Hello Catherine
This is amazing! It is only during the last four weeks or so I discovered that Margaret Elizabeth Davies (my great grandmother dob: 1873 born Heaton Norris/Moor) whom I have been searching for nearly 4 years had married. I discovered this after finding her mother's (Jane Davies) death and sent for a certificate. Margaret (my great grandmother) was the informant on the certificate with the surname Roscoe. No wonder I couldn't find her! All the information you provided me with fits in with everything I have. I really cannot thank you enough).

Many thanks
Jean

Well done Catherine!

Jean is obviously very pleased.

It's a real pleasure when everything comes together and those we are helping get back to us and let us know that all the info fits.


and thanks Dea, my faith is returning.
