Thanks for looking, Vera - think I'm just going to regard Albana as missing for the time being!
I've searched under all the possible obvious mistransciptions I can think of... I bet she's hiding somewhere under some wonderfully wildly inaccurate transcription ;-)

Regards
Lou

Hi Lou,
Have not had any luck with Albina etc., on the 1891.

I wonder what she had been mistranscribed under !!!
