    3. Can anyone help me with a TAYLOR FAMILY in Wirksworth area please? Wesleyan Methodists. Matthew Spencer (1762–1827), School teacher, may have been born at Kirk Ireton. Married 22.5.1786 Derby St. Michael. K/Catherine TAYLOR (1758-1843) Does anyone have her baptism please and know which Taylor 'clan' she belonged to? My paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Taylor, was born at Skegby, and lived in Radford, Nottingham, where my father Richard Garton was born 1905 - youngest of family. I believe that Catherine may belong to a family who lived in the Cromford area and moved to Kirk Ireton/Carsington area.

    3. I have just received this: Dear Friends of the London FamilySearch Centre, The microfilms at the London FamilySearch Centre will be moving to the Society of Genealogists.  The last day to view microfilms at The National Archives location of the London FamilySearch Centre will be 31 May 2017.  Sometime in June the films will be available for viewing at the SOG. The London FamilySearch Centre is not closing.  The computers and websites will continue to be available at the National Archives location. As a small consolation for the loss of access to the films at the London FamilySearch Centre, there will be no charge for scanning images starting Wednesday, 24 May through Wednesday, 31 May 2017.  If scanned to a flash drive there will be no charge.  If a print is made, the usual 30p cost per print will still apply.  Scanning will be limited to 10 scans or 30 minutes, whichever comes first, if others are waiting.  Free scans will not be available for films that can be viewed online at the centre.

    1. Re: [DBY] DERBYSGEN Digest, Vol 12, Issue 127
    2. It's not Derbyshire but down here in Devon all of the villages around the town of Holsworthy appear under Holsworthy RD in the 1939 Registration but once you find a village grouping then all the people appear together. I think the same happens around Ashbourne but not sure, so could this be the same for South Wingfield bearing in mind the purpose of the Registration? As long as everyone was swept up, such details were not very relevant at the time I would have thought. Meg Galley-Taylor

    3. There is a Henry MASSEY (Incapacitated through war) who is living at Mount Pleasant Farm. No area appears to be down as Wingfield so could be down under Chesterfield RD. Alternatively, look at the other close areas, ie Crich or Alfreton.

I was just tidying up some of my research when I came across a Christian name of a girl called Basiless! I was somewhat confused as I'd never heard of this name before. Was it an error, ie could this have been a boy called Basil? Knowing I then had the place, year and quarter I decided to check on FreeBMD. What a surprise - the child was definitely a girl and her name was Vasilesa. Still not totally convinced I was able to look for a baptism and much to my relief the FreeBMD was correct and agreed with the baptism. So, do be very careful what you accept as gospel.
