  I just came across the old notes I talked about when I first made contact with you.
  *I sincerely apologise for giving you some wrong information.
  I previously advised you that MARY B. McMURRAY married WILLIAM B. SEARLES.
  However, the notes tell a different story in that she married PETER SEARLES..
  I hope you can make sense of it. I am really confused and ready to give up Genealogy!!!!!
  Best wishes,
  Rose (White) Rim.
