Dear Roger I am sure there are people on this List who can be of help to you. However, I am not sure from this note whether: 1: You are just keeping us informed as to the state of your research, or 2: You are hoping someone else has researched your family and will get in touch with you telling you all you want to know, or 3: You would like some assistance in looking up records or obtaining certificates, or 4: You might appreciate some advice as to what to do next. Whichever it is, why not try being more direct? |You could get results.

If she said Flushing in one census and Falmouth in another, it was probably because in the second case she thought people would be more likely to know where Falmouth was, than Flushing or Mylor. ==== >I have been unable to find records of her birth, death, marriage. nothing >but what is on the census returns.which can be erroranous. == Have you tried 1837Online, or is that another web site your ISP will not allow you access to?
