I'm looking for any information about my gggrandparents:

John Horton (b. 1839 Harborne, Staffs; d. 1911)
Maria Thompson (b. 1836 Birmingham, Warks; d. 1925)

their ancestors, siblings or descendants. Can anyone help, please?

I have discovered:

John's parents were William Horton (b c1809, Hipsley, Worcs) and Hannah (maiden name unknown) (b c1813, Harborne, Staffs - and some of his siblings William (b c1842), Thomas (b c 1847) and Lucy (b c1848), all born in Harborne, Staffs.

Maria's mother was Ann (maiden name unknown) (b c1805) who was a widow by 1851 - and some of her siblings Josiah (b c1831), Charlotte (b c1834), Thomas (b c1839), Ann (b c1843), John (b c1845) - all born in Birmingham - and Sophia Elizabeth (b c1848), born in Harborne, Staffs.

Any more information about these families would be appreciated.
