Title: Watkins in Aston (Frain connection)
Post by: Nurmal on Monday 09 August 10 10:10 BST (UK)

I am looking for information on Watkins family from Aston around 1910/20 onwards.  Charles Watkins married Winifred Frain in Dec 1910.
They had 3 children.  John C (b Dec 1911), Alice M (b Sept 1913) and Arthur W (b Dec 1915).
If this is the correct family they were living at 55, Jardine Road, Aston around 1915/16 and Winifred (Winnie) was from County Mayo my grandfathers sister.

Normal, there’s a Winifred Frain somewhere in my tree. I’m not sure of the link, but I think she was a cousin of my grandfather, or the daughter of one of his namesakes.

Do you have any more Frain information to share?

I’ll hope to.

Thanks. Stay safe!

From the 1911 census it is clear that Charles had been married before there are 3 children on the census age 12 - 21, Charles Frederick with them on the electoral roll was 17 in 1911.
