much would like to find who her Mother was.
If anyone can help i would be very greatfull.
THANK YOU

I could find the marriage of Joseph & Fanny on the FreeBMD website freebmd.rootsweb.com/
in Qtr Sep 1880 at Cannock.
Interestingly Edward Pointon also got married in the same Quarter and location - was he a relative or even a double wedding?
I was unable to find a suitable birth for Frances but there was a Fanny in 1855 in West Bromwich - perhaps that is the one?

jebrec,
If you read my article on Bullock you would see that Jane Edwards was my grandmother 3great grandmother. Her father was Edward Edwards and he was born in Wales. Her mother was Elizabeth Roomes. She married my 3 great grandfather in 1837. Jane was born in 1818 and Edward Edwards was born about 1806. Jane did have at least one brother named Henry Edward Edwards.
There is a little more that I know if this is your family.

Regards, Ezziej
