    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

If so, by using a plus/minus 1 years entry for a birth of 1889 minus 29=1860 the list is rather narrow. By a suggestion from your birth guess of 1855 I went to birth circa 1857 with the same math and came up with a Sarah A REEVES dau of Enoch and Sarah, age of 3 in 1861 census, Madeley, Shropshire. born there. Two other choices: Sarah born abt 1856 to William and Jane in albrighton, Shropshire and residing there, and Sarah born to Frances and Charlot born abt 1858 in Whixall, Shropshire and living there. If you want any of these read for family I would be happy to do so. This was not a soundex search; it was "exact"..........in spelling of REEVES. Perhaps you might check for JACKSON in the area of these three prospect up to the probable migration year if they actually might have came over at the same time on the same ship or something..........
