    3. I have just had subscribers with an Yahoo, Sky and BTInternet address bounced off one of my lists.  I believe this is related to the hacking of the Yahoo servers at the beginning of the year and the volume of spam hitting lists from such addresses. . There are a number of other ISPs who also use Yahoo for their email services. . There is nothing I can do to prevent these unsubscribes. . If anyone is unexpectedly unsubscribed, please resubscribe in the normal way.  If you have an alternative email address available, I would suggest using it. -- List Admin, Derbysgen

    3. Does anyone have any views on whether HAWLEY is a corruption of HAWKSLEY. I have HAWKESLEY, HAUXLY, AUXLY, HAWXSLEY, HAWXLEY and AUKSLEY tucked away in my tree but so far I haven't included any HAWLEY, OXLEY, HASKEY or HAWKEY and have left HAWSLEY alone as a corruption of HORSLEY. I would like to hear from anyone who has a view on this or anyone who has proof of a connection. I know that NOTHING should ever be discounted but if we include every possiblity, I'd need another shed to kep them in!!! Regards, Ted Stevenson; in Perth Western Australia

    3. Hi Peter Thanks for that Lea Mills work! I think I only managed to identify one of mine on the Parcels Book Page 11, a first cousin 2x removed! Hawley, Fred, Pte. 28086, 8th North Staffs, 12th I.B.D. 24th Section a/o A. P.C. B.E.F. France I already had his military number as 28086 which helped with identification, but can someone please explain the other abbreviations!

    3. Evening all Just to announce that I have "gone live" on www.crichparish.co.uk with some of the work a small team of us have been working on in the archives of Lea Mills. Just follow the links from the home page. I must emphasis that the WWI data on both the Crich Parish and Lea Mills links are in the raw stages and we know that editing and reformatting needs to take place. We have put the sites online so that we can obtain further information from "people out there" So, if any of your ancestors worked at Lea Mills or lived in Crich Parish at the time of the Great War and you can add to (or correct) our information please do get in touch. We think there is some fascinating information in the records, much of it from the old Lea Mills records and which have not seen the light of day before. Why Lea Mills on the Crich Parish website? (I do tend to trespass). They were the largest employers of men and women from our parish; some men are on both Rolls of Honour; my grandfather worked in the Mills and managed to get exempted (wondered why he did not serve, assumed health; misassumption) and the research was fascinating. We are currently discussing how to present the ever growing results of our labours. We hope the considerable data now online will be helpful to someone. Peter

    3. My £6.95, 2 day, 500 credits on www.britishnewspaperarchives.com didn't cough up much for my own records, and despite my pre-prepared lists, my time ran out before my credits! However as promised I noted down a number of items from the pages I was on in the hope that it'll help someone else. It would be nice to hear if any of them are yours! And in some cases, like the accidents or crime articles, if they were stories that got passed down! Good luck! -- Something a little different! In between the weddings, funerals, crime and stories on the Derbyshire newspapers' pages, there's sometimes a quote or humourous story: Derby Evening Telegraph Saturday 8 April 1939: 'What's that?' inquired a visitor to Derby yesterday indicating the structure of the town's new Municipal buildings. 'Oh, that's the monkey cage for the town's new zoo', replied his host facetiously! Derby Daily Telegraph Wednesday 09 December 1931: Hiker: Is it far to the next village? Rustic: It seems further'n what it is, but it ain't. Derby Daily Telegraph Friday 14 August 1936, 'Gossip & Grumbles': "Sunbathers : 6d" says a notice at the entrance to a Derbyshire bathing pool. Many must be of the opinion that in this weather it's a shame to take the money! A Derby bound omnibus was held up for a few minutes near Belper last night. A flurried lady passenger had forgotten to bring her macintosh. But the conductor stopped the omnibus outside her house and she ran in to fetch it!
