My father Lindley Talbot was in R E M E at this time. I have
a small Christmas card sent to me from France 1944. The front
shows Mercury balanced on a globe. A banner underneath read 13
LofC SIGNALS. Our family tree is being researched and we want as
much information as possible on my fathers war service. He came
home safe and sound.

The site is really time consuming and hard to look through
for information.
I am trying to search all possible links and I am hitting a
lot of dead ends. I realize this is in part because I have
limited information to start with.
Researching:
I am looking for William Ward. Born about 1850 in England. He
emigrated to the United States around 1885. He married Mary
Morgan around 1883. Mary was born in Wales. They had 2 children
while in England. Laura born in July 1883 and Arthur born in
April 1885. I have no names for parents or other information of
William or Mary. Information I have is from family ancestors and
US Census.
Family gossip has it that he was married before in England
and may have left a family there. Any help in finding
information about William and Mary would be greatly appreciated.

I am just now trying to trace my family line.
I live in an East Texas town named Marshall but my family
came from Titus County Texas near present day Mount Pleasant.
What I am trying to find out is when my ancestors first came
to America. I am also interested in finding and communicating
with my ancestors in the UK or anywhere else they may be.
By vocation I am a school teacher. I teach middle school
history so I am extremely interested in researching my own
history.
