Hi all, It's a while since I last broadcast anything so herewith my Best Wishes for the Festive Season to you all and may all your research problems turn out to be truly insignificant....... The tempo of additions to my Web site has slowed in recent months for one reason or another but I intend to try, in future, to post alterations to this mailing List to save you accessing the Web site un-necessarily. Recently, I've added 1841 census transcripts for Woodleigh, Rattery and Cornworthy and re-organised access to the Churchstow/Kingsbridge Union Workhouse returns. In case you haven't noticed, the main 1841 index compiled from all parishes covered to date, is accessible via the "South Hams" page and can be quite a useful finding aid for that awkward period from 1837 to 1851. I'm currently working on the 1841 census of the Totnes Union Workhouse. Even though most of the parishes in this Union are not precisely within my definition of the South Hams, the returns may reveal just the person you are looking for. I'll shortly be adding a new page to the Web site that will list details of a small collection of books that I hold. These are mainly to do with the area surrounding Kingsbridge but contain 100's of photographs that I can easily copy - - but just the odd one, please, so as not to infringe any copyright that may apply. Regards to all, Ray Osborn Rotorua, NZ Co-ordinator of the Rootsweb SOUTHHAMS Mailing List and Webmaster of the South Hams information site - to be found at <http://my4bears.orcon.net.nz/Home.html>
