Hi Jane 

Thank you for your query. Did your family emigrate? and if so was it to the USA or Canada? I would recommend the same route of investigation that I gave you in a previous message and that would be to start with the emigration records. Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.

 

Kind regards,
