Last Tuesday I received a message from Mariah informing me they had found some documents and she was wondering if I was interested. I replied with my address and like magic I received some very exciting mail today and I have jumped right on to share it with you. So, without further delay I give you a passport and two baptism certificates.
This isn't the original-original baptism record but it is a certified copy of her baptism record which at the time also served as a birth certificate. It would also be used to help gain membership to a parish wherever they ended up.
The documents came with both transcribed copies and full on translations if anybody is interested I can share those as well. Thank you so much Mariah!
