I think that I will just have to give a "general" thank you to everyone, you are all posting faster than I can express my thanks.

Has anyone had any luck finding census records.

I can not find anything on ancestry

Thank you Dea.

I wonder why she was first baptised while in the hospital.

May be 'they' thought that she might not survive ??

Very frustrating.

Please, please can someone help me.
