I see Irene Amy Miller Coberly's obit on Ancestry.   Lots of names of relatives - but nothing about a possible first husband with the last name Thomas.

The Lighter Side / Re: Can this man find a link to any Welsh person in 60 seconds?

I have watched my Dad's cousin do this.    She is very good at it!!    Certainly a "Welsh thing"!   She may take more than 60 seconds - but she will usually get there :).   It is really fascinating to listen to her "zero in".....

My Dad has been in Canada for several years...it is quite surprising how often he can find a mutual  connection with other Welsh people we encounter on this side of the pond!

Maybe the Will was Probated in Scotland?   If property in Scotland was also involved??
