Albert Bird Armstrong - Utah

[*Sandra*]

Your very welcome Bob. Must admit when I first looked this morning, I thought aah, Utah Mormons and Multiple marriages but it was'nt quite like that.
This would be the 1900 census for William Bird Armstrong and Mary Kemp which helps you to check that I have named the correct children for the correct parents in the later census.
Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah.
William Armstrong 35 Marriage Year 1888. This William died in 1931. (Father William Bird Armstrong 1841 - died in 1927)
Mary K Armstrong 32
William B Armstrong 11
Sadie Armstrong 9
Donna G Armstrong 2 - her marriage and details listed earlier.

Thanks to you all. It always helps to have a more unusual name like 'Bird' as help in research.  I go quietly mad sifting through the numerous John's & William's!!!
Cheers
Bob
