Hi Suzanne & Christine WOW! This is great. Thanks so much. Suzanne- Re Ada in 1901 census;I thought if Robert Sisman was head of the house then surely Temperance Sisman would be his mother,not his mother-in-law. What do you make of it? Christine- Thanks for going backwards; I think this is the direction I need to go to connect my familes. Thats the trouble with all the William Sisman's. I love the name Temperance . Wish they would have named all the children weird & wonderful names! Kerri
