I often help people here will photos of cemeteries and I am now trying to trace my Great Nad and Grandad how lived at 93 Icknield Square, ladywood, Birmingham the date I think is 1911 onwards my Great Nan was called Louise Worrall and i think that she would be a home maker and pasted away in the September 1970-71 at the ages of between 6 -72. My Great Grandad was Frank Worrall who we think was a salesman and he passed away in the mid 40s they had 3 children.
Hilda Worrall(my Nan aged 99)
Frank Worrall died at the age of 90 about 5 or 6 years ago
Bow Worrall very little is known about him but we think he had a wife called Ivy
Any help would be appreciated. sorry about the poor spelling I am slightly dyslexic.
Thank You

Hi mark
Do you have any more information about where Frank senior, Louisa, Frank & Bow died or where any of the family were born?
Also do you know Louisa's surname before she married or roughly when or where she and Frank married?
Where did you get this address from - 93 Icknield Square, ladywood, Birmingham
We would love to help, but even small snippets of information might make it easier :)

Thank You this is what I have gathered so far.
My Nan i.e. Mrs Hilda Smith (Nee Worrall) lived on the same road as her Mom at 75 Inckeld Square and my nan remembers what her moms door number was and it was 93
There is a rumour that My Nan, my Great Uncle Frank and Great Uncle Bow all had different fathers.
Louise worrall was either laid to rest or cremeted at lodge Hill Cemertry in Birmingham but I am waiting confirmation of this.
Frank senior died early 40s my mom was born in 1946 and she is not sure if she remembers him or not.
Frank Junior died in clacton on sea about 6 or 7 years ago

Hi mark
I've sent you a private message (as it is about a living person)
I found these death registrations
Louisa Worrall 1971 Q3 Birmingham Volume 9c Page 230 - born 10 Aug 1888
Frank Worrall 1948 Q4 Birmingham Vol 9c Page 259 - Age at death 69, so born about 1879
also a birth registration
Frank Worrall 1879 Q4 Birmingham Volume 6d Page 22
There is no way for me to know if this is 'your' Frank, but I also found the following census references (in Birmingham)
1881 - RG11/2972/42/32
1891 - RG12/2373/70/30
1901 - RG13/2834/131/4
If you need the details from these just give me a shout :)

Thank you,
I had a a go at doing it myself I can see it being very addictive!! Any way I also found the Louisa taylor but then I also when i checked for my Nans wedding in 1931 I found out that her maiden name was Ward so checked this out and yes there is a marrage of a Frank Worrell to a louisa Ward in 1925 even though my nan was born in 1911!!! (can only happern in my family).
Hope that makes sense newbie to this
