    2. Peter HOLMES
    3. Pam & others, Thanks for the response (quite late at night for you I imagine?) Of the 2 alternate birthplaces I believe Ashby Puerorum is most likely as it is the village immediately south of Salmonby & John's parents probably farmed between the 2 places. I have verified on FreeBMD & FreeREG his death in 2nd qtr 1861 The marriage has also been located, but for the life of me I can't find the birth nor death of Alice. For her birth I've perhaps got to get access to the PR for Hundleby? Her death is a strange affair. Whilst she is shown on the 1861 census with husband John I can't find a subsequent death in the mid/late 1860's. However, in Spilsby RD there is a FreeREG burial of an Alice DAVISON = #1 Record Type Burial Date Surname Forename County Place Name Burials 16 Sep 1860 DAVISON Alice Lincs Welton le Marsh. Person's name and place of residence are OK but have BOTH Ancestry and FreeREG transcribed it wrongly? (Alternatively, John entered wife on the 1861 census wrongly! (Perhaps he still missed her?)

The FreeBMD project is close to completion now and most volunteers will hopefully carry on transcribing for FreeReg.

    2. John Rylatt
    3. Hi Renne, Sorry you are having problems. I did look at your response and your comment about WINEHURST being WINCHURST is correct. After George W deserted, he left his once wealthy family impoverished, so much so that Marrianne's wealthy family came to the rescue along with Millie BACON. George is said to have left his family after their last child Wilfred Austin Rylatt died 12 Jan 1889 at 9 months. Prior to the desertion, the RYLATT and WINCHURST families were involved in the gold and silver and jewelry trades, and my father, born abt 1900, left with my older brother several photos of property and other printed records of births and deaths, along with his recollection of various family members and events. So I am still trying to find out more about George after 1889. Have a great New Year!

    1. Re: [LIN] Roy and Jessie K. PANTON
    2. Charles Gunther
    3. Hi Lou, Thanks for the advice and will gratefully take it. What I didn't want to do is to write a piece on the possible father of Jessie K. PANTON which shows that he was leading two lives at the same time. He claimed to be married to a British woman on the 1911 UK Census while he was also married an American woman on the 1910 US Census. I felt if I could find Jessie and see if the family knew about this situation then I wouldn't be causing a problem for the family. There is nothing in this for me. Basically an article came on on the subject and I was researching the same subject from a different angle. While the article didn't know, or chose to ignore, I found out by accident the dual life of a particular person. From your suggestion I think I will leave it at that and let the editor of the particular journal decide on whether to comment or not. May I add the family were not originally from Lincolnshire but Cheshire and the USA but living in North Wales - the journal is centred in Wales too. Also, of course, my research is guesswork and the route taken may well be inaccurate.  Thanks again and I think I won't ask any further questions.

PANTON Hi, Charles,     Well, you've got one big problem and that is that many records in the UK are protected by a "100 year" closure regulation to protect people's privacy.  Many professional genealogists sign a document when they join a professional group that certifies that they will not look up possibly living people.  I know if you revealed such information in the US, we'd all be waiting for the lawyers to sharpen their knives and to open up their wallets waiting for the money to flow in.     Now, that's not to say it's impossible.    I'm amazed at all the "private" information that appears on the Web.  And there are those who flaunt such regulations.  Problem is, they can get the list shut down if they are blatant enough to post via the list.  Our hosts don't want any legal problems.  So the best I can tell you is, Good luck.  And please understand if we can't help you.       Lou (list admin.) ________________________________ From: Charles Gunther <cwegunther@yahoo.com> To: "ENG-LINCSGEN@rootsweb.com" <ENG-LINCSGEN@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, January 7, 2012 12:57 PM Subject: [LIN] Roy and Jessie K.

The couple had two children and Jessie K. was there second daughter. I found a record of a marriage overseas of a Jessie K. GLENN to a John W.H. PEART and a few years later, in 1958, a marriage of a Jessie K. PEART to one Roy PANTON. Roy would seem to have lived in Lincolnshire and may have lived recently in Grimsby. There seems to be an electoral reference to a Roy and Jessie K. PANTON in 2002.  I found that a Roy PANTON was born in 1936 and I knew that Jessie K. GLENN was born in 1919. This may be guesswork and I may have the wrong people. But it would be nice to clear this up one way or the other. Negative answers are not always bad!

Research so far shows the distance between these places as being about 30 miles which is a bit too far for someone in later stages of life to be wrong about birth places I would think. Was/is there somewhere closer to Salmonby called Ashby? Regarding Alice, whose date of birth appears to be 1779/80 - shown in '41 as "Alis" - she was born in Hundleby according to the 2 latter census pages but is there any way of tracing their marriage which could give me her maiden name (& possibly John's birthplace)?

I don,t know much about this family and am sorry I never thought to talk to my Dad about them before he died, I didn,t become interested in family history until I retired and by then most of my older relatives had passed on.
