Roy - for now I will just keep it on file and see if anything comes up later. I am doing my tree on a budget and can't afford the £10!!!

Thanks so much!

hate to tell you this Una , but there are 'Ismenia's all over the place, so not all can be in your tree. Is Graham the surname in your tree?

If you can give something definite on one of the Ismenia's in your tree, then some of the others can be eliminated.

Hi Roy
The correct spelling of this name is Ismenia. It means Jasmine. It's really very unusual. And it is used continuosly for quite a few generations of one branch of my family. I know that both these Ismenia's belong in this branch of my tree :-D

It's this families way of leaving me a clue to find them;-D

Una if you are not certain of where Ismena was born you may need to give some more details... are you certain that the Ismena C Graham d 1961 is 'yours' ?

if so was that her married name or maiden name, what other info do you have , husband, children?

You may have to buy the cert to see who reported the death , it might give a lead.

I have another - same name!

try

http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#start

entering Ismena and 1877- 1879 Ireland brings up a couple of births...if you can find her on a later census with a county birthplace it might help.

I don't understand what makes you think that Ismena C Graham who died in 1961 is the same lady as Issamerrid Graham, as in the 1891 census
