Hello All In the Birkenhead area I have a family called MILES. Details are: Edward MILES b.c.1826 Yarm YKS m. Harriet VAUGHAN in 1849 Liverpool. They had children: William H Charles E John H. Annie Matilda All born Liverpool. They must have moved to Birkenhead as Harriet died there in 1869 and Edward married her sister Elizabeth VAUGHAN at St. Catherine's, Tranmere in 1873. In 1881 they were all living at 3, Clifton Crescent, Birkenhead. Edward was a printer compositor. Does anyone know of this family. Family stories say that Elizabeth died in a fire in Birkenhead, but I don't have any information on this. Regards Dorothy

Hello, Does anyone have any idea where I could find information about a marriage that took place in Birkenhead in the December quarter of 1878 between Owen Jones & Margaret Durning ? What I need are the names of their parents ., and anything else you think would help in tracking them down.. Thank you in advance. Have a great day., and hope to hear back. Regards Margie bmpage@sympatico.ca

Hi All Received this from the Census Help line, it looks like it will be a well over a month until it will be back online...:0(( -----Original Message----- From: support@censushelpdesk.co.uk [mailto:support@censushelpdesk.co.uk] Sent: 12 March 2002 15:59 To: pink@drob.fsnet.co.uk Subject: Census Helpdesk ref:EMAIL69886 Dear Denise, Thank you for contacting the 1901 Census Helpdesk. Unfortunately there isn't an exact date as to when the census will be going back online. However, we are aiming to give access to designated service centres such as local libraries and record offices within the next few weeks. Once this is established, the lines will be gradually opened to the rest of the world. There have been changes implemented to the site and it's the testing of these changes that is taking up so much time. We are very sorry for the delay and any inconvenience it may have caused.

Hello all, My research has brought me to this list. Willie BEAUMONT lived in Ashton under Lyne in 1906 where he is named as a Solicitor's Clerk on my grandmother's birth cert. Mother Lizzie Maria BEAUMONT (formerly LAMBERT) By 1908 their 2nd child Doreen Muriel was born. At this time they were living at 10 Lathom Avenue, Liscard. William is still a Solicitor's Clerk at this time. In 1912 their 3rd child Beryl was born. They now lived at 52 Canterbury Road, Wallasey. William is now an Estate Agent. Their 4th child was also born at the same address in 1915. My question to the list is does anyone have access to Directories which may list William? It may well be that he worked for someone else. I know that by the end of the decade he was running a business in London. What school(s) are the children likely to have attended? Thanks very much in advance for your assitance.

Hi all, just to back up what Wendy said,my daughter born in 1977 was also registered in hospital,with my late husband in attendance.I always remember his reaction when asked if he was the father,OF COURSE I'M THE FATHER,he indignantly replied.We were then given a short birth certificate with my daughters name and date of birth.I have these short certificates for both my children and have never bothered to get full ones. annabelle.

hi all, My daughter was registered in Mill Lane Hospital, Wallasey in 1976. The registrar or one of his staff came to visit and we registered the baby there and then. They will have been dealt with in the usual manner as I have since found her on the GRO Index's duly registered Wendy

Good morning. Would some very kind person please take a look at the 1871 census for Birkenhead for a RICHARD DAVEY living at 19 Watson Street, Birkenhead........ who was living there with him....... I'm hoping you'll find a young girl named Sarah, about age 12 or 13 (my grandmother) and her siblings, plus his wife who's name I don't know. Thank you very much. Bryan....... in Colorado Springs, Colorado, US.

hELLO All listers - Further to my previous message which was sent to me by Dick Boucher and his further comments follow: QUOTE I have no objection to your passing on the information I sent you except that be advised it is my rough paraphrasing of an article published in vol.19, number 2, issue 56, p.80 - 82 in the "American-Canadian Genealogist" entitled "A Genetic Approach to Franco-American Genealogical Reasearch" by Thomas H. Roderick, Ph.D., Center for Human Genetics, Municipal Building, PO Box 770, Bar Harbor, Maine 04609-0770 When I contacted Dr. Roderick about joining the program almost nine years ago I was told to go to university at Berkeley to have Dr. Mary-Claire King's staff at her laboratory there take a sample of my blood for their data base. Subsequent to this Dr. King left Berkeley for a position at university of Washington, in Seattle, and I have heard nothing more from either her or Dr. Roderick. I assumed the project was in limbo, especially after reading through the elaborate position paper given me by Dr. King's staff in Berkeley on Dr. King's on-going research on those missing children in Argentina. I do not pretend to be an expert in biology. As a history major I just try to simplify what I have read in order to regurgitate it in such a way that whoever reads it will hopefully at least understand the basic concept of what I'm saying. Like you, I found the mtDNA genealogical research concept to be an exciting one. If you choose to disseminate what I've written you be my guest, but please add the names of the authors of the information. I hate plagiarism.à la prochaine, J.-Richard-Laurent Boucher dans la banlieue de San Francisco UNQUOTE A further comment from a friend named David follows: Sorry for its length QUOTEThis is a précis of what it says in the recent book on the subject and I attach a copy of what I typed up from the book for your interest. You may realise that to be a Jew, one's MOTHER has to be a Jew - not necessarily one's father, and this is why the genealogical line of Mary is given at the beginning of one of the Gospels (can't just recall which one - Bible not handy) which is given to prove the lineage of Jesus back to the stem of Jesse. The Seven Daughters of Eve By Professor Bryan Sykes A leading world authority on DNA and human evolution. Published by Bantam Press Ursula – born in the Great Ice Age, 45,000 years ago, in a shallow cave cut into cliffs at the foot of what is now Mount Parnassus, close to what was to become the ancient Greek classical site of Delphi. Her clan were the first modern humans successfully to colonize Europe. Within a comparatively short space of time they had spread across the whole continent, edging the Neanderthals into extinction. Today about 11% of modern Europeans are the direct maternal descendants of Ursula. They come from all parts of Europe, but the clan is particularly well represented in western Britain and Scandinavia. Cheddar Man is perhaps the most celebrated of its former members. Xenia – Twenty thousand years had elapsed since Ursula’s death. It was now twenty-five thousand years before the present and the world was even colder. The Neanderthals were gone, and modern humans had Europe to themselves. The great plains which stretched from lowland Britain in the west to Kazakhstan in the east were bare of trees save for a few patches of birch and willow scrub on their Southern margins. Today about 1% of native Americans are the direct maternal descendants of Xenia. Within Europe, three branches fan out over the continent. One is still largely confined to eastern Europe, while the other two have spread further to the west into central Europe and as far as France and Britain. Helena – Helena lived twenty thousand years ago at a time when the last Ice Age was at its most severe. Glaciers and permanent ice fields covered all of Scandinavia and stretched as far south as the present-day cities of Berlin and Warsaw. The Baltic Sea was permanently frozen, as was the North Sea from Denmark to the Humber. Britain, still joined to continental Europe by dry land, was buried under ice down to what are now the English midlands, central Wales and southern Ireland. Over successive generations the clan that began with Helena became easily the most successful in Europe, reaching every part of the continent. The reference sequence with which all mitochondrial mutations are compared is Helena’s sequence. 47% of modern Europeans are members of her clan. We do not know whether this remarkable success is because her mitochondrial DNA possesses some special quality that gives its holders a biological advantage, or whether it is just chance that makes so many Europeans trace their direct maternal ancestry back to Helena and the freezing winters of the last Ice Age. Velda - Three thousand years after Helena lived and died, the Great Ice Age had tightened its grip still further. Seventeen thousand years ago the plains of northern Europe were completely deserted; all life, animal and human, was compressed into the Ukraine, southern France, Italy and the Iberian peninsula. Velda, the fourth of the seven daughters, lived in northern Spain in the mountains of Cantabria, a few miles behind what is now the port of Santander (Spain). Today, about 5% of native Europeans belong to the clan of Velda; they are more frequent in western Europe than in the east. Many of Velda’s children have travelled a long way from Velda’s home in the hills of Cantabria. A small group found there was as far north as it is possible to travel, reaching the very top of Scandinavia, where they are to be found among present-day Saami of Finland and northern Norway. Tara – Velda and Tara both lived at roughly the same time, seventeen thousand years ago, in the depths of the last Ice Age. They may even have been exact contemporaries; but they certainly never met and their lives were very different. Velda lived in Spain, while Tara’s homeland was the hills of Tuscany in north-west Italy. Today, just over 9% of native Europeans are in the clan of Tara, living along the Mediterranean and the western edge of Europe, though they are not restricted to these regions. They are particularly numerous in the west of Britain and in Ireland. Katrine - Venice is slowly sinking into the sea. Fifteen thousand years ago, when Katrine lived there, the sea was over a hundred miles away. The Adriatic is a very shallow sea, and the worldwide lowering of sea level towards the end of the last Ice Age shrunk it to half its present size. Katrine could have walked in a straight line from split in Croatia to Ancona in Italy without getting her feet wet. She lived in the vast wooded plain that stretched from here to the Alps and took in the wide Po valley from Bologna to Milan and Turin. Katrine’s clan flourished in northern Italy and beyond. Ten thousand years after she lived, one of her many descendants died crossing the Alps. We know him as the Iceman. Today 6% of native Europeans are in the clan of Katrine. As a clan it is still frequent around the Mediterranean but, like the others, draws its present-day members from all over Europe. Jasmine – Compared to the hardships and uncertainties of the lives of the first six women we have encountered, Jasmine had a much easier time. For one thing, she lived in a permanent settlement, one of the first villages. But the accommodation could not be called luxurious. The village had a population of about three hundred people, very much larger than any of the temporary hunting camps which were home to the other six women. The village was about a mile from the River Euphrates in what is now Syria. The Euphrates carried the rain and melted snow from the mountains of Anatolia in the north through wide grassy plains to join the River Tigris on its journey to the Persian Gulf. Today, just under 17% of native Europeans that we have sampled are in the clan of Jasmine. Unlike the other six clans, the descendents of Jasmine are not found evenly distributed throughout Europe. One distinctive branch follows the Mediterranean coast to Spain and Portugal, whence it has found its way to the west of Britain, where it is particularly common in Cornwall, Wales and the west of Scotland. The other branch shadows the route through central Europe taken by the farmers who first cultivated the fertile river valleys and then the plains of northern ‘Europe. Both branches live, even now, close to the routes mapped out by their farming ancestors as they made their way gradually into Europe from the Near East UNQUOTE

Hello Dorothy, I was born in Hoylake in 1942 and now live in Australia. I have been tracing many of the Hoylake families, ROBERTS is one of the well established families of The Wirral. I have Peter ROBERTS married to Mary THOMPSON 1825c (no actual record) with the children you have listed. Mary Anne ROBERTS married George VAUGHAN in Liverpool in 1861. They had 2 children as far as I can tell, Ann b 1866 and Mary Elizabeth b 1870. Are you descended from either of these two ladies? Would you mind passing on your decendency line so I can make a connection to you? Kind Regards, Anne.
