Has anyone any information on the Harper's of Dodderhill/Stoke Works or Stoke Prior?

June Price (nee Harper)

June you need to give some details like a time frame and possible names you are looking at

Do you have dates and first names?

Also.............what info are you hoping for?

Have you tried using freebmd to do research?.........assuming you want info after July 1837

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/

Have you checked in 'search all member trees'........under the 'search' button.....for links on GR?

There are two Stoke Priors............in which County is the one in which you are interested?

EDIT

It would appear that this refers to the Worcestershire village

Registration district is Droitwich

Hello June and welcome to the Community boards..



Note: I will let June know that she has replies to her query :-)

Thank you all?

The Harper's I am related to come from Dodderhill-Stoke Works and Stoke Prior Worcestershire UK :-)

Are the Samuel and Benjamin Harper mentioned in your old thread your relatives, or are they a different lot of Harpers?

Did you manage to find out anything more about them, perhaps from Dianne on that thread?

EDIT: Well perhaps it's not your thread! I just saw the name June, and assumed it was yours.
