Introduction
Hi my name is Hilary, I'm just starting out looking at my fathers side of the family - Darby. I think my Grandad was born in the 1890's, his name was Elijah he got married to Hannah and they lived in Darby End, Netherton, they had 7 children, 4 boys and 3 girls. They moved to New Village, Dudley Wood, when my dad was a boy. I know very little about my grandad and his family so am looking forward to this journey of discovery.
