A Sneeze to Please!
by Rick Faulkner
My e-mail address is rickfalk@island.net
and I live in Chemainus, British Columbia, Canada.
Last spring, at the LDS Family History Center, I
wanted to
look up my G-G-Grandfather, Isaac Faulkner, in the 1881
indexed Census records for Birmingham, U.K.
I couldn't
find the family at all, Not even at their old 1871 Census
address. I had bad feelings as to what happened to them.
Three months later I decided to try again, and as I was looking at
the fiche, I sneezed, my finger jerking the fiche plate.
When I looked up at the fiche, there was the family, not under
Faulkner, but way down under Faulkener's.
Serendipity?
Or what?
