Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 43 Send Message	I have Joseph Rhind b14/11/1858 M/c who married Eliza Leah b1859 M/c .They married 16th november 1881 (m/c I believe) Joseph died in 1945 and eliza in 1951. Although I have found their children and his family,I haven't yet got Eliza Leah's parent's and any siblings she may have.I no longer have access to any census except the 1881 and i would be everso grateful if anyone can locate any of the Leah family before she married.ANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIEATED as i'm now stuck.Many thanks Lesley .####### PLEASE NOTE#### I'm really sorry it should have read Rhind not mccaslin

	Yes hb I did that first ? I think there must be a problem somewhere? Lesley where did you get this information or did Joseph change his name ? And Joseph Rhind age 86 died in 1945 ????? And Eliza Rhind died aged 93 in 1951 !!!

	I can't find any Joseph McCaslin born 1858 in any of the census
Member Since: April 2006 Posts: 759 Send Message	Cassidy	Report	15 Feb 2009 02:27
Member Since: April 2006 Posts: 759 Send Message	Joseph Rhind is the person who died in 1945,age 86..Which matche's all the census information. There is no Joseph Mccaslin who died in 1945.

Member Since: April 2006 Posts: 759 Send Message	Eliza Rhind died 1951,Age 93.This again matche's all the census information.

Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 43 Send Message	Hi linsey,I Know it must seem like that, but the Joseph I am actually wanting the info for IS the one you have found the information for. Joseph Rhind married Eliza Leah.The problem in my tree is that there are too many Josephs.I promise you that the mistake was genuine on my part. However, I have got no info on Eliza Leah and any brothers or sisters etc so with what you have kindly taken the trouble to find, I can now add them to my tree. Sorry once again for my mistake in the name,lesley

	All the information is on your own tree, brothers ,sisters ,parents, if you have ancestry and GR then you have access to all the census details too, so why ask ?
