| Hi guys thank you for your hard work, it may have been easy for you, but, for me it would have been hard :). Sorry I didn't post a reply sooner it was just that I needed to speak to a relative before posting and now I have I just want to thank all of you who helped My cousin had said Joseph had been married to an Elizabeth but then another relative was so adamant that that was not right and that he had been married to a Mary!!!!,so I decided to try searching for myself but I drew not quiet a brick wall but half a brick wall. Today I went down to Worcester to speak with my rel face to face, she just laughed and said "I'm telling you now it was Mary" and she went on to say "don't know were Elizabeth's come from but it was definitely Mary and she went on to give me details of where Joseph,Mary and their "brood" lived which coincided with what was found here This lady whilst elderly has all her marbles and now with your help I now know Mary's surname and the date of her marriage to Joseph I've traveled along way from Stoke-on-Trent to Worcester and back to get the confirmation that it was Mary and you lovely people have given her a surname, thank you so much. | ||||

| Thank to all the helpers I have now traced the family back a further two generations. They discovered that a change in spelling was the reason for my lack of progress. It seems that the railways have played a major role in the family with my father, great Grandfather 7 great great Grandfather all being railway workers | ||||

| I would like to thank Dee,Flick,Batmans daughter for all your reply's as the info on Selinda,Mary Anglina, and Elizabeth Mc Grath-- LeHuray's all tie in with my family and to find that my great grandmother Elizabeth Ohelena or Helena McGrath was married to a Broadbridge before William LeHuray no wonder l could not find William,John Charlotte, Thomas as Lehuray's as they were Broadbridge's and Elizabeth had the 8.9.1863 down as her marriage date to william but it was the date to William Broadbridge no wonder we all get confused sorting all this out once again thank you all Eileen | ||||
