Wow, I am so thankful for all of this help! It is such much appreciated! I was looking about for Sarah Lydia Connolly but couldn't find anything other than a Lydia Connolly leaving England in 1935 for Colorado ... as I know for definite through your help, Lydia's sister Elizabeth Risbry was living in Colorado at this time! Thank you!

Wow, thank you; I can't believe the overwhelming response I have had to this query! This is so highly appreciated, and your searching really does help me as I often travel and don't have time to sit down and do all of the work myself! Thank you so very much!

MY appetite has been whetted now, and can I ask if anyone is able to see Thomas' brothers George Henry and Herbert in the 1911 census? That would be fantastic!

George Henry (born 1877 in Bermondsey, Surrey) married Eliza Barker on 20 April 1908 in Rotherhithe, St Olave, Bermondsey, London. This is all I know of him.

I know nothing of what became of Herbert (born 1879 in Bermondsey, Surrey) after he was living with his parents in 1901.

Your help is appreciated!

Thank you
