Nat Certs...I have another family members alien/nat cert and his nat cert and on both it states his origin of birth, how long he was in the country for (listing all locations of living since arrival) it states his age upon arrival and which ship he arrived on.
Re Daughter yes that is the same Robert Metz...1st marriage young wife died age 24, childbirth. 2nd wife died age 24 childbirth and 3rd marriage lasted longer thankfully...in my DIRECT line same both parents there was only the 3 boys, but Robert himself fathered quite a number of children in his time.
But yes will be very interesting to try and find if this Metters is in deed my missing Metz...kind of is similar, and again now to find out IF he changed it legally...hmmmmm. a single question turns once again into a thousand with no solution...heehee
