Zoe, I saw that, but initially discounted as Elizabeth is not with them, but could be right. St Helier is of course Jersey. |

i did see that entry but i dont recognise any of the other discombes (not that i know them!) she does have a sister elizabeth that would have been 3, cant find her at all. I know fromseeing elizabeths birth certificate a while ago, her parents are ann cole and james discombe. i have them in 61 minus james as ann is now remarried and is downa s the girls step father. think james was a figmant of her imagination as i cant see sight nor sign of him. so im doubtful that is the right entry. lou |
