British Censuses: Advice for Americans By Nathan W. Murphy, AG Just as in the United States, British censuses provide priceless information concerning ancestral families. However, when American genealogists accustomed to using U.S. censuses decide to venture into the British realm, they need to learn a few tricks. British censuses were taken every 10 years, but not in the same years as in the United States. They provide more detailed birthplaces, the government releases census data 100 years after its creation, and until two years ago, accessing specific families has been complex. The British government began collecting population censuses in 1801. They continued the practice every 10 years, but the records for most areas do not name individuals until the year 1841. For England, Wales, and Scotland, that is the year for which the first genealogically valuable census exists. Most for Ireland no longer exist — unfortunately, the first all-encompassing census for the Emerald Isle was taken in 1901. For England, Wales, and Scotland, the censuses between 1851 and 1901 basically contain the same information. Researchers find house addresses, names of all individuals in the household, ages, relationships, gender, marital status, occupations and specific birthplaces (towns or parishes and counties). The 1841 census varies in that it is not as detailed as later censuses: relationships to the head of household, accurate ages, and specific birthplaces. The government instructed census takers to round ages of all individuals over 15 down to the nearest five-year interval, so a person aged 29 is listed as 25. In addition, they only asked individuals if their birth had occurred in our outside of the county of current residence, lacking the specificity of later censuses. Accessing families listed on the censuses for 1841 through 1901 follows a different procedure than used in the United States. In the U.S., genealogists are accustomed to having head of household name indexes beginning in 1790. Until recently, the British have not endeavored to produce census indexes that cover the entire population. Organizations have completely indexed the 1881, 1891 and 1901 Censuses, each released within the last few years. Many cities and some counties have complete name indexes and Ancestry.com is currently indexing the 1871 British Census, which will soon be available in its entirety online. The Family History Library in Salt Lake City has microfilm copies of all British censuses from 1841 through 1891, but it does not have the 1901 census, which is available at The National Archives, outside of London. Breakdown of current methods to access British Censuses1: 1841 — microfilm 1851 — microfilm 1861 — microfilm 1871 — microfilm and www.ancestry.com (subscription) 1881 — www.familysearch.org (free) 1891 — www.ancestry.com (subscription) 1901 — microfilm and www.census.pro.gov.uk (England and Wales online — pay per view) Strategies for finding ancestors in pre-1871 censuses include using name indexes and street indexes. Genealogists have indexed most of the 1851 census; however, many indexes cover only single parishes. Since England and Wales comprised more than 11,000 parishes, these indexes are not altogether useful when searching on a county or nationwide level. The 1841 and 1861 censuses have received less attention from indexers and in order to find ancestors, an address must be known. Civil registration, parish registers and directories provide addresses. Always search for an address that matches existing census years. After identifying this information, use street indexes to locate families. Street indexes are available at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. To find them on the catalog, follow this path: Great Britain>Census [Year] Indexes>Street Index. This process becomes more tedious if ancestors migrated, necessitating usage of currently non-existent nationwide indexes. Lastly, locate the actual microfilm copies of census records on the Family History Library Catalog by searching for towns or parishes and then referring to the “Census” category. Census records provide glimpses into our ancestors’ lives and homes. Thorough research requires checking all available censuses. They lead to many other valuable records and if Americans mind the differences, they can learn the British system. Endnotes: 1. This list does not account for commercial digitized censuses available on CD-ROM and other media that exists for various locations and time periods. Family historians may also access all censuses on microfilm. Nathan W. Murphy is an Accredited Genealogist in three geographic areas: England, Mid-south, and Gulf-south United States.

Have you thought about looking for information and pictures on Ebay? Under genealogy there are over 3000 entries today. There are 1890 census records for counties in OH. You can search under your name but if it is common you might get a lot of items. You can also look for items from counties that you are researching and for pictures. It is amazing what you might find there. Bette

If you have found that you have Quaker ancestors, you are fortunate. They were very committed to their record keeping. Records of many Monthly Meetings, Quarterly Meetings and Yearly Meetings have been abstracted over the years by many noted genealogists and historians. Your first Quaker reference books should always be the "Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy" by William Wade Hinshaw or Willard Heiss's Abstracts from the Records of the Society of Friends in Indiana. These volumes are available at most Genealogy libraries and LDS Family History Centers. There are several volumes and they have recently been reprinted and made available through various Genealogical book vendors. Quaker records are sometimes difficult to interpret unless you are familiar with some frequently used abbreviations, such as: altm = at liberty to marry apd = attending places of diversion apd = appointed, appealed apt = appointed att = attached to, attended For more info, check: http://home.att.net/~Pendroy/qkrterms.html Sally Rolls Pavia Sun City, AZ sallypavia2001@yahoo.com "To live in the hearts we leave behind, is never to have died."

Hi all: I've just spent about an hour removing a nasty Virus (Trojan) from a PC here at work. Nothing special about that, but getting rid of this particular 'bug' required me to take the system disk out of the PC! I had to install the disk in another PC as a second drive (not as the system disk) to delete the files that were the source of the infection. That might be very difficult for a home user. So just a quick word of caution to everyone on the list. If you have an antivirus product installed on your PC, keep the virus definition files current. If you don't have an antivirus product, please get one, install it, and keep the virus definition files current. Note Bene: The particular virus (Backdoor.Mutny) affects nearly all flavors of Microsoft Operating Systems ... o Windows XP o Windows 2000 o Windows NT o Windows Me o Windows 98 o Windows 95 If you want more information on this particular threat, see the following web page: http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/backdoor.mutny.html Best regards H.A. Kippenhan, Jr.

Cemetery Ironwork This page provides information on the different styles of cemetery fences, as well as information on some of the major cemetery fence manufacturers. The page provides simple guidance on the preservation of cemetery ironwork. Want to learn more?? Check out the following site: http://chicora.org/cemetery_fences.htm Understanding Iron The two most common metals in American cemeteries are wrought iron and cast iron. Understanding the differences will help you better care for these materials. Wrought iron (sometimes called puddled or charcoal iron) is the traditional material of the blacksmith. It is a mixture of nearly pure iron (less than 1% carbon) with up to 5% (but averaging about 2.5%) siliceous (glassy) slags that take the form of linear fibers. It resists corrosion, is not brittle, and seldom breaks. It's soft, relatively malleable and easily worked. As a result it is often found as delicate artwork. Cast iron has a high carbon content (usually around 3%) that is easily poured into molds -- resulting in its use to replicate fence details. It is hard and brittle, and hence unsuitable for shaping by hammering, rolling, or pressing. When fractured, cast iron often has a gray, grainy appearance. There are other metals found in American cemeteries, such as mild steel (cheaper than wrought, but exhibiting far less resistance to corrosion and unsuitable for repair work) and zinc (sometimes mistakenly called white bronze). Retention of Original Elements Every effort should be made to retain all existing ironwork at historic cemeteries, regardless of condition. Replacement with new materials is not only aesthetically inappropriate, but often causes galvanic reactions between dissimilar metals. When existing ironwork is incomplete, a reasonable preservation solution to repair and maintain the remaining work rather than add historically inappropriate and incorrect substitutes. If replacement is desired, salvage of matching elements is preferred over recasting. Replication is typically not an appropriate choice since it is by far the most expensive course of action, and is often done very poorly.

As you may know, I have several mailing addresses, with most of my mail going to the main account for my personal web site domain (ddetling@greencity.org). Because I am now getting several hundred messages a day of so-called "spam" or junk e-mail, including abuse of the domain name (there are only two accounts at greencity.org--mine and my wife's), I am taking some steps to reduce my own junk mail, as well as causing spammers some trouble. These steps will be taken over the next several weeks to give adequate notice to those who send me legitimate e-mail. So please take note of the following Effective today, my main e-mail address will be: doug.detling@greencity.org Please change your address books to delete ddetling@greencity.org and substitute the one using my first and last name. Mail addressed with the old address will still be delivered and read, but more slowly as I actively try to change over and then get rid of that address. If you get e-mail from any sender at "greencity.org" other than from us (whether it is ddetling, doug.detling, or manuela), it is not a legitimate sender and the message should be deleted. Spammers hijak domain names to use, and ours is no exception--I get 20 bounced or undeliverable message a day from mail servers alleging that messages sent by other folks using the greencity domain cannot be delivered. Well, they weren't send from us, so I didn't really care--except when I figured out how much traffic is being used, and I have to pay for the temporary storage of the "bounced" messages. My secondary e-mail address at charter.net (my local ISP) will remain active. That address is used to administer the various Rootsweb mailing list I coordinate.

Found in the 1880 census in Simpson Twp, Johnson Co., MO William Bunker age 33, b. NC, parents b.NC; Eliza A. age 24, b. NC, parents b.NC; Jacob E. age 6 b. MO; James O. age 2 b. MO; Bertie W. (son, male)age 2/12, b. MO. A few houses down is Isaac F. Bunker who has Williams in his family but this one does not fit and none of them were born in NC. Descendants of the twins, Eng and Chang were in this area at the time too and would have come from NC but do not seem to have a William of the right age. Does anybody recognize this William? Bette

Since you are in my address book, you may find it in yours too. The virus (called jdbg.exe or jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee AntiVirus. It sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the system. It is sent automatically by MESSENGER and ADDRESS BOOK whether or not you've sent email to your contacts. Basically, that means that you will pass it along unknowingly, as I did. I was sent this email and am now passing it on to you so that you can check for the virus and get rid of it. The process is simple and will take only a minute to complete. 1. Go to START, then click FIND or SEARCH option. 2. In the FOLDER option, type the name "jdbgmgr.exe." 3. Be sure to search your C Drive and all the sub folders, as well as any other drives you may have. 4. Click FIND NOW or SEARCH 5. The virus has a teddy bear icon with the name "jdbgmgr.exe." Don't open it. 6. Go to EDIT on the menu bar and choose SELECT ALL to highlight the file without opening it. 7. Go to FILE on the menu bar and select DELETE. This will send the virus to the RECYCLE BIN. If you find the virus, you must contact all the people in your ADDRESS BOOK so that they can eradicate the virus from their books. It will affect everyone. 1. Open a new email message. 2. Click the icon ADDRESS BOOK next to TO. 3. Highlight every name and add to BCC. 4. Copy this message and paste to email.

In the 1920 census in Ryan, Sumner Co., KS James Montgomery Bunker is listed with his family Anna L., Wiley H, Edward J., Sally W., Eng age 14 and Ray. This is the first I have seen this Eng Bunker. James Montgomery Bunker is a descendant of Eng Bunker, the twin. In 1930 in Ryan, Sumner Co., KS, Eng Bunker age 24, married at 21 b. KS, father b. NC, mother b. OH, farmer is listed with his wife, Wilda age 32, married at 29, b. KS, father b. IL, mother b. OH, teacher high school. The SSDI shows Eng Bunker b. 9 Dec 1905, d. Jan 1975, last residence Wellington, Sumner Co., KS. Wiley Bunker is in Conway, Sumner Co., KS in 1930, age 32, married at age 40, b. KS, father b. Siam, mother b. KS with his wife, Alice age 51, married 1st at age 20, b. MO, parents b. MO. Obviously, someone was a bit mixed up about the birthplaces of Wiley's parents. Mistakes on the census are not uncommon. Also, in the North Carolina Marriage Bonds 1741-1868 is: Eng Bunker and Sarahan Yates, bond #000164389, Wilkes Co, Record # 01 037, Bondsman Jesse Yeats. (the spellings are copied as they were on the record, no date for the marriage is listed). Margaret: This information is not in Jessie's book. Feel free to use it and anything else I send you in your newsletter if you like. Sort of exciting to find another Eng. Bette
