	Can we go back any further- to the parents of Herbert sullivan or Elizabeth Higginson?
Member Since: July 2006 Posts: 21,823 Send Message	brummiejan	Report	9 Apr 2010 09:35
	Surest way would be to get the marriage cert to ascertain their fathers' names. Incidentally, Elizabeth's birthplace is Sandbach! I think the transcriber was having a bad day. Jan
