Hi all Just looked on the 1901 census and found 3 HEDGE's that are probably mine, but I have no connection for them. Could SKS please look up the 1871 census for Sarratt, looking for Philip HEDGE born 1863 and Harvey HEDGE born 1862. On the 1871 Census for Bushey could SKS please look up Emanual J HEDGE born 1861. Many Thanks Paul

Hi There has been a lot of talk on the list recently about one name studies, but i was intersted to know if anyone has/is carrying out a one place study or has used inforomation form one? It seems that all my ancestors have originated from one tiny little village, with about 800 drewllings so of course lots of cousins marrying cousins and the same surnames cropping up time and time again... Only problem is, its one of those parishes that has not given permission to have its PRs filmed by the LDS and therefore does not appear on the IGI unless the record has been submitted by a LDS church member. Therefore, I thought it would eb easier to look at the pRs and just write everything down,...i can put all thsi information into a gedcom and then try and work out how I am related to everyone I liked Roberts suggestion of keeping it as a casual thing...but is there a society like GOONS for one place studies??

Robert, Thanks for all your great advice! Where do you have your gedcom? Could I take a look? From the response I've gotten both on the list and off list. I will be continuing my one name study on the surname PEGRAM and all variations. I'm going to do my own thing as you say, to stay in my comfort zone. I'm presently using the LDS microfilms of Parish Records and also the LDS microfilms for the 1841 & 1851 census and Ancestry.com for the 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891, 1901 censuses. I will more than likely see about adding the gedcom to the Rootsweb site (World Connect Family tree). My only hesitation is that I have already found other family trees online which I feel have mistakes in them. I'm just afraid of doing the same...having mistakes and possibly leading someone down the wrong path. So far no one else has contributed to the project, but I'm more than willing to accept help or advice and corrections. And as to the last comment, this has already helped me to find more in my line. Thanks again! Theresa E.

Theresa , and anyone else contemplating a one-name study , I can recommend running the study as an informal one-name study , and declaring it as such in postings to lists . That way you can include what you want and not feel obliged to take on more than you are comfortable with . The crucial points as far as I'm concerned are: Publicise your project on relevant lists Make a version of your database available online as a gedcom ( using GenCircles or some other freely accessible website ) . If you drop out of online genealogy , at least your work and the contributions from others who've helped you will remain accessible for others . Put a good , full introduction to your database on your online version - this way it will be found by Google ( the database entries don't get Googled , but your introduction will be found and lead others to it Always include your data , its sources and your own helpful comments in your gedcom database . Backup , backup , backup . Put out requests for info on lists - repeat this from time to time When you are provided with info by others , credit them and ( if they want ) give their contact details in your database notes Lastly , plug your project from time to time -eg mine is the Hertfordshire BIGG Project , covering 19th century and earlier BIGG and BIGGS families . You should find that your original idea , to help you sort out your own family from other namesakes , is likely to meet with success . In any case , such a project is FUN . Do it ; enjoy it . Best wishes to all listers, Robert Hillier

Hi Josie, I am afraid that I cannot help with the names that you have given. I have a Hannah Butterfield in my tree that married a Thomas Darton in 1849 in St Ippollitts. She was born in Knebworth around 1827 and I think her father was William butterfield.

Hi Maybe the local Council has records. It may be that a contract to supply drain covers was tendered for. It would be surprising if there wasn't a Sewerage or Drainage Dept which had a record because of the obvious quantity and ongoing need involved. Another area where there may be records is in the manufacture of the drain covers. Were they steel/iron? You may be able to track down the foundry or wherever they were made. Lastly, I believe there would be someone who even collects such items. I don't know how you would find out, but a local Museum may be able to help, or even one of the bigger London Museums. You may even be able to find an example of one of the drain covers, or a picture of one somewhere, through researching the history of drainage and sewerage. It is amazing what people write books about. Hope you find what you are looking for. Sue R in Oz (formerly of Enfield, Middx)
