Hello VL. Yes I believe this is my Grandparents. However I'm not so sure this is Tillie's brother. Joseph had a son named Alfred. He had 3 sisters named Sophie(Betty), Julia(June)& Adelia(Dolly) & a step brother named Roy. Joseph's wife's name was Bessie and they later got divorced.

I'm becoming overwhelmed trying to look for 2 families at once and I haven't even begun by other grandparents from Spain. Luckily I have more info about them.
How do I get back on track. I've got great samples now that Val provided link for me as I'm about to write to a praish priest. shall I write to a few area in Italy and if so where else. Also should I separate my grandmother since she is from Lithuania and start a separate thread.
