I couldn't resist copying out these pages for several reasons. First, the Thomas Bundy listed is I'm sure the one who with his family were kicked back to his native parish of Little Barford in 1758. Secondly, there's John Oakley's wife. I'm not sure yet how these 2 are related to me, but I'm sure they are. Now, that's my own interest. Also, contains interesting information about foodstuffs and cloth/clothing purchases (for the poor?), lots of the poor listed, and an interesting set of entries concerning the illness and funeral expense for John Male.

Dear Listers, I am related (through the CLIFTONs) to some (late) FISHERs at Huntingdon, notably Edward Henry FISHER, who kept The Fountain Hotel in the 1880s, his widow, Mrs Mary Jane FISHER (nee ALLEN), who also kept The Fountain and, later, The George Hotel, in the early 1900s, and their son Edward Henry FISHER, who was a Draper, Milliner, Hosier, Glover, Tailor, Hatter, etc. at two shops in the High Street, numbers 107 and 121, around 1910. Do the names ring bells with anyone? Yours, etc.Geoffrey in Cambridgeshire.
Hello Hunts Listers, I have been told that there is an index of the names in the parish records for Elton, Hunts. Can anyone confirm this and if so tell me if it is available for purchase? I would dearly like to check for the following names:- AYRES,BATES, BELL, HIPPEY,PARKER,ROWLATT,SKINNER and STARSMORE who all appear in my Family Tree. Kind Regards Jessie in Worksop, Nottinghamshire "Gateway to The Dukeries" Looking for STARSMORE anywhere, anytime Jessie's Home Pages http://www.familyorigins.com/users/p/i/t/Jessie-E-Pitt/
BALMER As BALMER (Baumer, Bawmer, Balmour, Ballimer etc.) is not a common name, I am building up a UK-wide archive of them (pre-1900). This already exceeds 8,000 people and is proving useful to others. Hopefully it will be live on the net in the autumn. Although Huntingdon does not appear to have had many BALMER residents, I would welcome any contributions, and if I can be of help please let me know. One family in particular is posing problems. On 2 Aug 1831, James BALMER, an ornamental plasterer of Huntingdon, married Elizabeth, daughter of William BARNARD at Brampton, Huntingdon. He and his family later appear in London, Cheltenham and many other places, belived to be connected with decorative plastering and general plastering work on new housing developments. Some of the family emigrated to Canada and the United States and, as the expression has it, 'multiplied abundantly'. Any information on where this James BALMER came from, or indeed any information on him, would be very gratefully received by a large number of people. Thanks in anticipation, Jim Balmer
Dear Listers, I have noticed great amounts of information being posted to the list which could be used as an invaluable on-line source.

Dear Listers, The Grimsby Pals, who were part of 101 Brigade, 34th Division had followed the Cambs Suffolks into the battle on the 9th April 1917. The two Battalions invariably fought together. Indeed on the 1st day of the Battle of the Somme, the Cambs Suffolks had followed the Grimsby Pals into battle - Both Battalions suffering horrendous caualties. Details of these soldiers can be found on Phil Curme's site at: http://members.netscapeonline.co.uk/philcurme/arras2.htm http://members.netscapeonline.co.uk/philcurme/arras2.htm Kind regards, Martin Edwards Chairman - Cambridgeshire Family History Society http://www.cfhs.org.uk Maintainer - Cambridgeshire History Portal http://www.cambridgeshirehistory.com Maintainer - Local Ancestors http://www.localancestors.com Webmaster - GenWeb Cambridgeshire http://www.rootsweb.com/~engcam Webmaster - GenWeb Huntingdonshire http://www.rootsweb.com/~enghun Webmaster - GenWeb Bedfordshire http://www.rootsweb.com/~engbdf Maintainer - GENUKI Cambridgeshire pages http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/CAM/ Maintainer - GENUKI Bedfordshire pages http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/BDF/ Maintainer - GenConnect BBS Cambridgeshire http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/England/Cambridgeshire Maintainer - GenConnect BBS Huntingdonshire http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/England/Huntingdonshire Maintainer - GenConnect BBS Bedfordshire http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/England/Bedfordshire Personal Homepages http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Martin_Edwards_2 mailto: [email protected]

In the 1871 census for Tansor Northamptonshire there is a Joseph PITTS born Yaxley and his wife Elizabeth born St. Ives both in Huntingdonshire. My question is where would the birth and marriage certificates for these parishes be housed? A distant relative had a researcher do work for him and she thought they originated outside Northants. This could be where it all began! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Jackie.
Here's another years worth. Please note I've gone back to my old email address.

Hi This is my first posting to this list. I am seeking information on this entry on the IGI for a friend. Mary TOPPER baptised Bluntisham, 25 November 1796. Parents, John & Jane TOPPER. Please can anyone confirm whether this baptism was from Bluntisham Baptist Church records. Many thanks David -- David Lane, Weymouth UK [email protected] "When found make a note of"
David, This is what I find for Bluntisham cum Earith. The parents are right for the siblings but the list stops two years short of your Mary. TOPPER, John Chr 1791 HUNT Fa: John TOPPER Mo: Jane TOPPER, William Chr 1792 HUNT Fa: John TOPPER Mo: Jane TOPPER, Jane Chr 1794 HUNT Fa: John TOPPER Mo: Jane Interesting problem.

I need your help to check that all is OK on the following pages just added to my website. This listing was originally done for the "The Pubs, Inns and Taverns Index for England, 1801-1900" website from my copy of "Pigot's 1839 Directory of Cambridgeshire". But as I still have my original transcription, I decided to use it to help me with the writing of [simple] HTML Tables; and hence to be used on my webpages - so here it is! http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~cawthorn/1839Pigots/1839index.html The spellings of names and places are as in the Directory; nothing has been updated! "Pigot's 1839 Directory of Cambridgeshire" is now available on searchable CD from http://www.archivecdbooks.com - old books for genealogists reproduced on CD. If you do find typo errors or broken links, please let me know; although I have spent this last weekend checking and double checking, a few may still have got through.
