Tom, How can I find where my husband's grandmother came from when I don't have a city in Wales? She died in Scranton 27 Feb. 1936, and was born in Wales 9 March 1883. She married Frank McCloskey, who was born 22 Feb. 1878 in Newton PA. I heard she was buried in the Washburn Cemetery, but I haven't found her. The one time I got to that cemetery, no one was on the premises, and I got chased out by a thunder storm. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Ruth

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/ Ruth, try the above link. It is free, though it is not complete. I have found some ancestors here and then followed up by ordering their birth/marriage/death records. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> : Tom, How can I find where my husband's grandmother came from when I don't : have a city in Wales?
