Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 28 Send Message	I am trying to find my g/g/grandad Edward Hill born about 1827 in Stourbridge/Dudley He married Sarah Sidaway (she had been married before so was Taylor when they married) They lived in Bedminster from about 1858 when my grandmother was born. They had four children that I know of - Hannah Priscilla ,Julia, Mary Alice and Edward. ~Anyone recognise anything please. Such a common name I have hit a brick wall with it. Margaret
