Well after re-examining my family tree I stared around a year ago I looked and my 2x great grandparents.
I realized I was missing a lot of information and something seemed Very wrong with what I had down for Alice Cresswell's family and would like help clearing it up... I started with a little information that led to other tree's on "Ancestry" which seemed to turn into a copy and paste fest with no proof... I got caught up in that and moved on up my tree.
I am looking for mostly Alice's family and information on when she was actually living with Henry.

Facts I have that I know are true

Henry Whiteman's parents (I had another post on the Beginners board about them)
Thomas Whiteman (He is still a brickwall but one thing at a time)

I have Henry's Sibling and don't want to focus on them here.
