Welcome back to Maureen. Would List Members please note that as a result of the recent upgrades at RootsWeb, the archive service may be unavailable - RootsWeb are slowly rebuilding the archives, but its a slow process. When I hear more, I'll pass it on to the list. ****** ****** ****** Thanks to Irene for confirming that right now, the whole UK 1901 Census is only available from the PRO (by personal application as detailed last week). Exact details of its release next year can be found on the PRO site by monitoring this page :- http://www.pro.gov.uk/census/factsheet.htm ****** ****** ****** Originally on NB RootsWeb under the title "I'm not stuck, I'm ancestrally challenged" ... ENJOY! {and apologies to all who may have seen them before} Geneology Quips My family coat of arms ties at the back ... is that normal? My family tree is a few branches short! All help appreciated. My ancestors must be in a witness protection program! Shake your family tree and watch the nuts fall! My hobby is genealogy, I raise dust bunnies as pets. How can one ancestor cause so much TROUBLE?! I looked into my family tree and found out I was a sap . I'm searching for myself; Have you seen me? If only people came with pull-down menus and on-line help ... Isn't genealogy fun? The answer to one problem leads to two more! It's 2000 ... Do you know where your G-G-Grandparents are? A family reunion is an effective form of birth control. A family tree can wither if nobody tends it's roots. A new cousin a day keeps the boredom away. After 30 days unclaimed ancestors will be adopted. Am I the only person up my tree ... sure seems like it. Any family tree produces some lemons, some nuts, and a few bad apples. Ever find an ancestor HANGING from the family tree? FLOOR The place for storing your priceless genealogy records. Gene-Allergy It's a contagious disease but I love it. Genealogists are time unravelers. Genealogy is like playing hide and seek They hide ... I seek! Genealogy Tracing yourself back to better people. "Crazy" is a relative term in my family. A pack rat is hard to live with but makes a fine ancestor. I want to find ALL of them! So far I only have a few thousand. I Should have asked them BEFORE they died! I think my ancestors had several "Bad heir" days. I'm always late. My ancestors arrived on the JUNEflower. Only a Genealogist regards a step backwards, as progress. Share your knowledge, it is a way to achieve immortality. Heredity: Everyone believes in it until their children act like fools! It's an unusual family that hath neither a lady of the evening or a thief. Many a family tree needs pruning. Shh! Be very, very quiet ... I'm hunting forebears. Snobs talks if they had begotten their own ancestors! That's strange half my ancestors are WOMEN! I'm not sick, I've just got fading genes. Genealogists live in the past lane. Cousins marrying cousins Very tangled roots! Cousins marrying cousins A non-branching family tree Alright! Everybody out of the gene pool! Always willing to share my ignorance ... Documentation ...The hardest part of genealogy. Genealogy Chasing your own tale! Genealogy ... will I ever find time to mow the lawn again? That's the problem with the gene pool NO Lifeguards I researched my family tree ... and apparently I don't exist! ****** ****** ****** Feel free to join in and present your own items.
