Jazzyzee

It might help us pinpoint the right Ada if we knew who she was related to.

Where does she fit into your tree ?

Whose daughter?, wife
or sister or mother is she ?

There has been (I think) an increase in the number of thread deletions in the past few weeks. No idea what could be prompting this.

Gins - as you appear to have the thread open in a separate tab (in order to C&P the posts) then could you not click on Jassyzee's name on the post to send them a message and ask why deleted?
