Despite the article being in the Yorkshire Post I think you will find that it is about Ramsey on the Isle of Man. It looks like a syndicated article an it also appears in the Isle of Man News here: http://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/isle-of-man-news/new-houses-a-welcome-additio n-in-ramsey-1-7613314 Terry -----Original Message----- From: eamca@bigpond.com [mailto:eamca@bigpond.com] Sent: 06 February 2016 00:19 To: ENG-Lincsgen-L@rootsweb.com; bmc34.fh@ntlworld.com Subject: Re: [LIN] George CABON Spilsby 1844 - birth found Hi Bruce, There definitely is a Ramsey in Yorkshire. I dont know of it, but here is a couple of restate chaps in Ramsey http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/new-houses-a-welcome-addition-in-ramsey- 1-7613314 Maybe you could look in the White pages for an address with that surname if any. I would imageine she may have been married at some time being only very young when sh gave birth to George. You could look for a marriage for her now. Edie

My thanks to Nivard Ovington and Edie for their responses to my query (below). I now have the birth certificate for George CARBONE from the only likely GRO reference. He was born on 10 Nov 1844 in the workhouse at Hundleby (Spilsby district) of Sarah CARBONE; no father is shown. I wonder if "Samuel" was invented as a father's name to add respectability to his marriage certificate; perhaps the father was indeed a Samuel. In the 1851 census Sarah CARBON was age 24, one of numerous servants at Scrivelsby Court, Horncastle, with a birthplace recorded as Ramsey, Yorkshire. Sadly, I can find no such place. Nor have I yet found George (age about 6) in the 1851 census. Bruce Moffatt Collins Bracknell, Berkshire bmc34.fh@ntlworld.com -------------------------------------------- I am struggling to work back from George CABON born ca. 1844 in Spilsby, Lincs. He married Ellen SIMPSON in Sculcoates (Hull, Yorkshire) in 1867; the register has CABORN as his surname, also that of his father Samuel. In the poorly transcribed 1861 Census he is likely the servant George CABORN/CABAN in the family PATCHETT/PATCHELL at Bilsby/Spilsby. In the 1871 census he was in Hull as a policeman under the name CABON. He went on to be a successful grocer in Grimsby. I cannot find him (age about 6) in the 1851 census, nor have I found a convincing record of his father Samuel's birth. Who can help? -------------------------------------------------

Hi Geoff Thank you for bringing this to my attention this most informative read re Wrangle...and I’m only half the way through! My grandfather, Ed Plowright was born there. His parents and most of his siblings were either born there or were a part of this parish whilst growing up. My husband and I found a cousin living in Wrangle and were so blessed to visit in 1997.

What I do is what I have done here; cut and paste addresses and then do the same for what I want to comment on. "I DID snip and the names were on a list but this email system is as bad as the new Word versions, it edits itself!"  I agree wholeheartedly."Mike, can you please supply some tuition. I know what you mean but am unsure of the process."  Trial and error especially getting addresses in the "To" area. Somewhat slow and painful but better than seeing multiple copies of the same emails when the thread starts to get very long. Mike

Thanks for reminding everyone about putting surnames in capitals. Now the other "moan".  How about snipping previous replies. Mike

Hi Nirvard You're right, I never realised they were unconnected - their websites look to be in the same style, but I always wondered why I couldn't find a link from Durham Record Office website to DurhamRecordsOnline! I generally just use their search function and then either go to the BTs on Family Search, or to the PR microfilm in the Record Office (I live nearby).

Hi Barbara Many thanks for that! The Family Search catalogue is something I must look into in more detail if it contains records of this quality. So he was a 'mariner' and he had been living in the parish for more than 4 weeks. His age ties in very well. His bondsman was a boat builder - perhaps he was doing some repairs? John Dandison's signature is fairly distinctive for the time (unusual capital D and comparatively small, neat lower case letters) and I will be able to compare it with his 'Humble Petition' to Trinity House of 1799, when I next visit the Society of Genealogists. Wish I'd made a copy when I was last there! The year before, in 1789, it was probably his ship that had been lost on the Goodwin Sands whilst returning from Tortola (crew saved 'by the Deal boats') and it may well have caused financial problems for him ('...but by Misfortunes is quite reduced').

However, the record of this marriage is listed as a Marriage Bond. These, together with Bishop's Transcripts, are held by Durham University (they have a lot of the old cathedral records, it appears). And all the images have been scanned and uploaded to the Family Search website. However, they are not indexed by person, but can be browsed. The marriage Bonds are held in date order - you can select the year and then browse for the date. There are 964 for 1765! But you can skip to say page 600 and then search etc You WILL find the one you are looking for - there are two consecutive images, one of the marriage licence and one the bond. Don't forget to look a few days before the marriage took place as the date is when the licence was issued. I shan't spoil your fun by telling you what it says....but do get in touch if you can't find it. The link is here: https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1675690 click Browse through images, then select year, then click on reference number and you are away. Enjoy!
