Bernice, Hi from Sydney. Last time I looked there were floods in Queensland. Maybe you are west of the divide. I think you'd better provide some details of where you found the birth of Annie Monks. Do you have details of her parents marriage or any other siblings? Perhaps you are looking in the wrong county? The only Poulton that I could find was in Gloucestershire. But if you can provide other names, dates and exact locations or quotes some sources, I'm sure people will try to help. Peter
