Great thanks to Kathryn from Canada (Janey), for finding my husband's Uncle Noey that he remembered from his childhood but hadn't a clue who he was. Kathryn recalled another person with a Noah from Clayton le Moors in her tree, put me in touch, and magic, we now know he was Noah Catterall, a name my husband immediately recognised. It was a bit of a wild card, and I would never have found the connection without Kathryn.

Even more, she mentioned a birth that I had either missed, disregarded or perhaps wasn't there when I looked, of my Hubbie's great grandmother. Long story there cos her daughter was clearly aware there was something "not right" with her mother's birth cos the family had sent for several incorrect birth certificates in the 1920s, but Kathryn found the right one from 1855!

Thanks Kathryn, and many happy hours of helping people.

Love

Margaret
