Looking for info on William Shaw born c1815. Was alive in 1872 according to his son's marriage certificate. most likely area to find him would be Oldbury.
His son' Thomas was living in Tat Bank Road at the time of his marriage in 1872. Perhaps his father lived close by.
If anyone has any info or suggestions please contact me
Thankyou,
Lesley

Would that be Oldbury near Birmingham? I don't know UK locations so I'm guessing... in 1871 there's this family living on High Street in Harborne which is near Oldbury in Worcestershire:

Thomas Shaw 33 Birmingham, Warwickshire, England Son Boiler Maker Journeyman
Elizabeth Shaw 18 Smethwick, Staffordshire, England Daughter Pupil Teacher
Samuel Smith 28 Smethwick, Staffordshire, England Lodger Labourer at Glass Works

Hi Trish
You are a star! Thank you so much.
I am convinced that this is the correct family, the age of Thomas and his occupation match his marriage certificate.
I am so grateful to you.
Thanks again
