Greg, I am researching the Birch family but my line is for Elizabeth Birch who married Jacob Reynolds in the USA. Sorry I don't know the date but I do know that Jacob Reynolds died in 1900 in Fulton or Mason County, Illinois, USA. I am also researching the Whitehouse family from England. Would be John Wilhelm Whitehouse who married Rosannah Robinson. Again not sure of the date but John died 1880 in Kewanee, Henry County, Illinois. He is buried at Pleasant View Cemetery. With this little information do think there is a chance we can connect? Sure hope so. Have a nice day.
