NEW RELEASES FROM ARCHIVE CD BOOKS Barretts' Directory and Topography of Lancaster, 1886 This directory covers Lancaster, Morecambe, Carnforth, Milnthorpe, Kirkby Lonsdale, Bentham, Ingleton and adjacent villages and townships. The Robins or Robbins Family of England details the branches of the family in Jersey, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Cheshire, Cornwall, Derbyshire, Devonshire, Dorset, Essex, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Leicestershire, Middlesex, Norfolk, Oxfordshire, Shropshire, Somerset, Staffs, Suffolk, Surrey, Sussex, Warwickshire, Wiltshire, Worcestershire, and Yorkshire 1911 T. Bulmer & Co.'s History, Topography And Directory Of Furness & Cartmel Comprising its history and archaeology, physical and geological features, with separate historical and topographical descriptions of each town, parish and manor. Records of the University of St. Andrews Early Records of the University of St. Andrews, Edinburgh (Fully indexed). The Graduation Roll 1413-1579 and The Matriculation Roll 1473-1579 Kent 1861 Census Registration Districts RG 9/462-556 Register of Persons Entitled to Vote - Borough of Nottingham Unlike the normal "Poll Books", which were a record of those actually voting, these books contain the names and addresses of all persons entitled to vote in the election for a Member of Parliament. White's History, Gazetteer and Directory of Nottinghamshire, 1894 This comprehensive directory gives the names and addresses of Nottinghamshire inhabitants but also gives fascinating extra inform,ation that will enable you to build up an idea of what it was really like to live in 1894. White's Directory of Nottinghamshire 1885-6 Exhaustively covers all places in Nottinghamshire, providing great insights into not only the names and addresses of ancestors but also the conditions in which they lived through And from Canada ( I have included this as it might be of interest to you all, this is from Archive Books Canada) * Gazetteer and Business Directory, Canada 1930 Product No. CA0035 : $45.00 A wonderful book with a truly misleading original title. Of the almost 2000 pages in this book the gazetteer takes up 70 while the rest are devoted to a wonderfully complete directory of Canadian businesses and professional people and their advertising. This is a great resource in a Country where early directories are so scarce. Both the gazetteer and the Business Directory are indexed by Province but the business Directory is also sub-indexed by trade or profession. So, if you are looking for someone who was a Grocer in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan you can go straight to the alphabetized list of 71 candidates, most of who were trading under their own name rather than under a company name. In fact the vast majority of the businesses listed were named for the owner including, of course, the professional listings for Physicians, Veterinarians, Barristers, Insurance Agents, etc. Archive CD Books homepage - http://www.archivecdbooks.com WEBPAGE REVIEWS http://www.hometown.aol.co.uk/pitexplosion/index.htm?f=fs A really very interesting site about the Badderley/ Baxterley pit explosion of 1882. A real insight into the dangers faced by many of our ancestors, and the tragic consequences when it went wrong. This site has accounts of the event as well as lists of those who died, were injured, and otherwise involved. A really fascinating account. I did not like the design of the homepage, mainly for its use of frames, but as you browse deeper this seems to go. Particularly notable on the site are the citations for bravery, and the accounts of trying to rescue. Gives a really good account of the dangers of life in the mines. http://www.kirbymisperton.org.uk/ Another one place site, packed full of information this one is for Kirby Misperton in Ryedale, Yorkshire. The site contains census information, Nineteenth century directories, old (and new) pictures, and information from Tithes and from the Domesday Book. Simply laid out, quick to load and very easy to move around this is an excellent site that will be of use to many people whose ancestors came from or passed through the Ryedale area http://www.peterch.fsnet.co.uk/Pages&Frames/pg-info.htm This is a sub-site of a general genealogy page and I really thought this was a nice idea. Regular readers will know I like a site with a bit of background information, and this site is concerned with the background information. It give a basic, simple and easy to understand history of England, both political and social, with information on Kings, major historical events, employment, money, health and transport, amongst many other things. If your UK history is sketchy and you want to know more about the backgrounds to your ancestors lives then this really is an excellent site to visit. Well laid out and easy to navigate this site is well worth a visit CERTIFICATES BIRTH BURKE, Margaret, dau of Patrick & Margaret, 6 Jan 1898, Swansea, GLA BURKE, Margaret, dau of Michael and Alice, 6 May 1890, Cardiff, GLA PARKER, Florie, dau of William & Annie, 14 July 1878, Kensington, MDX MARRIAGE THOMAS, John & EVERETT Ann, 24 July 1840, Shoreditch, MDX WEBB, James William & TILLCOCK, Annie, 23 January 1881, Great Amwell, Hertford If this is of use to you in your own personal research, drop me a line At gfhn@thompson04.wanadoo.co.uk and I will put you in touch with the current holder Meanwhile, if you have a certificate you don't need that may be of use to someone else then drop me a line, and we will advertise it in an upcoming newsletter .

There is no birth cert for Florence so now presume she was adopted (Born 1901) As it is an unusual name thought it would be easy to trace but can only find one Worlow on 1881 census.I have no relatives left and my mother Florence never mentioned her family and left behind no details . Thanks mary.courtney@ntlworld.com My great uncle William Metcalfe disappeared shortly after being demobbed in 1919. He initially returned to the family home in Scarcroft (W.R. Yorks) where his mother was postmistress but disappeared without trace a couple of years later. I have no idea which regiment or even service he was in although it is likely to have been for the duration. Any ideas? Chris Gallagher newshawk@supanet.com To anyone who can help me, my brickwall is woolwich kent 1807. I am loking for the parents of David Palmer Halladay who was Born in Woolwich on the 5th march,1807 I have that date in his handwriting on his certificate of competency as a master mariner.

I am the Scotland co-ordinator and I am looking for people who would like to co-ordinate the distribution of film within a particular county and give support to volunteer transcribers. Only Angus and Fife have co-ordinators at present. We have the requisite permissions from GROS for this, and the Genealogical Society of Utah is kindly lending us the film. You will find the FreeREG site at www.freereg.rootsweb.com if you wish to read more about the project in general. If you would like to be a county co-ordinator, please get in touch with me at annef1@tiscali.co.uk .

It contains inscriptions dated from 1666 to 1995 for the four cemeteries: Castleton churchyard, Ettleton Cemetery, Saughtree Cemetery and St. Mary's Chapel, Hermitage.

Warrington LAING was born at Jedburgh, Scotland in 1852. Thanks to Bev Edmonds' transcripts, I have found a reference to him at Townsville in "The Queenslander" of April 6, 1889. [The article referred to the drowning of Mr G F Thomson.] LAING was also named in an advertisement in "The Times" of March 26, 1895, as the Townsville Manager of the North Queensland Mortgage & Investment Company. By 1901, he was back in London and described in the census as "Australian merchant". He went on to become a director of several well known UK financial institutions such as Commercial Union Assurance Company. He was married in England in 1904 at age 52. I do not know whether he had a previous marriage in Australia. Can anyone suggest where I might find more information about Warrington LAING in Townsville and also the North Queensland Mortgage & Investment Company please?

Good Morning, A research tool that I have used in the past, is to go to the electoral Rolls, to find possible links. I have now heard that the government is restricting access to these documents, because they are being used by angry ex partners to find their spouse and children. Is this true and how long have we before this happens? Rosalyn.Steele@griffith.edu.

My name is Alan PAUL, I am try to find out some details of a branch of my family who migrated to Country Queensland in 1883. See below for what I have found out so far. Henry FRYER son of John FRYER and ELLEN (nee possibly LEE) married Eliza IVES, daughter of Thomas IVES and Eliza WRIGHT on the 27th May 1882 in Trinity Chapel, Easton Street, High Wycombe Buckinghamshire, England.

Please note I have only put burial data for some of the little cemeteries only....If you need to know if anyone is buried in the larger cemeteries than you will need to contact the Mackay Family History Society who hold the burial registers and Monumental Inscriptions. They do charge a small research fee. for the new pages goto : http://www.geocities.com/ghh_mackay/cemeteries/cemeteries.html for contact details for the Mackay Family History Society goto http://www.geocities.com/ghh_mackay/district_groups/district_groups.html And of course if you are able to provide any information on any lone burials of other known burial grounds in the region please let me know...and of course any suggestions about the site would be appreciated.

There was a week longer gap than expected – Rootsweb servers seemed to be down last week and I could unsubscribe people and do the general maintenance, but here we are! Clwyd Family History Society, Your Old Books and Maps and The Dartmoor Press have all joined The Parish Chest Online Booksellers – (www.parishchest.com) NEW RELEASES FROM ARCHIVE CD BOOKS Kelly's Directory of Liverpool 1881 Contains a street and suburb directory, which lists the head of every household living in that street, as well as alphabetical lists of residents and their trades. 1881 Cornwall - St. Austell Registration District Registration District 296 RG11/2299-2305 1881 Cornwall - Truro Registration District Registration District 297 RG11/2306-2314 1881 Cornwall - Falmouth Registration District Registration District 298 RG11/2315-2320 1871 Census London St. Pancras (part 1) RG10 /199-229 1871 Census London St. Pancras (part 2) RG10 /230-250 1871 Census London Islington RG10/251-308 1871 Census London Hackney RG10/309-336 1871 Census London St.Giles RG10/337-352 1881 London Census: RD1 Sub Dist. 1A-1N - St. Mary Paddington (RG11/1-14 1881 London Census: RD1 Sub Dist. 2A-2G - St. John Paddington (RG11/15-21) Kelly's Directory of Lincolnshire 1892 A typical Kelly's directory but with the added bonus of a large (A3 size) map of the county The Sheffield Local Register A fascinating collection of snippets from the earliest local Sheffield newspapers plus important events relating to Sheffield from 200 AD. Almost 2,500 pages of local news, obituaries and death notices, crimes and court cases, anecdotes, etc. Archive CD Books homepage - http://www.archivecdbooks.com WEBPAGE REVIEWS http://www.cornishsurnames.com/ Though I rarely review sites of businesses, or those selling products I thought this one was worth a mention, not least because there is quite a bit of information that can be obtained for free. The site is a few web pages based around Cornish Surnames, and how they developed. There is a bit of information about the way Cornish Surnames were given and developed, and a little bit of information about Cornwall in general. Although I did not like the large font the site was otherwise reasonably easy to navigate and quite well laid out, and if your research gets you into Cornwall you may want to read about the background to Cornish surnames first http://www.haxby-york.co.uk/index.html If you bypass what I think is a pretty horrendous design job and readjust your eyes you will see that this website for Haxby in Yorkshire is a fantastic one place study absolutely crammed full of information. From census transcriptions to memories of ex-pats from Haxby there is no doubt a lot of information has been put together to form this site. I really enjoyed browsing through it and it contains a lot of information that make it a must for anyone with connections to the area. If only the design was clearer it would be the most superb site http://www.rowleyregis.com/ Website of Rowley Regis in Staffordshire, or the Black Country, depending on how familiar you are with that term! This is a nice website, weld designed and very pleasing on the eye. Most of the information is modern, which could give you a flavour of the place today, but there is historical information too. Not least is full information from the 1881 census, with a fantastic search mechanism (surname only though). You can either search or browse the census which comes our very nice on the site. There is also a bit of historical information, and personal reminisces. Also important is the surnames interest registry, so you can see if others are also researching your family.

If you have a spare certificate that is of no use to you at all then you can either send me the details via email, or send me the certificate. If the certificate is sent to me then it will be sent on to any enquiries. After six months if nobody has claimed the certificates as interesting to their research then they will be deposited at the SoG library. I will however keep all the details of the certificate on file and where possible pass them on to any relevant one name studies registered with the Guild of One Name Studies. We only publish certificates more than 100 years old, but pass all certificates on. The address for spare certificates to be sent to is: Rob Thompson, GFHN, 15 Honor Link, Chelmsford, CM1 6BB READERS QUERIES I'm looking for connections to LEVI COMER born in 1857 in South Kealton? Yorkshire. He married Ann born in 1856 from Tressham, Gloucester. They produced Ida Ann, my Grandmother in 1881 in Middlesbrough, Yorkshire and John Hubert in 1893. Died in WW1. They lived in Middlesbrough and Levi appeared to be a Coal Merchant. Any information or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Colin Whitfield colin@colinwh.freeserve.co.uk My g.grandfather apparently emigrated from Cornwall in the late 1800's to America. He subsequently went onto S Africa, where he lived the rest of his life. This is where my grandfather was born and he returned to the UK. My query is, how do I find my g.grandfather's passage to the USA? I found an Ellis Island entry which could be him, but there is no mention of a wife on board the ship. I believe wives were a "non-entity" in those days. Does this mean she would not be listed? It could be that they did not marry before leaving, but I have not found her under her maiden name either. Any suggestions please? I also found an "intention to naturalise" in the USA entry which looks like it might be my man. nickimerrifield@beeb.net To get a query published you must: Make it less than 200 words in length Include your name & email address for direct response from subscribers Send it to gfhn@thompson04.wanadoo.co.uk making the email title “reader query” Be a subscriber to the newsletter To Respond: Please respond directly to the reader, replies sent to me will be forward, but by nature they will be received much later All we ask in return for a free entry is that the person submitting tells us if it has been successful and gives us a brief summary of the responses – this will allow others interested to learn as well Please help out other readers when you can!
