No - from 1894 -1974 Walsall was it's own Registration District.  Also - Walsall is Staffordshire and Birmingham is Warwickshire

Hi

I would check with Birmingham Registrars Office and see if they can give you an explanation, I think that he died in Walsall and because they were traveling people they may have registered it at there next stop?
