I'm trying to find out who someone was who contacted my father's cousun in the late 1960s (none of the family stll alive that I know have the details). She was then retired & living in Florida (so would definitely be dead now). She said she had been born with the surname Asher but had been married several times. So I don't know if she was then using the surname Asher or not & whether she had been born in Florida or not.
I guess the first step would be looking for Asher births & deaths in Florida.
This is obviously a longshot, so any tips for making it any easier would be most welcome. I do know of one member of my Asher family who emigrated to Florida in 1840, but, as far as I can see (& I have the details from his grave etc), he died a single man without children....he could, of course, have had illegitimate children I don't know about who took his name:p
