Summerhill, Tipton

[Treefan]

 
I have obtained a birth certificate of an ancestor which shows that she was born in 1854 in Tipton, the place named is Summerhill, Tipton.
Can anyone tell me exactly where in Tipton Summerhill was please?

Thank you,
Treefan.

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I did try to Google it but only found businesses & a school with the name Summerhill included and I wasn't sure about what I had found as the area seemed vast, even going into Wolverhampton.
I'll try again,

Thank you.
Treefan.

Hi Treefan,

I used to cycle through the Summerhill area on my way to work 45 years ago !!  its vastly different now of course.

 Summerhill Tipton is a roughly rectangular area bounded on all sides by Salter Road, Upper Church Lane, Locarno Road and Central Avenue.    If you go into Google Maps search either of the above mentioned roads in the Satellite tab. Don't forget to add Tipton to your search.


Which families are your reasearching in that area ?    Mine are    -    Davies(Davis)/ Short/ Stanford/ Langford/ Jay(Say)/ and Constable.

Best of luck

Hi Nina,
Many thanks for your reply, it's most appreciated.
The family that I am currently researching are the Dallow family. They were all based in and around Lower Mitton, Worcestershire but I believe that John & Mary Dallow lived in Summerhill, Tipton for a few years between the 1851 & 1861 census's where John worked as a forgeman.

Once again, many thanks,
Treefan.
