Quite some time ago I asked help from RootsChatters on behalf of my friend who could not trace a baby born to great grandparents. A second baby had been given the name of the first so the first had died but we could not trace him.
 To be brief -- it was a monumental spelling error in the register of deaths. Understandable  but not obvious until the names of all the Italian parents who had lost a baby in the set time span were compared re address , first names, Italian village where they were born etc.
Well Scotland`s People did all that and he`s been found. Whooping cough and Pneumonia at just about a year old and the new baby who was given the same name born just after.
I`d like to thank all who made helpful suggestions etc .
My friend phoned me with the news and it is just 20 year since she first started her search.
She was so pleased to find him.
Perseverance pays off !
