This is fantastic!  Thank you all so much. 

You've solved the mystery of why we could never find William Ansell.  All these years we thought he was born in Ireland.  He must not have been. 

I called my parents and read them all the messages, they were so excited. 
Thank you from both of them as well.  We really appreciate the help you've all given us.
