Staffordshire Gazetteer
« on: Wednesday 24 February 10 16:06 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for my Joseph Richardson who was a tailor in Uttoxeter from 1851
onwards. Does anyone know where I can view Gazeteer's for Staffordshire where
I don't have to pay to view?
On census material he was a tailor in Balance Street Uttoxeter.
Thankyou
Alyson
