Just wanted to add, "well said Joan". Many years ago we had to work very hard to acquire the smallest bits of our family story. We'd write letters and wait weeks anticipating the return. We'd spend hours at the nearest LDS (sometimes not so near) cranking through film until our heads ached and we couldn't see anymore. I would never speak against all the help provided by the web...I think that is progress and it's more than wonderful. However, over the years you "Listers" have given me the most and best help I could ever have asked for and indeed you have gone above and beyond my greatest expectations. You all have become my friends and I continue to learn from your postings as I follow each and every query and offering. You & they are a part of my daily life. Nothing can replace you! Linda B.C. Canada I've noticed the same thing and wondered if people are now getting all their data from the proliferation of websites, and perhaps not using the lists any more. If so, it's a pity as there is nothing like the personal contacts and stories we get from the lists. Joan

Exactly my own point, we do not get any where near as much in the way of letters, that we used to, and sometimes, we also get just an answer to a question, so it is impossible to follow the topic, so just what is going on Please ??.

Hi Lou, again, further to the info about Henry Walter Harrison. He was the son of William Harrison & Temperance Cox from Stallingborough Lincolnshire William was born in 1844 in Barton on Humber. He had 4 siblings, Mary E. 1840 born in Howden , Yorkshire, John Chris. in Dec. 1841 also born in Howden Yorkshire, Thomas 1848 born in Barton on Humber, and Henry 1850 also born in Barton on Humber. Their father was John Harrison born in Copmanthorpe Nr. York Yorkshire born about 1813, and his wife was Hannah Asquith abt 1813 from Featherstone Yorkshire. I have offer this extra info, as no one else has popped up with a connection.

But I've never found her baptism in Frampton - I did find that the GOY family goes back to 1750 in Frampton, but the closest person I could find was Sarah in 1772. Susannah married into my DYE line down in Leverington, Cambridge, in 1793. Do any of you have GOY's in your tree and might know more about her? Lou

Hi, Missing Lincs,     Looking back through my "unfound" notes, I see that I have Susannah GOY who was supposedly born in Framption, LIN, about 1771.  But I've never found her baptism in Frampton - I did find that the GOY family goes back to 1750 in Frampton, but the closest person I could find was Sarah in 1772.     Susannah married into my DYE line down in Leverington, Cambridge, in 1793.  Do any of you have GOY's in your tree and might know more about her?         Lou

Jane I can't give a full answer to your questions, but you may be able to get one (directly or indirectly) from the Stamford Survey group: http://www.stamfordhistory.org.uk/contact There are a number of books dealing with the history of Stamford, some of which include details of traders in the town, e.g. "Stamford Pubs and Breweries" and "Stamford Then and Now" by Martin Smith.  The Town Hall holds historical registers of electors (these are not online, as far as I know), which are likely to cover this period, and there may be some relevant trade directories available online.  Also, the National Newspaper Archive may well have some contemporary copies of the Stamford Mercury online, which could be browsed for this kind of information; and there is always http://www.lincstothepast.com/  and http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ which may throw up something useful from a judicious search. Two of my direct ancestors started trading in St Mary's Street in the mid-1790s, but that is just a bit too late for this particular exercise...  If you discover where this page came from, I would be very interested to hear about it myself. Regards John ________________________________ From: Jane Powell <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, 11 May 2014, 14:33 Subject: [LIN] Stamford Occupants 1776-1793 I have a copy of a page from a book which reads: Plate 8:  Johnson's sketch of St. Mary's Street, showing occupants in 1784.

Hi there, it has been my experience that for several months now, the posting from the Lincs-gen site has been sporadic to say the least. I can go several days, and even weeks between postings from Lincs-gen, I think that I have already mentioned this to Lou, but although I do get a few letters/postings, they are very few and far between. My biggest problem of late, (the last 6 weeks or so ), is that any downloads from Family search are now printed in a FOREIGN Language. I have tried to find the reason both from the Family search site, and also from Ancestry insider, including the makers of my new printer Canon, who quite correctly say, that the printer will only print what is presented to it, which takes me back to Family search, where there was no answer given.

Lou Regarding Marys born in South Luffenham in 1774, I have found a Mary ARCHER baptised on 5th June, daughter of Robert and Rebecca (mother's name may be significant); and according to familysearch there was a marriage at  Deal on 29th Dec 1812 between a Mary ARCHER and a John BENSON - I would be interested to consult the original register to verify John's surname.  But of course, if your Mary married John at the age of about 40 there must be a very good chance that she had been married before.

Rebecca dies in 1959 and is buried in Witham on the Hill at age 45. Mary's marriage was NOT in the BVRI#2. If I knew more about Mary, I might be able to find out more about John.

there was a marriage for Mary Archer in South Luffenham to a Robert? Davis in 1892 when she would have been 18, if he was a soldier too then there is a good chance she had other marriages, but the December marriage in 1812 is a bit late as their son William was baptised on 6th September 1812 and buried in November 1812 at deal.

I can go several days, and even weeks between postings from Lincs-gen, I think that I have already mentioned this to Lou, but although I do get a few letters/postings, they are very few and far between. My biggest problem of late, (the last 6 weeks or so ), is that any downloads from Family search are now printed in a FOREIGN Language. I have tried to find the reason both from the Family search site, and also from Ancestry insider, including the makers of my new printer Canon, who quite correctly say, that the printer will only print what is presented to it, which takes me back to Family search, where there was no answer given.  Bazza On 11 May 2014 09:10, JOHN RILEY <[email protected]> wrote: > Lou > > > Regarding Marys born in South Luffenham in 1774, I have found a Mary > ARCHER baptised on 5th June, daughter of Robert and Rebecca (mother's name > may be significant); and according to familysearch there was a marriage at > Deal on 29th Dec 1812 between a Mary ARCHER and a John BENSON - I would be > interested to consult the original register to verify John's surname.  But > of course, if your Mary married John at the age of about 40 there must be a > very good chance that she had been married before. > > Hope there is enough Lincolnshire in this post... > > > Regards > > John > > > ________________________________ >  From: elaine westaway <[email protected]> > To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Sent: Saturday, 10 May 2014, 22:36 > Subject: Re: [LIN] Mary who married John BREWSTER > > > The only thing I could find was a marriage  for John Brewster to a mary > bird in Dudley West Midlands in 1811, but I cannot find a corresponding > birth in South Luffenham, > > There are several marys born in South Luffenham in the right time frame, > their surnames are Cooper, Arnold, Sculthorp, Tebbs and Shelton > > I hope this is of some help to you > regards > Elaine Westaway > Hampshire UK > On Saturday, 10 May 2014, 18:56, Margaret Taylor <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hi Lou, There is  a Rebecca BREWSTER chr 6 Feb 1814 in Deal Kent to Mary & > John BREWSTER  but can't find a marriage in Rutland or Kent that fits the > picture. > > Margaret Taylor ( Port Perry.Ont) > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Louis Mills" <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2014 1:05 PM > Subject: [LIN] Mary who married John BREWSTER > > > Hi, list, > > I've got a Mary who married John BREWTER circa 1814.

Hi Lou, John M has been captured in 1911 census as John W and I think, looking at the image, that John W is correct. Regards, Linda. -----Original Message----- From: Linda Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2014 11:10 PM To: Louis Mills ; [email protected] Subject: Re: [LIN] Flora Ann HARRISON Hi Lou, Henry and Flora are back in Gt Grimsby at 12 West Street in 1901 with three children (John M aged 8, Temperence May aged 5 and Louis Walter aged 5 months). Henry is employed as a "Brewers Draysman" though his forename is recorded as "Hen" rather than Henry. The family is at the same address in 1911 recorded with the same three children although the record shows that they had a total of 6 children but three had died. On this occasion Flora's forename has been captured as "Hora" - I have submitted a correction. There is also a WW1 Pension record for him and a death listing for Q1 1923 in Grimsby. Hope that helps, Regards, Linda. -----Original Message----- From: Louis Mills Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2014 10:20 PM To: Eng Lincsgen Subject: [LIN] Flora Ann HARRISON Hi, Missing Lincs, While I was looing for Unidentified Flying Marys, I came across Henry Walter HARRISON, who I actually know pretty well. I last have him in the 1891 census in Littlebourne, Kent, although he was born in Great Grimsby in 1867. He and his wife were counted twice in the 1891 census, once in Littlebourne and once in Cheriton (near Folkstone). The only difference in the entries is the age. Can someone check the 1901 census for Flora? I'm curious if they came back to Lincolnshire. She should be age 30, her husband Henry should be 33 working as a groom.
