Bren, Whats the chances

I think i have found her, Mother of Clara Ameila

Clara Sophia Pearshouse,
born 1877 Bham. Punjab, India, and her mother and father could be

John Thomas Pearshouse,
b 1837 B New Jersey and died March 1985 Bham, Punjab, India,

Mother Alice Hart, b 1847 Bham, Punjab, India d Nov 1901 bham, Punjab, India

there is also a George an Clara had a brother George, but i can't see them being related if they were born in Punjab, India, what do you think the chances are, daft question i know but what do you think,
my husband thinks the chances could be good as with the war and all, but i don't know,

Can anyone throw any light as to how if they are the parents they came from there

Thanks

Miss-Matches

Hi Buttercup,, :) best go with Bren,s info on this Ok,

Some info (gained through) auto Matches,, eg on Ancestry just
Pop up these "other places" as matches for your family.
eg I constantly get Aston, Burlington , Ontario & B,ham New Jersey ??
Now i know for absolute sure my Young,s/Howell,s of that 1880-1901
period never moved,,but these "auto matchers" keep offering.
Ok Gal,, just thought worth a mention,
Cheers John Y :cool:
 
Thanks for that

Thanks John, i find that all these hints come up, some are right but some are also wrong, thanks, always happy for a bit of help.

Bren, that is them, Laura was my ??? not sure what she was, she married a Beddows, she was blind, i have heard of a Sidney and a George, i thought they were her brothers, william i am not sure about, but will keep it in my shoe box, just incase, that Pearshouse, every search i put in i came up with that India one, i wonder why you have not, maybe i was doing something wrong, i will make a note of everything you have wrote down, can you copy and paste off here, save me writing it all down, will have a try,
Thanks again Bren
 
I've had exactly this same problem with Ancestry, ie, telling me that Birmingham is in Punjab India. I would bet good money that there isn't a Birmingham in the Punjab, but there are a lot of Punjabi folk in Birmingham. :)
