Yes, you're probably right Elaine, if only that 1901 Census was available. I have a hunch that my ggm's second husband's birthplace may help in my search. He was the father of her first child! At some time, she must have been where he was (no immaculate conception here!) and I suspect it was around London. She said she ran away from home when found out she was pregnant. He didn't come to her rescue but her first husband did down in Plymouth. How she got from London to be down in Plymouth is a mystery in itself. This first husband was from Yeovil! I'll keep on plugging on and wathing the List - I'm learning so much about the Italian community in UK - thanks to all listers.

In my experience, Diane, it's wise to take what gggrandmother said with large, heart-threatening, doses of salt! ==== ANGLO-ITALIAN Mailing List ==== Italian Research http://www.dreamwater.net/anglersrest/Italian.htm ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
