-Hi Tracy and Maureen,
Thank you for asking--Great Party had by all --but had to "think again" as weather was bad so no BBQ --ended up with Chinese take away --AND a "Thomas" cake --LOL at least they all had fun --and the BBQ tihings in freezer --so watch this space for another "party"

Tracy I will take a look at your other 2 postings (printed them off so can study them better) I don't think the 1911 death can be right if "your" one died Sept quarter 1911 he would have been somewhere on 1911 census ---and Eliza was down as widow. !! ? be back soon
Best wishes
Barbara

Stacks of time now Tracy, the others have all "flown the nest" but are quite near me--a big help because I'm "housebound" and my grandchildren are really great. I still come in handy for baby-sitting --except the baby of my grandchildren is now 12 !! But they often like to come and stay the weekend and in the holidays, which is fun.
