Looking for Griffin of Bromsgrove UK
Looking for any information regarding my Grandfather, THOMAS HENRY GRIFFIN who came from the Bromsgrove area in the UK. I know he came to Australia in 1916 and married my Grandmother, Alice CRISP also from the Bromsgrove area. Thomas' Father was WILLIAM HENRY GRIFFIN who was a farmer. His Mother was ALICE LOYNES. Thomas came from a large family and I know he had a Brother, Lawrence who was the youngest in the family and a Sister, Mabel. Any help in finding out any more information would be appreciated.

Thank you so much for this information. Up to now, I have been unable to find any information regarding my Grandparents from Bromsgrove. Now that you have sent this info, I see my Grandfather had a Sister Constance and I do remember my Grandmother writing to an Aunty Connie in England when I was a child. Your help is really appreciated. Now with all these family names I can really start researching.
