Are your family helping with this Nicole?
Do you have grandparents who might know more.?

It is better to work back from known people, then track each generation back by looking at census and buying certificates.

People will help if you give a few more clues.

Nicole - I suggest you post your query on "Trying to Find", but give as much information as you can after you have exhausted all ways you know of. There are some good helpers there but they like you to only post on ONE thread so that there is no duplication.
If you do that - return here to this thread and delete it - again, to prevent any duplication of work by helpers. To delete - click on Delete at the top of your FIRST post.
