Thanks annettej.

The family weren't there in 1911 so that narrows it. Perhaps later electoral rolls would help.

Just noted that Mary died in 1918 so maybe the house was disposed of then.

[annettej]

I think after the war and the will was registered etc. the son purchased property in Aston as I have 2 addresses later on one at Duchess Road and nearby. But trying to find the family on the census has not been an easy task.  Not very good on War records and the newspapers do not mention much about his brother when he died.

I think this may be the family

It is worth considering these but the children don’t quite match the number you said.

[annettej]

Thank you, strange as I have viewed these before but was not sure they were a match.

[heywood]

Nor am I but the two you have named have the same birthdates.

[annettej]

Well will keep working at it thank you for your help

[heywood]

Did John Joseph marry?

[annettej]

Not been able to find marriage for him. But he is listed on the electoral roll in the 1930,s with a Christina/Chrissie,
