I'm hoping to go into town on Wednesday (30th).
If well enough I will check out the library, as it is close to where I'm going.

I wanted to check if my great-grand mother made a will, having just recently found her date and place of death, so it won't be a wasted journey.

Hi Tess,

Thanks for the good wishes.

No problem if it's closed. I'll just have a mega strop, on the steps, in front of everyone. It will be totally embarrassing. And I'll be able to blame that Jan for deciding that a Wednesday would be okay :-D

Hi Jan. Waving at you.

You are sure it's open on Wednesday. Aren't you? :-P

So long as I find a bit of info, I'll be happy. So many of hubby's lot and my lot were all around the area of Aston and the times I see Aston Juxta or St. P & St.P makes me think that all these people must have known each other - at least by sight. :-D

Jill, have you chaecked which days the Library is open now.

Birming Central Library will be moving soon. The top floors are only open on a few days a week. Pretty sure that they are closed Monday and Tuesday, and I believe at least one more day. (Can't remember which)

Hope that you find the info you are looking for.

Cyrus Percy Wortley
England, Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
christening: 23 Feb 1880 Birmingham,? Warwick,? England

I'm meeting up with Zena and Jan in Birmingham next week for a session at the Birmingham Central Library. Much of what I am looking for took place at Aston Juxta aka St.Peter & St. Paul, Aston.

It's a long gap from that marriage till that birth in 1918, I would hazard that they were out of the country, there is a C Wortley travelling to Aus in 1907 but no wife with him so that doesn't help much.
