Welcome Craig....I am just across the border in the Toronto area. Lots of folks here to help you dig. And if you had any Canadians, well we cover that too.
Post those questions of yours and we will help you to dig up the answers. Could you take a moment to pop your location into your personal profile, please? That way, we will know not to expect you to trundle into the Smoke at a moment's notice.
Welcome Craig
In the surname forum you mentioned you had lost Rosa. You don't say an age or anything else about her, but there is a death registration for a Rosa Reuter , in London Jan. 1894...says she was born in 1833. Is this your Rosa?
So that introductions do not get mixed up with research questions, I have moved Craig's details about Rosa to a new thread. If Half Hour and Ma-dotcom would like to see if their information is on the right tracks, click here for the new thread.
