You are very welcome.

I bought credits for another purpose and had to use the remainder up as they expire. I don't usually use the Worldwide Records and was amazed at the information they give. It's a shame I don't have any relatives who emigrated

If you use the free people searcher site www.whitepages.com, you'll find a name and address which might be the son's. Scarey, eh?

Sarah, you can contact Marcie directly by clicking the purple "send message" button under her name, it's unlikely she'll see your reply on here.

Even though you've tried to disguise your email addy they're not allowed and not needed anyway because of the messaging system. Best you edit your post to remove it.
