I have noticed lately several people have offered to do look ups if they have access to pertinant records. I have tried without any success to locate my GGrandmother I have very few facts, mostly gleaned from her children's baptismal records and her death certificate. The children were baptised in the Roman Catholic Church and her name was recorded as Ellen White:(Helene) Orange County N.Y. She died in 1899, aged 64. Her eldest child was born in 1863/64 Her husband Dennis Murphy pre-empted land here in B.C. in 1862, whether that was before or after they married is not known but one family story has them marrying in N.Y. State. I hope someone can find her, maybe 1840 or 1850 census. Pat
