First, I realize I said that you said her father was born in Ohio, but upon reading it again, I see that you said that she was born
in Ohio.

I am sending you anything that looks like it could be her from Kentucky or Ohio. If you will tell me when she died and how old she
was when she died, it will be much easier to help you. It is nearly impossible to help without knowing what time period you are
searching.

Did she ever marry? If she didn't marry, did she live with a man? Do you know his name? If she is your grandmother, she must have
had at least one child. What is that child's name? That child's father's name? You will find that more people will be willing to
help if you can provide information to direct their search. There are a few like me, who will try to pull the information from you
as best they can and try to help, but most will simply delete an email that doesn't ask for specific information for a specific
time.

Also, what race is she? These two are black. Things that may seem insignificant to you could mean the difference between getting
information that could help you. I hope you understand why I keep trying to help you see how important it is to give the simplest
details in order for us to help you better.

Just what is it that you would like to know about her? If you say 'everything' that is a really broad search and probably too much
for any one person to do while they are doing other lookups and their own research too. Try to figure out just what information you
are looking for. When did it happen? Where did it happen? For instance, I would like to find the parents of my grandmother. She
was born about 1850 in Ohio, according to her death certificate. It also says her father is John Lowry, but her mother is unknown.
The family moved to Kentucky between 1860 and 1900 when brother Lowry died on this date in this city/county of Kentucky at age....
Other brothers and sisters are so and so born about 1852 and so and so too born about 1855. So and so also, born ?. Of course, you
would replace the so and so with real names.

She had a child Jane Doe about 1870 in Cincinnatti Ohio. She never married but lived with a man named Joe. This child is my
mother. She was married in Ky in 1895. She is still living or she died on, place.........anything that could help us know we have
the right person.

Hope the information below helps:

If she is yours I can email the images to you.
