Michelle Report 28 Apr 2010 08:48

there was but i think she was adoped but the reason i say i have the wrong family is i found 2 people sons of roses brothers and they have diffrent names and dates for alfred and amelia and another person from my family ordered roses sisters birth cert and it sa mother turner so i dont know what to think and who has the right family

Michelle

Michelle Report 28 Apr 2010 08:51

Vicci Report 28 Apr 2010 09:23

can you give the dates of birth of the children

where does Rose fit in?

do you have anything definitive eg marriage of one of the children that would have Alfred's occupation on for instance?

Michelle, unless you can actually find a birth index for any of these children, I think there's a mix up somewhere. I can't find a Roberta Jacobs/variant birth or death.
