Hi there
I'm trying to confirm some background information for Eugenie Lelia Butone who, as far as I know, was born in Guernsey on 2 Jul 1893. She married Robert Smith Kirkland from Glasgow, Scotland, my 2nd cousin once removed, on 2 April 1919 at St Saviour's Church, Paddington, London and they emigrated to the USA on 19 September 1919 on board the S.S. "Baltic". Robert died in San Mateo, San Mateo County, California, USA on 17 January 1960 and Eugenie remarried to Silas James Sancier in Clark County, Nevada, USA on 14 February 1962. She died in San Mateo County, California, USA on 26 June 1984.
I should like any Census information, and to know who her parents were - I think her mother's maiden name may have been Calvert - and if she had any siblings.
Any assistance anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

I have that in mind if all else fails, Jennifer. Meanwhile I was hoping that someone on the island may be a RootsChatter ;)
