Yes, I have looked in the Domesday Book, but as you say, no BRENTNALL as such. The earliest reference I have found was in 1458 when Richard Brentnall of Shipley was presented at Court for foddering his horses on Ilkeston Common. There is a line that has been traced from that date, but nothing prior. Where should I look to go beyond 1458? Any suggestions would be most welcome. Jeanette Brentnall, Queensland, Autralia.

Hi again Thanks for your help Annette My William Mee was born in Derby, Derbyshire and was stated as being 89 on his death certificate. The record of his marriage to Mary Elizabeth Bishop shows his father as also being William Mee. The only children I have for him are those from his marriage to Mary and they were all given the surname Mee Bishop. His occupation at various times was Cattle Drover and General Lodging House Keeper. Many thanks again Helen On Sun, 3 Jun 2018 at 01:16, Annette Watson <annete@aapt.net.au> wrote: Hi, I have done some searching, and as you say there are quite a few MEE names. It is very hard to find him on census without knowing his occupation or children. I checked Ancestry public trees and notice that there are a few people with a William MEE, born circa 1821 in Worthington, Lei. with a death date of 3 Dec 1915, I think this is the one who was 58 when he died. They have a marriage to Sarah TOPLIS, JunQ 1842, reg. Shardlow, I see on freebmd that your William died MarQ 1915. William's parents are Abraham MEE & Elizabeth MASON, is this possibly his first wife. Of course this would all have to be verified, I hope this is of some help, happy hunting, Annette

Hi all I just wanted to remind all subscribers that we now have a new Mailman system for the lists There are several differences in the system Subscribe & Unsubscribe addresses are different (it now has *subscribe* in the address rather than the old *request*) If you register with Rootsweb (you need to re-register even if you were previously registered, if you have not already done so since the 6th March 2018) you will find it a lot easier to sort your own subscriptions, subscribe/unsubscribe and can now also put yourself on a temporary hold, such as when you go on holiday Changing email addresses is also much easier But if you don't register/re-register with Rootsweb (its not obligatory) you can still subscribe / unsubscribe as we used to (using the correct address of course) Go to the Rootsweb homepage http://home.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ Select Mailing Lists from the top bar menu Enter the list name in the Find a List search box Select that list from the following page (there may be more than one depending on what you used to search on) The following home page for that list will have the correct addresses to select for Subscribing, Unsubscribing and to contact the list owner There is also a link to take you to the list archives (which looks quite different from the old archives) NB to search *all* the lists archives together you need to start on the page where the Find a List search is ======================== Please remember to send posts to the list *from* the email address that you *subscribed* with I am receiving a few posts from people who may be subscribed but who are using a different address The new system does not allow a reason to be added to a rejected post Also please remember if you are a digest user, to either start a new email using the original subject line, or copy and paste the original subject line into your reply, and then delete all parts of the digest that are not relevant to your reply Thank you -- Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK)

Good morning I have just added a pretty hefty number of Fritchley photographs (courtesy of Peter Black) I have organised them into collections – views/ groups/sports teams/school www.crichparish.co.uk <http://www.vrichparish.co.uk/> The can be seen via the New Links option on the home page or the Photo Albums link Many of the “people photos” are named so if you have Fritchley links it is worth a look. As to the unnamed I will make local queries but if anyone on list can enlighten me as to date or names I would be delighted. Still got to finish the Brian & Herbert Key archive plus just taken copies of the Crich Parish Council collection recently “discovered” so, plenty more to follow over next few weeks I notice with interest that the 1950s photographs look quite recent to me!

I do get called some weird names ;-) No the fathers would not be mentioned in the PRs for a marriage in that period, and not usually pre July 1837 The only hope would be if it was by licence and one or other father was mentioned But sadly yours is by banns It reads Samuel HEROD of this parish and Charlotte MELAND of this parish were married in this church by banns this 3rd day of November in the year one thousand seven hundred and eighty eight by me Thos HUMPHRIES This marriage was solemnized between us (both signed the register) In the presence of John FAWCETT? & Thos ALLEN There is a baptism of a Charlotte HEROD dau of Samuel & Charlotte at Sawley born Jan 2nd 1803 A Charlotte HEROD was buried 1st Aug 1804 at Sawley Also in 1804 a Sophia HEROD was buried 28th MArch Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 02/06/2018 14:27, Bairbre wrote: > Hi Nivaldo > I’m one of the silent members who finds all messages very interesting. > My brick wall is Samuel Herod.

Hi - My 4th gr grandmother was Dorothy Herod who died 1801 in Duffield. She married into my Haynes family in 1779 in Duffield so I would assume she was born around 1759. One of the witnesses was a Sarah Herod. But like you, I have been unable to find any other records of the Herod family. On Ancestry there is another Dorothy Herod who married Thomas Wist in 1732 in Scropton. Hope this helps!
