    3. List: Below are the updates to the Genuki Yorshire site sent to me by Colin Hinson. Again, any questions, etc. concerning these should be directed to Colin Hinson. Sarah McCray ENG-LANCS-YORKS list administrator ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Folks, Please find below the list of Genuki Yorkshire additions and updates for the past 4 weeks or so. This list is posted to all the Yorkshire Rootsweb lists, so my apologies if you have multiple copies. My thanks to all who have contributed, and if I left anyone out of the list, please let me know. In view of the number of "Where is it" queries on some of the lists, I should like to point out that there is on the Genuki Yorkshire site a set of pages called "Where is it in Yorkshire". To the best of my knowledge, these contain the names with links to a description of all the Hamlets, Villages and towns in Yorkshire, and in some cases, single houses too. (If you know different, then please tell me about it). You will also find maps - wapentakes, parishes, and a detailed map of Yorkshire, designed with the Family Historian in mind (it shows which places were in which parish). You will find the "Where is it" pages at: http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/Misc/Where/ please remember to read the all notes, as they may save you some searches in future. If you are looking for somewhere that isn't listed try using the full list of place names and doing a text search on the list - for intance if you are looking for Aughty Bridge and do a search for "y Bridge" you will find Oughty Bridge...........etc. If you are looking for nearby places, don't forget to use the "Nearby places" double headed arrow at the top of each parish page - this will give you grid references too. You will find the maps under the Maps heading on the main Genuki Yorkshire page. You will also find a heap of other information on that page too. There are currently a total of approx. 10,500 pages on the Genuki Yorkshire site - enough to keep you reading for a week or so<g>. Best wishes, Colin Hinson In the village of Blunham in Bedfordshire U.K. Webmaster for the Genuki Yorkshire pages: http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/ Rare Books on CD: http://www.blunham.demon.co.uk/CDroms/ Baine's & Bulmers directories, History of Craven, Heywood/Northowram, National gazetteer of G.B & Ireland, Whelan's York & NRY Hunter's Hallamshire (Sheffield), Yorkshire: Past and Present Poulson's Holderness, Turner's Brighouse, etc etc >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Places in brackets are the relevant (ancient) parishes.
