Good morning ..I am intregued by your request to seek details of Ann Harper from West Bromwich .
I too have discovered that my 4x Gt Grandmother was also called Ann Harper born West Bromwich around 1820 .. What I cannot find out is her DOB her parents and WHY she traveled to Shrewsbury and met my 4X Gt Grandfather Edward Harris . They were married in WEM Shropshire.
Then as the years past the Harris Son's  migrated from Shrewsbury toward Shropshire then into Wolverhampton, finally back to West Bromwich .
I can only summise that perhaps Ann was employed as a servant . But cannot find evidence.

Welcome to Rootschat, Looby lou Rushin - can you give us some dates of events, census you've found her on as I can't find this Ann Harris bc.1820 West Bromwich on census, nor can I find a marriage between an Ann Harper and an Edward Harris.
