My Great Grandfather, Benjamin Jewkes was born at Salop Street, Dudley, in 1838. His parents were Joshua and Elizabeth. In 1851 they lived in St. James' Terrace. Benjamin had a sister who married John Watton and was living at 541a Salop Street in 1881 and 1891.

Benjamin married Selina Nolan in 1860. They lived at 1 Dudley Street, 9 Dudley Street and 35 King Edmond Street from 1871 to 1891 at least. Others by the name of Jewkes who appear to be related lived in Stafford Street, Snow Hill and Shavers End. Most were miners, nailers or in service.All addresses in Dudley.
