Trying to find Poole

I am trying to locate any (possible) relations who originated from Priorslee, Shropshire. My grandfather was a Richard James Poole who was born in 1885 in Priorslee. His father was a Samuel Poole (mother was Ann France). Richard moved to Wolverahmpton I think after the first world war and married a Maria Mason and between them had my dad, Reginald James Poole. Now, unknown to my dad, his dad (Richard, my grandfather) had a number of brothers and sisters, namely: Emily born 1880 Susanah born 1882 Elizabeth J born 1883 Mabel C born 1889 Jessie born 1891 Harry S born 1897 Samuel's (my great grandfather) parents were: Richard Poole born c1807 Jane (poss Chilton) born c1822 Samuel also had brothers: James born 1847 Robert born 1853 Albert born 1855 William born 1859 If there is anyone out there who had parents/grandparents with these names I would really like to hear from you, or if anyone else has any information that might help I would be very grateful. Thanks
