Choccy ................

it does look as though we have the right Ellen Longer ................ even though "ours" doesn't seem to have a middle name.


BUT, the birth certificate is necessary to prove it.

Researching:
My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.
