Does anyone have an Ancestry Worldwide sub?
Ancestry has sent me hints about various people, most of who are not of interest to me but the latest batch included something I hadn't seen before. The records refer to 3 people in the US Border Crossings from Canada 1895 -1960. Two of them, Alice Mary Margaret Rennie b1917 and her brother Thomas b1904 were born in Canada, but the 3rd Louisa Fleming Clarke 1887-1976 was born in England. The Rennies are her aunt's (who emigrated to Canada) grandchildren. I certainly wasn't aware that she had been to Canada or America and would love to know the details, if someone could have a look for me please?

Can you give me exactly how Ancestry described them, please, Lynn?

I can't see anything either. She seems to have been born in London, died in Suffolk. Is that her?
However, it looks as if Ancestry is playing up again as I can see nothing for the Rennies either.

I couldn't find a dataset on Ancestry with anything like that title. I did find this on Family Search:
United States Border Crossings from Canada to United States, 1895-1956 (so, similar dates) but none of those people seemed to be on it! (of course FS only seems to give results that have no similarity to what I asked for, so maybe they are there somewhere!)

How did you get that to come up? If I use the card catalogue to try and find it I get no matches (searching Border Crossings). I made sure I had the UK records box unticked. If I put my search term in the keywords instead of the title I get over 180 matches. I guess I missed it when I looked through those?

I just untick the UK box and type Border Crossings in the Title box.

For me, just 'Border Crossings from Canada' in the title box brought up these two:
Canada, Border Crossings from U.S. to Canada, 1908-1935 U.S., Border Crossings from Canada to U.S., 1895-1960

This is the link for Louisa https://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bi...MzcwNy4wLjAuMA.. This seems to be the link for Thomas, who later returned to England. https://emea01.safelinks.protection....%3D&reserved=0 This is for Alice. I am not sure that the ones for Louisa and Alice are the right people
