There are a couple of possible births for Dorothy which you can look for on Freebmd.org.uk

this is the more likely one perhaps

Births Dec 1903 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tomes Dorothy Wolverhampton 6b 636


but you'll probably need the marriage cert to confirm Dorothy's age and father's name

Marriages Jun 1930 (>99%)


Tomes Dorothy Cavigan Wolverhampton 6b 1255

Alan, just to let you know l54 Crocketts Road, could possibly be Handsworth, also with the mention of West Bromwich covering Handsworth do they mean way back in time?
