I am saving the grandson's mother as Catherine. The other 2 daughters are married after 1851. Catherine was not living with the family in 1841 so not sure what to make of her story.

I do not understand the background of the people working on this message board. If people are taking time out of their own research to help find information then I am very grateful.

I can probably search through parish registers myself now that I have this information. I do not want to take up too much of anyone's time as I am new to this research and message boards.

well we are all fellow GR members who help out on the boards, but whoever helps, surely thank you should come naturally to whoever- we obviously all enjoy doing it and are happy to do it

Perhaps had you read the permanent GR posting at the head of this board you would have understood better

I have no idea what a GR posting is. It is difficult searching for all this information and processing it so I will have a rest for a bit.

Now that I understand that it is real people who are volunteers that have helped. I was shocked when all the information appeared within the lunchtime. It was almost like it was computer generated. The replies were so efficient that it was almost seemed like a computer's reply. Like when I look up census records. I do not know the process that people would have gone through to find the information. Probably looking through databases so thanks for all the time you had to spend looking through databases.

no probs Linda - all the info I find is from the free Mormon LDS base - take a look for yourself
