Hello Anjella.
Have you checked for matches with other members by using 'search all trees' - found in search box above.
If all research will be in Belgium, I would add that to your heading.

I assume you have this from family search - their immigration into Belgium?

Full names father as stated, (1870), Louise Catherine Caroline (1892) and Elsa Charlotte Albertine (1894)

There's a tree (Campbell family) on Ancestry with your grandmother, but not her sister.

Anything & everything! No the photo is no longer my g-grandmother (or at least I don't think it is)

Hello Flip.
yes I did find this in the Immigratration records for Belgium and also I have made contact with the Campbell family whom I am visiting next year. so looks like i am up to date with this enquiry. ( i was hoping that she may have had children and therefore some descendants).

thanks for your information.
