I have quite a few old photos (extras that my mother gave me) and this seems a good way of reusing them as background for postcards.

COPIES OF FAMILY CERTIFICATES
I have started reorganising my husband's family research files, and have come across a couple of certiticates that I had ordered a few years ago, but they do not relate to the particular families that I am researching.
Once again, I am prepared to forward the copies to whoever may be researching these people - the certificates are:
Copy of Marriage Certificate for Frank BOSWORTH and Leonora Elizabeth TEE
marriage 23 August 1887 in the Parish of Coltenbroke NORTHAMPTON.
Frank's father's name - David BOSWORTH - Occupation Shepherd
Leonora's father's name - George TEE - Occupation Shepherd
Copy of Birth Certificate for Arthur BOSWORTH
Son of Frank BOSWORTH and Leonora BOSWORTH, formerly TEE.
Date of birth 17 Sep 1892 at Harborough in the Counties of Leicester & Northampton
My email address is mta91423@bigpond.net.au should you wish to contact me direct.

FOLEY FAMILY IN BRISTOL ENGLAND
Every family research can relate to "brick walls" - I have plenty of them in my own family trees.
My step daughter is trying to find out background information on Daniel Leslie FOLEY and Florence Beatrice HOWARD.
Daniel was born in 1914 Bristol - parents Daniel FOLEY and Clara MORGAN.
He had a brother, John A K Foley - born 1922 Bristol and a sister Beryl, born 1928 and died in 1937.
Daniel and Florence had a child called Sheila, who was born 1939 in Bristol, and it would appear that Daniel and Florence divorced after a few years, as I have found on the indexes a marriage for Daniel L Foley to a ? BOWMAN 1946 Bristol.
Is anyone out there researching the background of either Daniel FOLEY or more importantly Florence Beatrice HOWARD.
