It appears that all my Shipley family are from West Bromwich, Staffordshire. I have been able to trace back to a John Shipley born May 5, 1829 in West Bromwich and later married Ellen Slater (born 1835, Tipton) in 1850. On all the census I have found John Shipley's family living in West Bromwich. Parents John & Sarah Shipley, children John, Mary, James, Joseph, Martha, Elizabeth, Thomas. From the census it appears that John Shipley senior was born in 1797. Can anyone look at the All Saints parish records and try to find a baptism for John Shipley or a marriage of John Shipley to Sarah ?.
