Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 0 Send Message	I am trying to help a friend research her ancestors but we've hit a brick wall! We are looking for MARY BREEN who was born in Ireland and who married William Henry Thompson in 1925. We have lots of information on William (his family and siblings) but Mary is proving elusive. We can't find her anywhere. We have no idea if she had siblings or who her parents where. Can anyone help?? Many thanks in anticipation. Kay

My friend's mother died a few years ago and she was an only child - her mother having died when she was four years old, so details are sketchy and by word of mouth only.
