There are 7 entries, and the Birmingham one has a post-em - an envelope icon - against it. It says: "CERTIFICATE NOT MINE - FREE TO GOOD HOME James Adams m. Mary Ann WHITWORTH 24 Nov 1849, St. Martin Birmingham, Fathers are William Adams, Shoe Maker and Thomas Whitworth, Pearl Button Maker" and gives contact details. Or try a Thomas LEE, birth Mar 1884. Lots - the last, Thomas William S LEE, born in Birmingham. It says: "This entry is for Thomas William Samuel Lee who emigrated to Canada with his wife Elsie Eliza (nee Hadley also of Birmingham)Thomas (known as Bill) lived for many years in Richmond BC and died in Prince George BC April 5, 1967. "and gives contact details. So - that's how they can appear. To add one, you go to any event which is relevant to you, click the info button, and add a post-em. It won't appear immediately - only when the next update is done. Wendy
