Hello All I wonder if anyone can tell me where a prisoner who died in Parkhurst Prison in 1905 would be buried. With thanks Evelyn in Kent

Hi I was wondering if anyone had access to the Lymington Parish Record - I am looking for christening in the 1700s. Cheers Claire -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.446 / Virus Database: 268.18.25/744 - Release Date: 3/04/2007 5:32 AM

Hi Has any kind soul got access to the HURSLEY PRs for the mid 18th Century? I am looking for a William BUNCE b c 1775 and his parents. I then need to find from the PRs if this William marries a Martha about 1799 and do they have a son Charles B c1802. They may be my 3x gt, 4 x gt and 2 x gt grandparents but there are several William BUNCES in Hursley/ Winchester c 1760 to 1810 and the IGI and Census records are inconclusive If there is a way to definitely link the three then this would be much appreciated Many thanks Graham

Hi List, I am sure many of you have heard of the LDS project to index ALL their holdings and post them free on the internet. The indexing is now live and if you want to help with the project you can join in. As far as I can see, most of the current batches for indexing are USA census records for 1900, but the sooner this gets done the quicker they will move on to other records, including, of course, UK census, parish registers etc etc. I have had a short "go" and am extremely impressed with the LDS project, a minimum of typing as there is autocomplete on most of the fields. I also like the way that the field you are looking at is actually high-lighted, so you don't spend ages finding your place in the document. A batch is a single sheet of the census return, so you can contribute just a single page - takes about 30-40 mins. You need to download and install the software, but this is quick and easy. For details: http://www.familysearchindexing.org/en/index.jsp Kind regards Sandra

Hi, I am trying to find out if there is any monumental inscriptions or bdms for this area in the early/mid 1600's - I have some Mortimer's deaths but no further information. I have checked the IGI. Any help greatly appreciated. Regards Jenny _________________________________________________________________ Advertisement: Win tickets to see Muse at London’s Wembley Stadium.

As to why he's shown as a labourer, that could range from a reaction to the loss of his wife as such a young age, to his health becoming poor, to decline of work, to the enumerator being officious. > Lymington fits for birth as, no > doubt you're aware, Pennington is right on the doorstep. I wasn't but guessed they must be close.

RG11; Piece: 1189; Folio: 41; Page: 14 Lodger, Gosport Street, Lymington. The rub being "labourer", obviously. Lymington fits for birth as, no doubt you're aware, Pennington is right on the doorstep. With that in mind, there's a death in Mar 1885 that would fit; Cole Richard 61 Lymington 2b 431 > I started off with just her name and her parents names with no idea > of how old they were.

Deaths Mar 1885 Cole Richard 61 Lymington 2b 431 That means he *should* be on the 1881 *somewhere*. Back to familysearch :)) -- Charani (UK)

Brad Rogers wrote: > I didn't look at the '81. I can't find a likely match for a death, > either. Unless he moved away, of course. I only looked for deaths in > Hants at FreeBMD. He could have done because Jane jnr married in Northants but I'm not sure what took her up there in the first place. My great grandfather was a shoe and boot maker. > At least you have enough info to use the GRO's matching service. I started off with just her name and her parents names with no idea of how old they were. Couldn't find their marriage when I expected it to be. Found her brother in the 1881 so looked for him in the 1861 and that's what gave me the siblings and the parents approx DoBs and their marriage much earlier than I'd expected. The IGI isn't producing any clues either so familyhistoryonline will be my next stop and I'll chase down the siblings as well :)) -- Charani (UK)

If anyone has access to the North Waltham Parish records could they please look up the marriage of Joseph Chivers and Hannah Tayler on 7th April 1801. this info was gleaned from Phillimores and I'm hoping there is more info on the actual parish records to confirm a couple of things. Also, any sign of a Joseph Chivers being baptised in North Waltham around 1784 ? Many thanks for any help Lesley

Many thanks. That accounts for why I couldn't find Richard and Jane in the 1881, only Richard jnr. Richard snr seems to have shuffled off by then as well. No, I can't find a good match for Jane jnr either. There's one at Ringwood which may or may not be her. I do have her date of birth though because she's my great grandmother :)) -- Charani (UK)
