Pure shot in the dark.

You might try giving this chap a ring. If nothing else he may be able to tell you something about the origins of the name Quansoon.

Hello Delilah,

It may well be worth putting the name Quansoon into the Search Trees box above as there are 10 matches for that name in trees on this site - 2 for Ewan. You have the option of contacting the tree owners for further info.

Owen (not Ewen) was my husband. What connection do you have?
Roma was his first wife.

Welcome to the boards Kathleen

As delilah never returned in 2012 she is unlikely to return now

Click on her name and send a private message...if her email address is still the same she will be notified

Forget that She has deleted her account so you cannot contact her anyway

Not sure why Roma's details have been posted?

The OP has left the site, so wasn't that interested in the first place

It gives Kathleen the option as she knows about Roma PLUS she must have searched to find this thread

Perhaps some one else can find a link to Delilah

:-S

As we do not know who Delilah is or whether that is even her real name....my name isn't Jax as it happens or I doubt whether your name is Fairthorn?

I would imagine Kathleen knows about any children Roma had as they are mentioned on her husbands obituary
