Thread: Baptism records for Erdington, Warwickshire.

The Ward family of Erdington

Thomas Ward married to Mary Dewell in 1878 in the Aston parish of Birmingham. They were both born in Erdington & continued to live there following their marriage.The 1911 census entry for Thomas & Mary Ward show that they had a total of 10 children born to them but by 1911 only three of them were still living.The known children are :-William James Ward born in late 1879, ErdingtonHarry Ward born 1882/1883, ErdingtonEdwin Ward born 1885, ErdingtonAlice Mary Ward born 188, ErdingtonIf anyone has access to the baptism records for Erdington I would be very grateful please for information re. the children of Thomas & Mary Ward.Each of the census entries between 1881 to 1911 all show Thomas Ward to have been born in 1850 & his wife Mary Ward (nee Dewell) is always shown as being born in 1854 ~ if possible I would also like to learn the details of the baptism for Thomas Ward in order to discover who his parents were & determine whether he had any siblings too.Due to long term ill health I am unable to visit the Birmingham Central Library at the moment in order to check up on these details for myself so any help on this matter would be most appreciated.

Thank you.
