§ I take Joseph to be the Joseph Poole mentioned in The Romance of a Century, a historical record of Graingers Lane Methodist Church from 1821 - 1927 By John T. Wilkinson B.A.B.D.

We also think of one greatly honoured by all who know him in our midst, Joseph Poole, who for almost thirty years has held the office of Treasurer to the Church. During this long term he has discharged his duties with the utmost faithfulness and minute accuracy, and the financial side of any Church could not be in more trustworthy or capable hands. Characterized by a wise caution in all matters of expenditure, he counts no labour too great to offer for the service of the Church he loves so well. We trust that for many years to come he may continue in the work of this important office. We may add that his interest in the wider life of the community is attested by his service upon the Dudley Town Council, as a member for the Netherton Ward during the seven years 1914 - 21, the holding of which position is a testimony to the esteem of those who know him beyond the bounds of our Church Life.
