UPDATED – Bassingham info (Thank you to my detectives @Eyebee and @KatKimJac)
A “Relative” responded to one of my message board queries, regarding my “Grandpa,” that raised me, Donald Chance Willis.
Armed with a little more information, about his mother, “Amelia Louise Chance Willis,” I set out to see if I could find some Google Juice.
I happened upon an IGI on familysearch.org:
I considered this.. and then went to search on GenealogyArchives.com..
I found a census record, that might be Amelia.. I don’t have enough experience to “guess-read” the places, though, and I need the page before it. I used credits to read it, and it didn’t seem to have an option to go the page before.
Anyone out there who can help me read this location? I see Stafford??
Update: Lincolnshire Kestevin
Bassingham
Newark
After all of this unknown name.. it dawned on me.. Amelia would not have been listed, as a daughter, with the Willis surname. This can’t be her. *sigh*
