Guest B Ciosek: I presume you're referring to my comment re my Great Aunt Edith above.

No, as far as I know, she never lived in the USA at all. But there are several Edith Priestley's in various branches of my family. "Edith" is a family name that appears again and again in various strands of Priestleys, Dowells and Naylors from that area. I've found at least 3 Edith Dowells and 3 Edith Priestleys in graveyards in West Yorkshire!
