You may already be aware of this site, but the Wolverhampton Archives site has a number of parish and cemetery records for the Wolverhampton area (including Willenhall):

Walsall local history centre might be a good place to start, they hold copies of the local parish registers, including Willenhall. As you live in Telford, and the centre is open on Saturdays, you might possibly be able to carry out your own research.

You could try FreeREG http://freereg.rootsweb.com/cgi/Search.pl they have quite a few records for Walsall/Willehall

I've looked in staffordshire monumental inscriptions and don't see any of the willenhall ones it covers wood street cem and willenhall st giles. The other's i can't find anything on the inscriptions for those in queen st walsall oe st matthews however there are quite a few Mills ones in queen st cem and there is one for a stanton and there is another stanton in st matthews. I bought some cd's from bmsgh. In regards to your stanton's where were they living as there are different pockets of them icluding great wyrley and cheslyn hay.

Hi
Just noticed you are researching a George Washbrook. Could you give me some more details of dates or names and I'll check what I've got and we may be able to exchange?
Thanks
