Hi Rootschatters. I am trying to find the wife of John Purvis b abt 1876 in County Durham. He married one of the daughters of Henry C Palmer of Esh Winning, Durham ie Sarah b1876,Louisa b1877 or Lilley b 1878. There is another daughter Elizabeth M but I know it isn't her. It sounds simple dosn't it? But it has me beat! Any clues appreciated . Desperate Geoff  ???
