Margaret Report 22 Nov 2013 00:47

Thank you,
I have looked at all those names and just couldn't make out why so many same numbers, thank you for explanation, I thought it was too good to be true, all the cenuses show that his wife was Elizabeth, and I have a copy of her death cert. but of course no maiden name, I have sent off for one of their son's birth cert. that may show something, I waste so much time and money on the Speller family, always thought it was an unusual name, how wrong can you be. Margaret


(did you manage to get Birth Cert. Margaret?, which William, or child are you following?)
