Hi Sylann, I've added some further info to my first post (I'd missed the second page!).

Who was the child with grandparents in 1911? Might that be the daughter who eventually went to America?

Sylann

Sylann Report 11 Dec 2011 15:34

Thank you for all that,

The trip doesn't tell me anything unless she was going to visit a family member ?

But I can look into her death a bit more may be find out where she is buried

She says she's going to visit daughter V. Overholser, 109 17th. Ave., Sterling, Illinois. Does that name mean anything to you?

Hi Sylann, as I stated above she's going to visit a daughter - could that be the child who's not with the family in 1911?

EDIT: Have looked at the 1911 and according to that, she'd only had the two children who are both still alive, and they are shown with her and Alfred.

So, I don't see how a child could have been with grandparents?
