I think you might have to get the marriage certificate to find out her father's name and her age and work back from that.

Do you know when and where she died?

I was hoping to avoid getting the marriage cert. until I had tried every avenue, but hadn't thought about the death date, that will give me a better clue as to her birth, thanks Londonbelle, I 'll get on to that.

I wasn't too sure as it says Louise Bertha on marriage to Edward but everything else fits, so maybe just a mistake on the "e" and "a" .

Hope these are the right parents for the Mabel that Yvette is looking for :-)
