Find Ancestors

Thank you MarieCeleste for all your help it is very much appreciated and has given me infirmation i didn't know.
Would you be able to tell me of any sites that i would be able to search for a birth in America?

Donnie - I have a subscription to Ancestry Worldwide. I'm not aware of any free sites, other than FamilySearch - but I've never had much luck on there for US BMDs.

US records are harder to search than ours as they are all grouped by state or county, and not all are available.

Is this to do with the announcement of a daughter that you mentioned? Do you have any further details?

MarieCeleste --- Sadley this is all the information I have as Morley was in LA in 1930 when the census was taken I did wonder if their daughter might have been born there. But this is on my assumption that because she was not with them for the census she must have been born after it was taken. Also that they stayed in LA for a while but then in 1941 Morley died in Ohio so I quess she could have been born anywhere..
I guess this is a needle in a haystack

Donnie Ive added some info to the census I posted yesterday on page one. It looks like Ada was married before and Jarl was in fact Jack!

Good find, Gins!

I wonder if this is Ethel' remarriage and her death and that of her husband?

Thinking about it, they were down that end of the country when he went off to the states. Also this would have been very late for a first marriage and birth year matches your Ethel

Got to be worth sending for the marriage certificate

Thanks Gins i will follow that up
