While on the trail of ALFORDs, I found in the 1881 Census for England an Alice R. ALFORD born "Donegal". She was estimated to have been born 1869 and now age 12 living in East Stonehouse, Devon, England at 60 East Street the Stepdaughter of John G. MAY. I looked in the Indexes for her birth and found... Alice Rosana ALFORD, 1868 Births volume 17 page 258, Millford. Details from the film for volume 17 page 258... Entry #365, Alice Rosana ALFORD born 7 Oct at Rathmullen to William ALFORD and Elizabeth Anna ALFORD ms ADAM. Occupation 'Leading Seaman' RN. Residence Rathmullen. Informant was E. A. ALFORD, mother of Rathmullen. Registered Milford Nov 24. She may have no links to the ALFORDs I'm looking for but I won't discount her yet. Am looking a full 60y earlier. Will look in the Indexes backwards from 1868 to see if their marriage is listed. MegG in OK -------------------------------------------------
