Re William Cornett.  I saw that obit but too old.  Family history says William was a sea-going engineer (from a daughters birth certificate) supposedly died at sea or in San Francisco about 1905.  Nevertheless wife and 3 daughters left for Canada 1910.  Unable to find any info on William-jumped ship?  Any ideas?  Thanks

That would be him.  Does it give any info on parents and siblings?  I am trying to build a family tree and it's very difficult for a rank amateur.  Thanks

You are a fantastic researcher!!  You have hit the nail on the head,  this is my maternal grandfather's family.  My Mum didn't even know her grandfather's proper name.  Rootschat is a marvelous source and I salute you.  Much thanks

You are not being anything but helpful.  The fault is mine-poor info from my end.  The story I just got from my Mother is as follows- Harry and Lizzie Wilson had 7 kids-my gfather William was the eldest-he was born 1900 or so (no data)  They had 7 kids 5 born in England 2 in Canada.  Left England 1910ish.  The marriage that you found in Staffordshire is likely correct.  Could you tell me where you found it so I can see it? Regards
