If you want my advice I wouldn't bother trying to chase it back yourself. You're far better off paying someone like Cyclops or another expert to do it for you, because they will find out so much more info than you ever will.
Thanks for those kind words! Appreciated!

In truth (as you know) your family was the most convoluted and tangled I've ever researched. We had to order several certs to confirm what was suspected- and it wasn't always pleasant reading: but so interesting!

One thing that readers should know (and is obvious from this thread) is that I don't just provide names, places and dates, but I research newspapers for stories that feature their family. The stories that emerge are sometimes breathtaking. Mrs SR's ancestors would fill three WDYTYA and The Alien's, could only be shown after the watershed. I'm itching to tell more - but all research is 100% confidential.
