Yes Sylvia, Elizabeth was married to William Stanfield, he died left three children then married Semei his brother who had Thirza and a few others.

Yes I also should have mentioned that 25 is the correct age on the census.

Yep, I know what Vancouver is like I have been there that is where my father and brother live.

I am so sorry that I must go now, still have things to do.

Bye

Thank you both of you, much appreciated your help, thought it would be easy but nothing ever is on Genes.

Only in Oz, we are off to Melbourne for two weeks and looking forward to it very much.

Most likely speak to you again in two weeks time.

Night Sylvia, you will be off to la la land soon

notice I'm ignoring your talk of weather???



we have a Pacific storm rolling in from Hawaii direction, pouring rain!!



vancouver is very like the UK ... about 5C warmer in summer and 5C colder in winter, and wet wet wet ....... the geographical area is officially Temperate Rain Forest!!


But go about 50 or 60 km inland, and you're into the snow and colder temperatures.

I cannot find Andrew, George, Emma, James anywhere in 1891. Either they were missed out or totally mistranscribed. But then I haven't found a George with parents Andrew & Emma either.

Have a lovely holiday. Where are you going?

I am getting carried away and forgetting the census you have been sending through, both of you are on the ball and sending me the 1901 Census and yes this time they are the correct ones. I think I will have to give the 1891 a miss, for some reason it does not want to be found.

Don't get me wrong Ozi, I am happy with some rain too, I hate the hot weather but so far we are getting too much of it don't you think!
I only commented to my husband the other day how lovely and green peoples lawns are which at this time of the year is most unusual.
You chose the wrong year to go to England, my sister lives there and I heard that last year wasn't good at all, they have given it to us.

I would. I live in Qld & I'm loving the rain. I have lawn again. I have flowers. No more bare earth.

We went to the UK last year for June, July & August. For the 60 odd days we spent in England 54 were rain!

It looks like the M in M J H has been crossed out. Looking at Thirza's 22, I'd say JH is 25 - correct?
