Thank you so much everybody so appreciated. Never gave a thought that she may have moved down south or travelled abroad.

I was thinking of Manchester addresses only

Supposed to have been able to sort it myself but have been a bit under the weather of late and my brain is a bit fuzzed at the moment.That is why I asked for fresh eyes to have a look at it.

Now we need info on Joseph H Roscoe - if there are some shipping records for him?

Well done, Choccy, that does looks like the right Amelia :-D

Reggie, do you just make all those rude remarks to boost your "Post numbers" ?

Everyone has to learn --and sometimes records are not where we expect to find them.

I see Reggie has taken the remarks off this thread---
