Could anyone please give an email address of someone who would do some research for in Cambridge County Record Office for me. It would involve looking through Court Cases for the month of March 1834. I can give more precis names dates etc. later. Thank you, Susan, Victoria, Australia.

Hello Listers, I have an interest in Hilton Village, with two main branches of my family tree coming from there - being the STARLING and BEDFORD family. This is really just to let you know that an Archive has been established for Hilton village at this website: http://www.hilton-village.com/content/view/825/988/ All of it is freely available and is of (in my opinion) a very high quality. As well as many, many photographs of the village, its buildings and its inhabitants, there are old maps, documents and gravestone inscriptions to be found within its digital archives. Hopefully there will be something of interest to any researchers with connections to this village and if anyone has anything they wish to add, I'm sure it will all be gratefully received by the Archivists. Regards, Sally

The Records Office has a research service which I've used in the past.

Thanks to all who replied with great info on what BVRI is & where it can be found. Sure appreciate the help! Sue

Hi Simon You seem to have an over zealous enumerator who seems to add his own additions over and above those laid down Generally anything in brackets is an addition by the statistician compiling information from the census but in this case its clearly entered by the enumerator as its before the occupation On the previous page he has entered (temporary) as shown, in brackets, there was no need to do so Looking further I found some with (Militia Recruit Temp) against their occupation so would say thats what it is Re your mans given occupation, basically he was a Council worker Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > My ancestor Thomas Cross is living as a lodger in the Royal Oak, Back > Hill in Ely on the 1881 census.

My ancestor Thomas Cross is living as a lodger in the Royal Oak, Back Hill in Ely on the 1881 census. He is shown as a 'Labourer on Board of Health Works', but most of the other residents of the inn are shown as '(M Recruit) Labourer'. Would anyone have any idea of the significance of these two occupations? Thanks Simon

Hi JK As I posted before BVRI 2 includes BVRI 1 The online Ancestry version does not include the Scots records as the GROS have not allowed anyone access (obviously make to much out of it themselves) hence why there is only a transcript of the Scots census Some of the BVRI 2 is on the IGI and some on the recordsearch pilot Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) >I believe it's BVRI 2 which is on Ancestry.

Hi David: Thanks for the news (to me) that the BVRI is now on Ancestry. Appreciate your posting. Carol

Hi Please note that a full transcript of Elm Parish Registers, checked against the Bishop's Transcripts, is available from Cambridgeshire Family History Society Bookstall It's microfiche at present, but will be on CD as soon as we can access the final volume of baptisms from 1900 Go to www.cfhs.org.uk for full details -- wendy doyle Projects Co-ordinator

Unfortunately Elm marriages only go up to 1838, so you need the microfilm at the LDS The BVRI is now on Ancestry as England & Wales Christening Records, 1530-1906 and England & Wales Marriages, 1538-1940 David --- En date de : Jeu 17.9.09, SUZANNE HILL <shill7@msn.com> a écrit : > De: SUZANNE HILL <shill7@msn.com> > Objet: Re: [ENG-CAMS] Elm parish records from LDS > À: eng-cambridgeshire@rootsweb.com > Date: Jeudi 17 Septembre 2009, 20h05 > Thanks Carol & David for > explanation on LDS British FHL microfilms! > > David, I know I should recall what BVRI stands for, but > alas I cannot pull it from my memory.  I will go ahead > and order the microfilm as I wanted to comb thru it for any > WHALEY and associated family names in Elm.  > However,  I wonder if the BVRI would show > banns/marriage of William Kitchen to Mary Ann Whaley in 1848 > and if it provides any info other than a date of > banns/marriage.  Is the BVRI searchable online? > > Thanks, > Sue >   ----- Original Message ----- >   From: Carol J Markillie<mailto:cjmarkillie@gmail.com> > >   To: eng-cambridgeshire@rootsweb.com<mailto:eng-cambridgeshire@rootsweb.com> > >   Sent: Thursday, September 17, 2009 10:25 AM >   Subject: Re: [ENG-CAMS] Elm parish records from LDS > > >   Hi Sue: > >   The description "British Film" means that it is of a > church register >   in Britain, not that the film is only there.

As far as I am aware neither BVRI one or two work with mac computers - so if you have a mac don't waste your money on these.

Hi all While the BVRI is now obsolete, some of the contents are on the IGI already and some via record search pilot The BVRI2 is also available on Ancestry but does not include the Scots element As Carol says the LDS FHS should have them Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) PS by coincidence I put my BVRI 1 on ebay just this week > Hi Sue: > > BVRI stands for 'British Vital Records Index' and in my research it > seems to have older records, back to the 1500s, which are often > difficult to find in FamilySearch.org - the > data comes on several CDs in a case with the title Vital Records Index > British Isles - > I bought mine some years ago but you may find them available at your > local LDS library. > > Good Hunting - > Carol

There will be a notation saying something like - 'no circulation to family history centers' if films/fiche cannot be sent out. Generally that happens if either the person who wrote the book or the FHS that transcribed the records prefers not to circulate them. Many FHS rely on income from selling their transcriptions and thus limit circulation. In your case, Elm looks available - Liane

The microfilms are kept in Salt Lake City, and are available to order and view at your nearest LDS Family History Centre. Elm baptisms and marriages are transcribed onto the BVRI. Which events are you looking for? David On Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 2:46 PM, SUZANNE HILL <shill7@msn.com> wrote: > Hi list, > > I looked up the Elm parish registers available from the LDS.

Hi Sue: BVRI stands for 'British Vital Records Index' and in my research it seems to have older records, back to the 1500s, which are often difficult to find in FamilySearch.org - the data comes on several CDs in a case with the title Vital Records Index British Isles - I bought mine some years ago but you may find them available at your local LDS library. Good Hunting - Carol

Thanks Carol & David for explanation on LDS British FHL microfilms! David, I know I should recall what BVRI stands for, but alas I cannot pull it from my memory. I will go ahead and order the microfilm as I wanted to comb thru it for any WHALEY and associated family names in Elm. However, I wonder if the BVRI would show banns/marriage of William Kitchen to Mary Ann Whaley in 1848 and if it provides any info other than a date of banns/marriage. Is the BVRI searchable online?

Hi list, I looked up the Elm parish registers available from the LDS. The years I am interested in are available; however, I notice it shows FHL BRITISH Film #1040578. I live in the United States. Does anyone know if I can get these or not? Thanks, Sue, Ohio
