Minnie Stroud

[deb usa]

I think ordering Henry's Birth cert may be a great help. at least we could hopefully go back further on your Thomas Line!

Minnie Stroud is hiding 

I have looked for a Minnie with parents James and Mary Ann, using no surnames.....cannot see her at all.

I have just found Minnie on the 1921 census with her husband and she has listed herself as Florence Minnie Thomas.

So maybe that 1881 census is correct.
