Dear Listers, Hoping for some help! I am trying to trace our TRUEMAN ancestors. Unfortunately there are 2 possible families (both of which I have got on with researching), but until I know the first name of the WIFE of great grandfather George TRUEMAN, (both lines), I won't know which family is the correct one. I could send for the marriage certificate of George TRUEMAN & Clara A. ORGAN, 1914,(grandparents) which would at least give me George's age....(aprox.27 or 30 depending on the line)...both fathers' names were, again, George. In the end, I probably will have to send for it. Unfortunately I have already spent a small fortune on certificates, so I thought a plea to the list might be helpful first? Was 'our' George's mother Emily, or Esther? Has anyone already done research on either of the two families below: - Family 1 : - 1901 (31st March).
