50 BIRMINGHAM Thomas Swindell was born about 1828 in Burton on Trent. By 1854 he was married and settled in Great Bridge, Staffordshire (on the Walsall canal) (. He was a boatman (bargee) So was his son Francis ( ), who settled in Milk Street (2 Rea Terrace), Birmingham. In 1901 Court 2 Milk Street: Its state can only be described as awful; an abomination. The unpaved, ill-drained yard was at the time of our visit half-full of water. The outhouses were disgusting. The rain was running off the roof in one part and down the wall onto a broken shed. It then trickled down and formed a filthy slop in front of a man's door.
