The photo shows the area in the cemetery, where the graves of William and also his parents John and Rose Ellen Holland are. Unfortunately there is nothing there to show there names, either there were no gravestones or they have slowly broken down and been removed. Photo I took on the 10-01-2021.

Many thanks to Colin Draper at the Hive Worcester, for all his help he gave me with finding my grandparents and their son William Holland's information, regarding their deaths.

Folio: 2826
No of Entry: 56519
Name: John Holland
Occupation: Retired
Residence: ••106 Sherlock Street, Birmingham.
Place of Death: 156 Broadstreet, Worcester.
Age: 70
Date of Burial: 12th June, 1946.
Vicar:
*Grave No: 24097
Consecrated.
Registrar: R. P. Phipps.

In the 1939 register my grandfather John Holland is living at •• 106 Sherlock Street, St. Martin's, Birmingham, (I think that this was a hotel or flats as lots of people of different trades were living here) His birthday is given as September 1876, ( unfortunately the day of his birth, was for some reason left out) he is a widower and his occupation is bricklayer (heavy work).

Finding him in Birmingham explains why in the past I could not find him on the 1939 register.

All his children that were still alive were married and had children and probably had no room to have put him up. Also though he was still working as a bricklayer and perhaps he had to go to Birmingham to be able to survive and earn a living.

His son John Edward Holland (Ted) my father had married just a year before the 1939 register, in 1938. He was the last of John's children to get married and afterwards my father lived there with my mother Doris, and her parents; my other grandfather and grandmother John and Lucy Jones.
