Edith came to California from Canada. The records can show the crossing.
This entry is the end of the story. The older records hold the rest: a ship list or border crossing, a naturalization, the census pages that recorded where Edith was born. With both parents' surnames here (Scott and Thornton), we can usually reach the generation before too. We search them one name at a time and send you what we find, read in plain English, with every fact cited to its record and where to look next.
