you guys are absolutely incredible!!

words can explain how thrilled I am with the amazing help and information you have found its beyond anything I could have expected.

Its opened up my mind that perhaps Hilda did not have a dad is one I didn't think of I just thought perhaps the family just didn't know but it explains the missing information of her dad and also jumping straight to her grandparents.


Majm I don't have a marriage certificate I have absolutely nothing for this portion of the family I only had Hilda birth and death dates the children Elizabeth had and then Andrew and Naomi. I knew nothing of where Andrew came from ect. but that newspaper obit you posted WOW again thanks so much that is worth its weight in gold it gives me so much to work with and look more info up on him about. FYI the daughters name in the obit are exactly the same names I have that are his kids so that was super exciting I had a jump up and down moment reading that!!!

again thanks so super much to everyone and the time you have taken to look that info up it so super nice of you. I send you lots of good karma your way and I hope something nice comes back to you

THANKS MILLIONS.

Hi PF
No, there is not one major website that brings answers. Would be nice
It is just about seeking records from many different resources,some private, some public and piecing it all together.
It is always very much a team effort and we follow each other's clues and just keep exploring. Sometimes we get satisfactory results, but not always
Many have contributed to this thread and I'm sure we are all pleased to have helped
