Hi Christine,

Very much appreciate those records that you have turned up. Thank you. I can add a little more detail to my tree. The death in California is a little puzzling, but his mother who died giving birth to Thomas in 1883 in UK was Alice Spencer, which confirms the record.

I certainly would love the images please, I will send you my e mail address direct rather than post it on this message board.


Regards, Ron
