Don't know about you 2, but it's a quarter past midnight for me. I'm haveing to correct so many spelling mistakes because I'm to tired to think straight.
I will check back in the morning to see how you are going, Goodnight for now, Julie

hi julie
yes i found that one too the mary 1824 but no joseph so went onto search for joseph in 1861 as he would have been 11/12 years old and thought he may have been visiting but i could.t find him so because i can.t place him with this wm & mary may i.m not sure its the right family all i can tell you is that time of marriage 1873 (joseph) he was living at back hanover street leeds and so was ann gray
do you want me to send you some tablets cos if this blags your head like it has been mine for months you will need them
