Talk:Balsall Heath

message: I have been doing a bit of family history research for my uncle and was wondering if anyone could help?
I am trying to find living descendants of either Gertrude Johnston (aka Gibbins) or George Whitehouse who married on June 3rd 1939.  I know that they lived in the Birmingham area at the time.  Alternately I would be interested in hearing from living relatives of the Johnston family who lived at number 22 White Road, Sparkbrook definately between 1928-1946 and maybe longer.
please email pete[at]stuckindoors[dot]com
Thanks
:Try the Friends Reunited website, you can browse it for free but you'll have to pay if you want to contact someone.  If your relatives grew-up in Sparkbrook they probably went to Ladypool School of Golden Hillock School, there might be one or two Johnstons or Whitehouses listed on those pages. Aynuk N.

 suggests a number of alternative explanations, and I can't find anything to back up the 'Heath Heath' theory. Which is a shame because it's a nice factoid...
