Yes I used the phone book and called and wrote a letter too. No response. No response from any of the six kids. It could be that the woman I'm looking for, Cecil Nicholls first wife Ellen Meek was not the mother of all of them. There may have been some young ones and she died young. Or they were divorced and all the kids belong to the second wife. This is where I could use dates of birth if they were available. It's a process....thanks for the good advice.
