Sacillia Lovell is just living at 109 Finborough Road with Eliza and Violet and now found on other London Electroral Registers in the Chelsea and Kensington areas as Cecilia Lovell - but no sensible census for her in 1891 or 1901 - just wondered who she was, her occupation if theatrical, if...

I wonder if Ruth knew Jessie from being in Barnum's Circus together? Ruth and her family lived in the Olympia part of London at the time when Barnum's circus came to their town. http://circusnews.com/?p=1115

Good evening Geoff This is the reply from Forest Lawn where Edward Warren Congdon is buried along with his parents and sisters. 'In regards to your earlier question regarding the cremation, Ruth was cremated here at Forest Lawn, Glendale. However, it was the mortuary Abbott & Hast, Los...

I'll get onto the social security details and see what can be discovered - thank you! Ruth using Jezard isn't troubling me, especially with you finding Ruth's mother's maiden name Pope when Ruth died - the cemetery has confirmed that Ruth's M was May - so she was called Ruth May Jezard Congdon...
