Hi Cheri, Sometime back JR, and I shared a circumstance where the Grandparents were incognito. Since the person was not someone critical to my research, I didn't think much about it - however, in this second instance, I thought it might be worthy of mention. You correctly pointed out that I wasn't drawing a conclusion on the reason for anonymity, but, merely making an observation. Living in these more liberal times, we sometimes forget how restrictive the rules were for many of our ancestors.
