Hi I'm new to the list and not at all sure that I'm asking in the right place but here goes! Can anyone tell me which church a family who lived in Falsgrave from 1844 to 1871 would use? Paula

Hi Cathy No luck in finding Thomas Mike

Hi Hazel Thanks for the prompt reply it may help narrow down when William came to Hull and where his wife Elizabeth died. Maria

Hi Maria, Nothing found in Pigots 1834 Burrill, William - Blackfriargate -- Whites 1840 In the 1857 Post Office Directory there is:- Borrill John, Baker - 72 Lowgate Borrill Saul, Baker - 53 & 73 Mytongate Possibly family? Hope this Helps.

I am looking for William BORRILL/BURRILL who was a baker. In 1831 William was still in Lincolnshire. If I have the right William on the 1841 census he is residing in Lowgate Hull, where descendants of the BORRILL'S were bakers right up to the late 1800's (and possibly later). I have two possible deaths for William in 1848 and 49 (he's not on the 1851 census). Colin HINSON had posted directories on the Genuki site but all I can locate is the 1892 one I was sure there were others (earlier ones) but I can't locate them. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated, this is a brick wall that I have been trying to get over for the past five years doing so will link three BORRILL lines in Hull together and connect them to my husbands Lincs line., and bring 10 'cousins' together. We now have enough information to link two siblings together but would like a bit more to say they are linked to the third. All have connections to a William BORRILL a baker. we are getting so tantalisingly close to linking them all up now.

Hi All I know there is a CD for the 1841 but I am not sure how easily 'searchable' it is. I have been sent the following two families and wondered if it was possible to obtain the original copies of the census. It would seem William is the person I have been searching for although the transcription says he and his daughter were born in the county, I think he could be the one born in Lincolnshire as was his daughter Eve Elizabeth in Louth Lincs in 1831. Name Relation Age Occupation Born In Hanover Square, Lowgate, Hull William Burrell Head 50-54 Baker Yorkshire Elizabeth Burrell 10 " Elizabeth Thompson 65-69 Washer Woman " Lowgate is where Wilson BORRILL (son of William BORRILL and wife Elizabeth WILSON) and wife Sophia lived when the children were baptised during the late 1830's/early 1840's. Church Street, Drypool, Hull John Barril Head 20-24 Baker Not in Yorks Lewisa Barril 20-24 " Best Wishes Maria

Maria, The first family you mention is at HO107 Piece 1230/4 Folio 16 page 25. The transcription you have is correct BUT for all three people the 'Where born' information is wrong. All three names have N for no. The second family is at HO107 Piece 1221/5 Folio 33 page 6 I would transcribe the household as follows: Borough of Kingston upon Hull Parish of Drypool Church St John Borill age 20 Baker no Lewisa Borill age 20 no William Redforth age 15 Ap yes In the process I found another baker in Drypool who is called Thompson: HO107 Piece 1221/5 Folio 40 page 19 Drypool John Street Edward Thompson age 25 Baker yes Ann Thompson age 25 yes Marey Thompson age 11 yes Hope this helps Regards Chris Watson --- Maria Borrill <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All > I know there is a CD for the 1841 but I am > not sure how easily 'searchable' it is.

Hello Jean, I don't have your Walter BAXTER, but if you discover a little of his ancestry please come back to me. I have several BAXTER lines in the Holderness, but BAXTER is a very common name in East Yorkshire, so I don't promise a connection. Happy New Year to all and Good Hunting in 2006. Peter FEWSON

Numbers 14 & 16 High Street would indeed have not existed as High Street then but the cottages referred to are between the Blacksmiths (which existed on the opposite corner of Cliff Lane to where the White Horse pub now stands) and the junction of St Michaels Walk,once known as Poor Folks Lane as it appears on 1851 Map. Nowadays Number 24 High Street is the first older cottage past the Former Blacksmiths (and is a larger house than the smaller cottages to the right of this). Then there are 5 cottages to the right before Poor Folks Lane. 16 & 18 High Street may have in earlier censuses around 1861 been thesecon and third end cottage before Poor Folks Lane as now -A Map Of Old Bempton in 1851 on www.old-maps.co.uk shows the row of cottages directly above(about an inch above) the i in St Michael's Ch. text The road does not indeed appear to pass in front of these cottages at this point.I do not know if later O/s Maps show the road appearing and when.

Hi Bill My own preference is for everything to be in one file. I have close on 19,000 names. You can chose what you like to do which is either follow what I have done or have three separate files. If you chose the former you can always split the files to as many as you like. All names have their own generated numbering system. This is done automatically for each name you add. But you can give each person your own number. This is known as custom ID. I don't bother with this. I started with using an A4 sheet but found it too labourious and time consuming especially when you want to find one name. I then bought a FT software (not Family Historian) but got fed up with the constant reminders asking me to send my details to their web site in addition there was a lot of weakness in it. So I moved to Family Historian which I find far better. The software is easy to use. Adding a family crest or any photos is no problem and these all appear on the family tree diagram as well as the narrative reports. You can see the Family Tree diagram in full and print it as you see it. A manual is available but I have only used it a little prefering to learn as I go along I am also doing the family tree of a family friend and this is in a separate file so it's no problem. You will have read another listers comments so I hope the above and those comments are helpful to you. Should you go ahead and obtain this there is a very helpful users group who will answer all your questions very quickly. Do have a look at the demonstration on the FH web site. Hope the above helps.

Hello Victor, I have been reading the correspondence re the prog FAMILY HISTORIAN. Now I am not a computer buff so am slow in mastering these systems, I have tried several, and given up because I could see that they would not suit my particular needs. Perhaps you would be good enough to comment if I may eventually find one, or should I try a different way. Currently I laboriously compose my lines on A4 sheets then make up a large chart.....to see where I am going ! Currently it is 8 foot by 3 foot. About a 1000 names. Briefly I have 3 distinct groups, which I have inherited or researched by the old methods. 1) 1250 to 1890, with Usurpers carrying on the name [There is a Family Crest involved]. 2) 1550 to present [My line]. 3) 1650 to present. #1 starting just N/W of Sheffield #2 & 3 pointing that way. I have a numbering system and made a list so that I can scroll down to a particular number/person. I was hoping at one time to be able to SORT for date...place of birth.... ditto death....etc. Do you think it would be best to settle for 3 separate files ? I will have a look later at that try and evaluation programme mentioned.

I too use Family Historian and as a 'new user' have found it easy to use and so far...fingers crossed... I have been able to manipulate it just as I would wish. I think its brilliant! Angela Chapman Researching: BARNFATHER, East Riding & North Yorkshire

Like Victor I also use Family Historian. I have found it very flexible and as simple or as complex as I wish it to be . Among it's many useful functions are: 1. The ability to show all records where the occupation is listed as lime burner (e.g.) 2. Likewise all records associated with a particular place, e.g. West Heslerton 3. It is possible to edit, add, delete records using a diagram view. - wonderful! 4. There is an all relatives function 5. Bits of complex diagrams can be switched on or off so that one gets just what one wants. 6. The ability to do many different types of analysis. 7. It uses GEDCOM 5.5 as a base so there is no difficulty importing or exporting data. Personally I would not wish to move to anything else. As Victor says a new improved Version is out in January. The website has a downloadable demo version to try before you buy. _http://www.family-historian.co.uk/_ (http://www.family-historian.co.uk/) I hope this helps a little. Sue

I use Family Historian which is Access based (you don't need to have access). You can see a demo on www.family-historian.co.uk A new version is due to be released this month.

Nancy, Which is the best genealogical software usually depends upon the individual. Kith and Kin Pro might be what you are looking for with a relational database and SQL for queries. Its display a families trees is unique and interactive. However not for everyone. Check out www.softspan.org. There is a free or cheap trial version. If the database is the important thing to you check out Custodian3 (www.custodian3.com, I think). It does not connect individuals so needs to be used in conjunction with a .'normal' genealogical program that shows relationships. No connection with companies, only a user.

Hello List, and a very happy New Year, Maybe this year I can get some more of the little ducks in a row...genealogically speaking... Has anyone on the list any idea of how I can find a Pedigree for Rev. Valentine Ma(y)son, born Cherrington Co. Warwick, Nov 1583. (I have no siblings for this Valentine, or indeed parents). He was the founder of the Ma(y)son line of Hull. I am trying to find more information about these Ma(y)sons. I have a line for the family after Valentine, although not complete...this line of Ma(y)sons were linked to two different families of Dixon... my main interest... I do know that Rev. William Mason was the 'Poet Residentiary' of York Minster, he was a 2Xs great grandson of Valentine and considered by some to be the first English poet of his time... I also have on my immediate pedigree, a 2Xs great grandmother born of another 'William Mason of York', who could be related to the Masons of Hull, although quite far back in the pedigree I would think. My 2Xs great grandmother Harriet Mason married into a 3rd line of Dixons, namely my 2Xs great grandfather 'John Webster Dixon' of Sheffield... My 3Xs great grandfather 'William Mason' was a printer of St Martin-le-Grand, Coney Street, York in the early 1800's...he appears to have been born in 1780; Christened at Christ Church York on 20 Feb 1780. this also raises the question as to wether there would be any information for the Church of St. Martin-Le-Grand, and listing of employees etc for the time frame mentioned. I know this Church was severely damaged by bombing in WW11. I have not managed to find Thomas on any census for York, but it is a vast area I know. I do know that this printer, William Mason married a Mary Jane Percevell on 27 Jun 1802 at Christ Church, York, she was the daughter of a Thos Percevell and Mary (Newton) Percevell I believe; and was born in 1781, christened at St. Denis York 23 Aug. 1781. I would think the line is correct as from an 1841 or 51 Sheffield census, I found a brother of Harriet Mason, who was living with his sister and her husband; his name was 'Thomas Percevell Mason'.. Does anyone have an ability to be able to send me a copy of the actual record for this Marriage entry mentioned above, I only have the IGI record as it stands right now... If not, please could you tell me how to go about getting such an entry. I would very much appreciate any help/ information on any of the above, thanking you in advance for your patience, Kindest regards, Josephine, Ontario, Canada.

Yorkshire Parish Register Section, Yorkshire Archaeological Society Beginning in 1899, the YPRS has published 170 volumes of Printed Parish Registers (most are indexed). Some include all the PRs for a parish up to 1812 or 1837; others, particularly for large parishes, contain the entries for a shorter period and several volumes are required to cover the period to 1812. Most of the early volumes are long out-of-print in book form. These have been available on microfiche for some years but we are now producing some of the larger parishes on CD (several volumes on one disc), the latest of which is: "The Parish Registers of Rothwell, 1538 - 1812." Recent Parish Register publications include Masham 1599 - 1837, published in 3 volumes (Books); and CDs include Whitby, Darton and Sandal Magna. These and other publications on CD, books and microfiche are all available from: Publication Sales Yorkshire Archaeological Society 23 Clarendon Road LEEDS LS2 9NZ and online at http://www.yorkshireparishregisters.com Happy New Year!
