He pleaded intoxication, at the Old Bailey ... and almost at the end of his life, was the publican of the Union Hotel, in Woolomin NSW. There is also, in the 1851 Census, a Thomas HENRY, unmarried, b. 1815, a Brewer with Hanbery & Cooper ... born *Demerer*, West Indies (Demerara?), living with his unmarried sister Eliza, b.1818 in St George, Middlesex.

Well, that's possible - certainly, there seems to be no sign of a husband :-) The owner of the house was an unmarried niece, those name has been incorrectly transcribed as Catherine DOROTHY. (It is actually Catherine DOWDING). HENRY is not all *that* common - and certainly, there is no Frederick HENRY born at around the right time in Family Search, or Findmypast. (His age is given as 20, on his Old Bailey record (in 1830), and from that and his Australian records, I calculate his birth to be around September, 1809). Whatever the answer is, it has eluded me for a very long time ... so all contributions are welcome :-) Cheers, Lesley (In soggy Nundle, Australia)

Hi Listers, For many years now, I have been looking for my 2g-grandfather Frederick HENRY ... who was born c1809, according to his Australian (NSW) Death certificate, in London. Parents, according to the same Death Certificate, were Thomas HENRY and Elizabeth JONES. Frederick was convicted at the Old Bailey in London in 1830, for stealing a handkerchief value 3s, and was transported to NSW, where he spent the rest of his life. His Convict His Convict Indent gives his occupation as Actor, Hatter (3 years) and Clerk ... not your average convict (he was certainly literate). Now, a possible breakthrough came when I found an Elizabeth HENRY, dressmaker, in the 1841 Census, living in St Pancras. The 1851 and 1861 Censuses show her *still* living in that area, with sons Nicholas C (b. 1825, West Indies, Landed Proprietor & Banker Clerk), and Albert C C (b. 1831, St. Kitts, West Indies, a Clerk on the Stock Exchange). Elizabeth herself was b. 1792, in Totteridge, Hertfordshire, and is described as *Fund Holder & West India Proprietor*. Maybe I am clutching at straws ... but Elizabeth is certainly the right age, and the occupation *Clerk* gives me hope :-) I wonder, does anyone on the list know who these HENRYs are? I would *love* them to be relatives of my Frederick HENRY - who died 1872 in Tamworth, NSW, after a varied career which included serving his time as a convict on a farm in Dungog, working as a Police Constable in Clarence Town, and selecting land in Woolomin, NSW, in 1862. (He also owned the Union Hotel there for several years - a kind of amusing end for someone who pleaded intoxication, as wiping out his recollection of the hanky theft). I would be delighted to receive further information about these HENRYs, and would happily swap information with anyone who *might* be linked to my Frederick HENRY. Greetings from Oz, Lesley (In soggy Nundle, NSW, Australia)

Listers, I'm happy to see we're on the case once again. The list has been mighty quiet this summer. Jenny, to encourage you, yes, nearly anything IS possible! I have a great, great grandmother who was 13 when her first child was born in 1859; the parents married more than a year later. Another's child- bearing years (1820-1841) spanned more than 20. I found one woman for whom I had been searching for 10 years by simply entering her surname first into Google. I had been googling her full name for years! (Cemetery indexes often have surname first). A dear person on this list just sent me some info from Google Scholar that Google and Google Books did not find. Others helped me locate a box of materials in Copenhagen. Jenny, keep looking! You can even put a small notice in the person's local newspaper, in case a neighbor's descendants know of him. If there is not a will in the probate court, there will be administrator's papers. I believe in your man. I believe he was penniless and desperately keen to have a gift for his dear tired mother, and thus he lifted the handkerchief. Being no professional thief, he felt this modest piece might be easily pocketed. Every day, there are literally thousands of documents and indexes being added to the internet. Even old newspapers can be searched electronically. Interlibrary loan brings you microfilms of the local newspapers. In one case, everyone thought there was no will, but a deed in a sheriff's sale in a distant state (the executor was selling the land) mentions the will and the date it was written. Any record you find, ask for a photocopy or scan, plus a scan of the cover or first page of the ledger/book. Bottom line: perhaps you can turn something up at the person's local courthouse (don't forget to look at orphan's court) or by reading the local newspaper (including the deaths of his descendants years later; these sometimes recount more family history). When one is writing obituaries, be sure to include the forebears and place of origin. "She was descended from . . . " And, dear listers, a suggestion for your own will: when naming yourself at the start, Include the names of your forebears and the place of their origin along with your own. Or have attached to it a genealogy. For many of us, this will be one of the only PUBLIC record in a court house that we leave behind. In our time, the newspapers no longer cover us when we graduate, marry, visit relatives, or grow a bushel of prime apples, and we haven't joined the local church, our deeds don't say where we are from, and our censuses don't carry our occupations, year of immigration, or valuation. Good luck on your search. You will find something, though it may take a long time. Cheers to all, Laura

Very unlikely I would have thought. Fund-holders and hanky stealers do not really go together. And if they did it would be in the papers. But these descriptions are interesting, dress making and funded proprietor, do not usually go together. Was she the mistress not the wife? I know people sometimes (well often) exaggerate their social position but it is odd if there is a connection. In any case the surnames are very common.

How fast to earn a money? Send 5 dollars to 6 people! I found this on a newsgroup and decided to try it. A few weeks ago, I was browsing through newsgroups and came across an article similar to this that said you can earn thousands of dollars in just a few Weeks with only a small stake of 30 dollars.! So I thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam "but like most of us, I was curious, so I continued reading. Anyway, it is to send $ 5 to each of the 6 names and address stated in this article. Then put your name and address in the bottom of the list at # 6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups (there are thousands!). No catch, that was it. So after a few thinking, and talking to friends, I decided to try. I thought, "What I have to lose except 6 stamps and 30 dollars,, is not it? "Then I sent these miserable 30 dollars and GUESS WHAT !?... within seven days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming. In my first week I made about 100 dollars. By the end second week I had made a total of more than 1100 dollars! In the third week I had over 10 000 and still growing! This is now my 4 week and I have made a total of slightly more than 25 000, and it's still madly coming. It's certainly worth of 30 dollars, and 6 stamps!

It is estimated that 20,000 to 50,000 new users each day, with thousands of those joining in the real Internet. I wish you success and earning lots of money ... it works 100 %.... good luck

Hi list, I just wanted to let you know that I have finished putting up the 1927 Zoomable Jamaican maps on the World Gen Web Jamaica site. I hope they will be useful to someone.

I scrolled down the opening page and found the trade directory of Central America.. to open the text document .. on the left side of the screen you can open the text.. and it will open in a separate window.. you will probably have to zoom in to get the text large enough to read.. Unfortunately it does not cover all the Caribbean islands.. you can check the list covered in the first couple of pages of the index..

Now look what you have done :-) I tried the search words Trade directory of Central America And found this one as well, catchy title eh :-) Encyclopedia of Latin America : dealing with the life, achievement, and national development of the countries of South and Central America, Mexico and Panama, the West Indies, and giving special information on commerce, industry, banking, finance, railways, shipping, transportation, communications, trade, tariff, customs, and all matters of commercial importance (1917) I have not delved to deep but looks to be an interesting tome Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) >I can only find references to the book, not the full text - what search > terms did you use? > > John Weiss > > > On 21/07/2010 10:48, Nivard Ovington wrote: >> Found on www.archive.org >> >> (select texts) >> >> Trade directory of Central America and the West Indies (1915) >> >> >> Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK)

Sorry John I had not noticed that I used "Trade directory" Six hits Plenty more hits without the quotes Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) >I can only find references to the book, not the full text - what search > terms did you use? > > John Weiss > > > On 21/07/2010 10:48, Nivard Ovington wrote: >> Found on www.archive.org >> >> (select texts) >> >> Trade directory of Central America and the West Indies (1915) >> >> >> Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK)

I can only find references to the book, not the full text - what search terms did you use?

Oh shoot.......don't let Kew see this.......she will get a rather large head, LOL!! Actually, I live just outside Toronto in Brampton.......about 30 mins from Dorothy, who was the one who mentored me over at the LDS some 10 years ago. I will have to go back over your *epistle* (G) because I was just asking Dorothy about my father in law. Born in 1908 and I will be darned if I can find that. His mother was the same but after eons, I found her at the start of a film with others that had NOT been indexed.....it seems to just happen to me, I think.

We also know that LDS doesnt include Catholics& dissenters at that time but most of the family seem to have been Anglicans so thats not the reason we cant find the records. We think they are missing from the LDS films but the originals may still be in the Archives. The good news is that despite Jamaica Archives email address per their website is jarchives@jard.gov.jm the first 2 characters are actually upper case! ie JArchives@jard.gov.jm. Halleluia! Nancy PS Where in Canada are you?

Hi Chris The opening paragraphs of the article may be a bit misleading, but the rest of it makes it clear that the project has a long way to go. However, the NLJ's intention to combine the results of "web-archiving" (gleaning appropriate material from the Internet) with the digitisation of its own historical materials makes it an exciting prospect. Moreover, the NLJ is inviting our input into the project's development. For example: "Jamaica Unshackled is the first digital collection developed by the National Library of Jamaica; other digital collections are forthcoming. We would appreciate your feedback and suggestions for digital collections and invite you to contact us at nljresearch@cwjamaica.com <mailto:nljresearch@cwjamaica.com>." <http://www.nlj.gov.jm/index.php?q=digitalcollections/jamaica-unshackled> Peter Moll Tortola, BVI CM Codrington wrote: > Hi Dorothy and all > > I don't know if anyone has tested the NLJ site but in a brief test of the > "estate maps" database presumably on line it is clear the digitization > project is far from complete. > > And does not come close to containing the huge collection of maps and > surveys in their collection.
