Thanks for that Sherry. Trouble is - I omitted to say that there is no Jewish connection. I have, however, just located some information in the 1881 London census that seems to have located her . She had re-married and became Josephine Atkinson. There should be some more info. to enable us to locate her birth in France. As for your connection problems with GebAmi - there are two possible addresses: Have you tried these? http://www.genami.org/index-en.php and http://www.genealoj.org/index.html?lg=en Hope these help.
