One of my Great Great Grandfathers was born Tallow 1831 He was in London with his Daughter Hannah and Son in Law Daniel Tagney in 1881.He must have moved to Cork as Hannah was married there His name was Denis Callaghan

Thanks EMGEE,The Home Wreath can be read on Google Books.Harriet became a Nun along with her sister Sarah,they ran Female Penitentiaries.After 23 years Harriet wrote a book (I have a copy) called 23 years in a house of mercy.She carried on as Lady Superior in Stone Datford where she died in 1892.I found the grave of both sisters in St Marys Church STONE Dartford.I am trying to track down any photographs of this family.Francis Nokes Sr died in 1873 and seems to have been important enough to have been included in Lawleys History of Wolverhampton.

Dudley Whitchurch,Have you come across any Nokes family in Bilston?  My great great Grandfather was a printer in Church St till his death 1873 That was Francis Nokes,He had a son also called Francis Nokes  Postmaster of Bilston in Church St.

2 Daughters  Harriett Nokes B 1830  Sarah about 1837  They became Anglican Nuns and ran Female Penitentiaries in Kent.I do have lots of other info if you would like to share.

At the moment I am trying to find out if Francis Sr left a will.Also as the started up a newspaper called Bilston Herald whether they were important enough to have left any photographs.ß
