thank you ann
can tell me how i can go about finding the maiden name of sarah morgan
she died in 1816 i think this info would allow me to find where they came from
i cant ask for a marriage certificate without knowing where they came from it seem a chicken and egg thing or perhaps i have come to the end of the road , thank you
