Thanks Sharon, sounds like good advice to me. ;-) Mine just seem to fall thru the cracks of the 'in-between census' times. Maybe I can as you say find some other documents. Sharon Sharon when I start feeling that way, I just start with myself again, work back and document everything with a document. Birth, marriage, census, obit, newspaper article, cemetery record, obit of siblings, wills, deeds, and the list just goes on and on..............Sharon Broward Davis
