I'm back, Linda. Just found out that I had a copy of that obit among the million papers that we have in this house. I've just managed to scan it, all by myself, I might add. Normally I do it under hubby's instuctions but he's in bed.

Now shall I try to attach it to a pm on GR or do you want to click on my name and send me your email address? I've never attached anything to a GR message but I'm sure I can do it. However I have been told that you get a better image by attaching to an email message. I don't really know, it's up to you.

On second thought, I'm going to try to attach it to a pm to you.

I think I did it!!!
Don't forget to write the date of the newspaper on it. It was The Cornwall Standard, 16 Jan. 1919.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Can't thank you enough Margee, it has arrived and is perfect.

It certainly gives me the proper spelling, Cascinda, also lots of other names to work with.

I shall certainly be busy and may even, eventually, be able to contact some living relations.

The W.J Empey who is mentioned was my Dad's half-sisters husband. When I realize called Cascinda my GGGreat Aunt is total bunkum lol

Thanks so much again

Linda

I've noticed people do change their year of birth, but almost never their birthday.
