After almost 35 years the answers are clear but now we just have to find the right questions

The minister who performed the wedding was a Truesdale or something similar. Any ideas on which church this might have been? He didn't give me any dates or anyother info.

Cynthia sent us the following info on a great website: For those interested in British research, do check out ACDB. They take old books, put them on CD at a minimal price and then rebind the books and give them to libraries where they will be both used and preserved. They have a wonderful collection by now and are scanning more books each day. They have just started to put out census records, not indexes but copies of the originals. The address is <A HREF="http://www.archivecdbooks.org/">http://www.archivecdbooks.org</A> I have no connection with them other than as a satisfied customer. Check it out.

As I mentioned in the post last night, my paternal gramma and Margaret were first cousins. Altho I went out to the Martensen farm many times when I was growing up with my gramma for visits and eggs, and saw Margaret many other times, I kinda remember Mardella and remember the name David, but not Joan. I'm sure they would have known my dad's family ... Meyer from Goose Lake. My gramma was a Bielenberg and Margaret was a Herzberg and gramma's mom and Margaret's dad were siblings. You aren't by any chance Janice the daughter of Lillie are you?? Thanks ... Lynda
