    I found 142 listings for James Edwards b 1902-1906. What area(s) are we looking in ?

    When and where did Olive marry. Where was James born?

    Hi Vincent

    Do you think maybe that Olive could have been born 1932 instead of 31?

    I will PM you the details in case persons are still living.
