Finding Pre Marriage Family
Hi: I am brand new to this site but already feel like I belong. I am a senior, female, age 81 but have been told that age is just a number. I am handicapped, having undergone a severe accident seven years ago which left me with permanent injuries. However, my mind was not disturbed and that is the main thing. The use of the computer and my interest in genealogy has been a wonderful past time. I have several family trees completed and am now digging into trying to find out more about the young life of my grandparents - Emily Fitkin and Alexander Tassie. Emily married Alexander in Toronto, Canada and produced many children, 11 I think, 8 of which died during the Diptheria Plaque, leaving my Dad, Charles Edwin Tassie and two older brothers alive. They have now since all passed on of course. Anyone who could tell me about Emily and Alexander Tassie have now gone to the great beyond and I have kicked myself ever since for not asking questions when they were alive. Emily was born I think in 1852, died in 1949 at the age of 97. Alexander was born in 1843 but have no death record of him. Emily remarried a Fred Windsor before I was born and have no death record of him either. Anyway, I am still trying to crash my way through the brick wall. All the best - Salmbj
