CassieP,

I have made over 26,500 posts on RootsChat - proving that I can be helpful :D
But I can't help if you post attachments from a subscription site?

Ancestry is not the be-all and end-all of Family History research!

You could start a fight in an empty room!  :D

Cassie ~

Have you searched for alternative spellings to  Pearce as I have affines in my tree who flip from Pearce to Pierce and back!

Hi CassieP,

I checked 35 Bournville Lane against the 1921 census and it appears Emma Amelia is still living there but is now the wife of Thomas Collins, do you already have this information?

No help with what happened to James Pearce of course but I’ll keep trying.
