I think I have at long last found my John Poole born c1859 on 1837 but..... I 'THINK' it says wolverhampton 6b-9?(maybe wishful thinking) He's the second one up from the bottom on 1st quarter 1859. Hand written. If no one can read this, whats my next step please? Gerri.

I think it says Wolverhampton too. I know my Walsall regs are 6b and wolverhampton isn't that far, unfortunately I couldn't read the last bit would guess at 94 Linda
