Brewood   Staffs     1837 - 1877 Reg Dist Penkridge
Brewood   Staffs     1877 - 1974 Reg Dist Cannock

Note - it has been transcribed as "Brewford" on the '51 Census that I subscribe to

Hello,

Just a bit of information as it might put light on the various spellings for Brewood - it is pronounced Brood (rhyming with food).
