When and where was she born?

Was/is Webb her maiden name?

Have you looked in 'search trees'?

Not sure if it helps. but there is a website for travellers, might be worth a look:

There is also a link on there to a Facebook page.

I see you have her in your GR tree...totally against site rules.

You must have the permission of every living person whose details you post in a GR tree

Flick, where is this rule stated please? I think I might have committed such an offence but can't see where it says so.
Do wonder about the logic of this given that a tree can only be viewed by permission and yet the "find living relatives" bit can be viewed by anyone and can reveal that a person has parented a child that no-one knows about and the info is available for the whole world to see. Seems rather contradictory to me :-S
