Heritage obviously numbers the pages differently than Ancestry. Heritage shows 130 pages for ward three so they must break out every single page rather than pairs of sheets as a page. Once I got that page 14 was sheet 14 I was finally able to close in on it. This is how it was listed in Heritage. 1930 > PENNSYLVANIA > ALLEGHENY > 3-WD WILKINSBURG BORO, Series: T626 Roll: 1993 Page: 117 Thanks for all the assistance. -- Gene Y. n2kvs Researching Young, Zies, Harer & Cox with Legacy Family Tree http://h1.ripway.com/egptech/

Do you want info on Pearl's siblings, or were you just interested in Pearl herself? Or her husband (although I did already try to find him prior to their marriage, but didn't have much luck using the spellings I knew or by using soundex). Take care, Cathy
