Gerri,

It's not often that a 16 year old would remember exactly where she was born, especially if her parents weren't around to remind her......... Fleetwood could be just were she remembers?

Just worked that out too Dee...bummer!

Looks like i will have to wait for her to find her birth cert.

Gerri

What is Joans birthdate.......... just day and month would do.

If Joan could remember her Grandparents names that may help too?


Dee x

Ummm.......... but that means Jessie was only 15 when she had Joan and even younger when she had Dorothy!

Any little snippets that can be remembered would help.

I had an aunt Jessie. Only ever known as Jessie. On her birth cert she is recorded as Jessie. However, i have seen Jessie mistranscribed as Jassie.

Hi Gerri,

so the parents names are just names passed down from Joan then? I wonder if over the years they got muddled??
