Greetings from Australia. We are enjoying our time seeing the family
in their new surroundings. Also we have spent a few days in Mooloolaba,
on the east coast, and will fly to Sydney for a week in June. The normally
wonderful Queensland weather has changed recently, with high winds
and heavy rain, parts of the area being declared disaster zones!
See you all soon.
Love from Fr. John and Christine

really pleased about the web site and its obvious continuing success.
I had a discussion with a friend recently about the pelican and
remembered the entry on this site some time ago Father Paul at the
time spoke about the pelican and how it feeds its young , my
friend thought I was making it up , however I will be pleased to
mention the ritual is correct so nice to see names of friends still as
members of the church must visit again soon.

I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the time and effort
that has
been put into creating this website. My great great grandparents
were married in this church, and I was so thrilled to be able to
find some pictures of it. I have been researching my family history
for quite sometime, but to get really good pictures is a little difficult
for me because I live in Canada. When I came across this website,
I knew I had been given a gift. Thank you so very much.

This site is great. I was very excited about the plan of the
graves.
I found my gt x 4 grandparents graves. Very emotional.
I must visit next time I am in the UK.

Have recently been researching my family history and stumbled
upon your wonderful website whilst looking for information about
my Great Great Grandfather John Henry Round, who had been a
lay preacher in Amblecote. To find both him and my Great Great
Grandmother Sarah Ann listed as being buried in your churchyard
was fantastic.
Thank you so much for taking the time to build such a wealth
of information.
God bless.
Tina.

This is an excellent website. I was very pleased, to find in
the
Parish Records, the details of the burials of my Grandparents and
other people I knew when I lived in Amblecote (King William Street)
for the first 26 years of my life.

I am researching on behalf of the Friends of Croome Park the
seat of the
Earls of Coventry. Discovery has been made of the grave of William
Dean Head Gardener for 40 years at Croome. His wife Mary Dean
however moved to Stourbridge after his death (1831) and she is
buried at Amblecote Church. She died on 20 August 1857. Would
you have an indication of where in the churchyard Mary Dean might
be buried. No memorial is listed on the web and it might be that
any stone is now illegible. Any help would be most gratefully received.
I was brought up in Amblecote and know the church well!
