Hi Irene, Thank you so much for telling me about the census search function. I've only this week, started the journey to verify what little info I had been given growing up and start to build the family tree.

Hi Penny, Thanks for this info, this woman is definitely part of my family tree but haven't been able to piece together that far back yet.
