Hi S Presumably it was in the birthplace column as you don't normally get a county name in the occupation column, so is probably meant to be Whitchurch (there is one of those in HEF).

I am interested in what happened to Thomas Wilce b1857 and Martha Wilce b1860. They were the children of Thomas and Amelia Wilce and lived in Lydbrook. They also had a brother Arthur who was my partners grandfather . I have located the whole family in the 1881 census. Any information would be very useful. Thankyou David (London)

Hi Listers After discussion, it has been found necessary to slightly modify the fields on the Submission Pages because of confusion which has arisen over surname variants. As a result, the first name field is no longer an option - my apologies if this inconveniences anyone. In instances where someone has submitted more than one posting for the same surname and location, I have grouped these together and adjusted the date accordingly. (If you fall into this category please verify that your posting reflects the correct information.) By deleting the first name field, this now enables surname variants to be entered into one posting. The initial response has been excellent - I have just forwarded Dave the first submissions for uploading. Regards Chris

Hi All, Even though this thread has been quiet, a lot has been going on behind the scenes over the past few weeks. Thanks to the technical skills of David Watkins we are now able to submit our surname interests by following the links on http://members.iinet.net.au/~davwat/royalfor/ David has done a truly excellent job in putting the original concept into practice and my sincere thanks goes to him for all of his hard work. I would also like to thank Marsha and Lee Ann for their constructive comments and helpful advice. So what goes on behind the scenes? David has set up the submissions page so that the postings are forwarded to me. I process them into a tab delimited text file, then forward this to David for uploading. After this first stage has settled down we will look at a Resources Look Up page which Diane Hale of Bath, England has kindly offered to administer - thank you Diane. Regards Chris O'Sullivan Picton, NSW (100 kms s.w. Sydney) Main Research: EDWARDS (Anywhere within FOD but particularly Newent, Staunton, Lydbrook), HOWELL (Newent, Mile End, Coleford) Interested In: ASTON (Five Acres), BALDWIN (orig from Hampshire), GRIFFITHS (Anywhere within FOD), BEACH (Mile End), HUGHES (Lydbrook)

Hi Chris Visited the site and looks great. Question, what if you've got various name variants? I have WAYMAN, WEYMAN, WYMAN & WHYMAN and they are just the common ones! Do I enter one entry for each? Best of luck with the site. Peter Wayman in Stoke-on-Trent Interests WAYMAN, WYMAN etc, All Glos VIRGO, Forest of Dean POOL, Newnham LESTER, Forest of Dean POLLARD Cirencester PORTER Forest of Dean

Many thanks to all those, especially "slowhands" who answered my query about Catherine and Hoarwithy. I would appreciate a lookup of the 1871 census for her Sylvia Morgan _________________________________________________________________ Stay in touch with absent friends - get MSN Messenger http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger
