By 1901 vital records were reported pretty consistently in Massachusetts and an adoption might show up as an ammended/corrected entry but would be visible in somw way. I would keep looking for variations of Florence, Tower, etc., because I would expect to be able to find something. Max Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
