Donna you do not want to delete any of the threads now as there is info on all of them. What I think you need to do is contact support and ask them to merge the threads.

I will paste this post onto each of them

Donna - I would like to help but quite honestly I do not know where to start at the moment - I can see that you have got yourself into a bit of a mess with this but can also see that it was not intentional!

Do as LK says and contact support to see if they can help.

If not, then we need to try to take all the relevant info from the threads, add it to one, and then mark the other two so that no further posts get added.

Once we have all the info together, we can then move forward and try to help you.

Don't panic and don't give up !! - see what the support team says.

pm from Donna (I've advised about replying on here and also about the My Threads link).

"just found my messages, i think he was born 1891 pretty sure of that, he was married to kate sweeney and he did abonden her, both mary and dominic stated that they were cousions and yes you are right mary went first and dominic followed later, i have the marriage certificate that states his origion italy and father the same, i have had info before about leeds and i will do some more work on that just to be on safe side, i really do appreciate all the work you do i cannot believe that there are people like you out there that help like you do, i am trying my best to do reasearch and i love it, but with ......... to look after i find it difficult"

Donna, as I said in my message to you, don't be put off when we throw questions at you!

What I'm puzzled about is how you're pretty sure that Dominic was born in 1891?

All the census info, and possible birth records, show him as born circa 1883. Do you have some additional info?

What is his age on his marriage certificate?

Donna

Donna Report 27 Jul 2012 19:25

thank you marieceleste for that

my couison told me this info on dob but wen i did it it was 1883 i just thought i had got it wrong,
i have not found my certificate for him yet but as soon as i do i will add all info on here
kind regards

I wonder if Panta Lee is Pantelleria? I cannot find the other places mentioned in Italy.
There are several possibles for Dominic in Canada/USA but our guy seems to change his place of birth,

I think you need some certificates to prove this. There is a Dominic who marries an Anne in Birmingham but his age is out so probably not yours.
