George Griffin Born 1872 Astwood Bank. In 1901 he married Ada Fanny Parsons. In 1911 they were living at Sapcote,leicestershire. Had 2 sons Edward Herbert Reginald (my Grandad),Hubert Bernard Stephen ( who I was never told about by my family!!!!).George and Ada then moved to Prince Albert Street Bordesley Green.The only info I was told by my parents was that my grandads parents came from lutterworth and that grandads father was a train driver. According to the 1911 Census. George Griffin was a stoke boiler at a stone quarry at sapcote.I have traced information about ada whose maiden name was `Parsons from the village of Shawell Leicestershire .Have found a sister& brother on the 1891 census. NOw trying to trace George Griffin Parents or any brothers or sisters.

SilverVixen on 2012-05-26 07:32:04In the 1891 UK census I have a George Griffin born Astwood Bank, Warwickshire in 1872. He was a Railway Porter and his brother? Thomas was a Carter at Railway Station. Thomas was born in 1867 at Sambourne, Warwickshire
Going by the information above in the 1881 UK census they are living with their mother Ellen, a Widow, born 1841, Bidford, Warwickshire. Thomas was a farm labourer, George was a scholar and they have 2 sisters, Emma 1874 a scholar and Mary Ann 1877 a scholar
Following Ellen to the 1871 Census she has a husband Thomas 1839 but he is a Carpenter, born 1839 in Worcestershire. In this census they have a 5 year old daughter Ellen born 1866 in Warwick
Thomas Griffin married Ellen Howell Alcester, Warwickshire, 1864, Q4 6D 875
Thomas Griffin died 1880 aged 41 at Alcester, Warwickshire, Q1 6D 414
