In 1861 and 1871 the family is living in Metherington, and Susannah dies in 1877 (Edward predeceased her in 1874)Just would like to know where she was in 1851.RegardsJan

This time I'll include the link! http://www.sleaford.gov.uk/Burial%20Register%20Statutory2010.pdf In order of burials, so it would help if you know at least a year of death, but I noticed that there was a Cartwright on the first page. <g> Though you can also do a 'find' search which would bring up any 'precise' spelling of a name e.g. if the surname in the database was spelt Cartright and you searched for Cartwright, you wouldn't get a result.

Hi June I am more than certain that John Thomazin Bird and his wife Catharine are buried in the Spalding cemetery. When I lived in Spalding years ago I did find 2 of the graves for 2 of the daughters and their husbands. I can't think from memory as to the names but one grave was for one daughter and her husband who had the name BRIGHT and the other grave next door was for the daughter and her husband who had the name BATES. The names and dates were quite badly worn so I doubt they will be readable now. I did not find any graves for John Thomazin Bird or his with Catharine but there was quite a few headstones missing from the old part of the cemetery so it is possible that they were buried there and the headstone has now sadly disappeared. The cemetery record books are I believe to be held at the council offices in Spalding who are South Holland District Council the records were moved to the council when the house/office at the cemetery was sold off. The first burial book I believe is to be missing whether due to being mislaid or damage that I don't know. A couple of years ago I was in contact with my fathers cousin who works in the council offices and she said that her friend who also works in the council offices was in charge of keeping the records. She also informed me that the council also had the electoral registers for Spalding and district for years gone which i think she said were in the archive section. Hope this is some help. Jamie. -----Original Message----- From: June Sent: Sunday, July 08, 2012 11:09 PM To: ENG-LINCSGEN@rootsweb.com Subject: [LIN] Lost BIRDs Trying to locate where the following are buried: John Thomazin BIRD; baptized at Spalding St. Mary-St. Nicholas 9 October 1815; BMD Index shows death for a John Bird, age 58, in the 1873 June Qtr Spalding District Catherine (Barker) BIRD; born about 1814 in Spalding (according to census records); BMD Index shows a death for Catherine Bird, age 86, in 1897 Dec Qtr, Spalding District John and Catherine were married 6 June 1839 at Spalding St. Mary-St. Nicholas and all of their children were baptized here.

Matthew Flinders, navigator born Donington Lincs charted much of the South Australian coast in 1802 and owes Sir Joseph Banks also a Lincolnshire lad for support with the British Admiralty. Flinders named many of the features. See Wikipedia for an entry on Flinders "Flinders' work had come to the attention of many of the scientists of the day, in particular the influential Sir Joseph Banks, to whom Flinders dedicated his Observations on the Coasts of Van Diemen's Land, on Bass's Strait, etc.. Banks used his influence with Earl Spencer to convince the Admiralty of the importance of an expedition to chart the coastline of New Holland. As a result, in January 1801, Flinders was given command of the Investigator, a 334-ton sloop, and promoted to Commander the following month." I think we could guess that Spencer Gulf in South Australia could be linked to that support. Also Revesby was Banks'home in Lincs hence Revesby , a suburb in Sydney which is near the suburb of Bankstown. David Central Coast NSW

My son & I moved homes recently and since then I have put a little note in all the inside pockets in my jackets and coats which contain my name and address and my son's phone No. This is a new area to us and no one knows us so as I often go walking in the nearby fields and woods on my own I thought this was something I should do. We do have ID cards here in Germany but I thought the other idea was better than having to think about taking that with me every time. Rita in Germany

Hi June. I've also "lost" relatives in Spalding in the 1870's . I contacted the parish church and also visited the cemetery in Pinchbeck Road but could find no record in their burials book ( this is a map and log of the cem giving the location of all the burials.) I looked at the census and your John BIRD lived in Holbeach Road which by coincidence was where my elusive Levi LAMINMAN lived at the same time. There were a couple of chapels in Holbeach Road around that time and i was told one of them had a burial ground. I know for certain that although Levi was married in the parish church and had his children baptised there, he was a preacher at one of the Chapels. As i couldn't find a burial for him in any of the nearby villages, i came to the tentative conclusion that he may have been buried in the Chapel graveyard so perhaps that is what happened to your ancestor. The non conformist records are held at the Gentlemans Society in Spalding but i haven't had a chance to visit there yet. Mick

I have been looking at maps today , looking for places to go on our next trip. I think the Lincolnshire fellow that named these next places must have been feeling home sick, they are all very close to each other. Port Lincoln, Cape Donnington, Boston Point, Point Bolingbroke, Roxby Island, Reveraby Island, Spilsby Island, Louth Bay. All these places are in South Australia, Bev on Bribie Island.

May I suggest that it was Sir John Franklin together with his cousin, Captain Matthew Flinders RN, who, on their exploratory trip around Australia in the period 1801-1804, were reminded of their Lincolnshire homes. Sir John attended Louth Grammar School. He was born in Spilsby. Matthew Flinders was born in Donington. They would have sailed from Boston. Sir Joseph Banks, who accompanied and financed Captain James Cook 1768-1771, lived at Revesby. Ann ----- Original Message ----- From: "J & B.H.

Never the less Bev. there must have been quite a lot of Lincolnshire people from the old days, that settled in South Australia, and more especially around Adelaide, ( or Church State )  my mother comes from the Bollingbrooke area,part of the Roberts family.

Yes, it appears that Ontario was the place to come early on, but slowly as Canada opened up, immigrants arriving on the east coast moved westward ...some went south into the USA. I think it interesting to follow a family's migration paths: My grandfather Edward Plowright, being the youngest child, followed his three older brothers to Canada's east coast. Only one Lincolnshire born son remained in England. They all first appeared to have settled in Embro, Ontario and then branched out from there. Farmer's sons, the oldest boy, JF settled in Oshawa and was a farmer-miller, Wm farmed in Illinois, while Tom stayed in Embro and farmed there. My grandfather Ed came to Embro first, working there, and in Illinois. He married in Embro and followed his in-laws to Livingston, Montana where the family got homesteaded land and ranched but Ed lived in town. He claimed not to be a farmer but built mills and was known as a stationary engineer. He moved his family from Livingston to Victoria, B.C. on the west coast of Canada. When Mum married dad, granddad got my father a job and he too pursued his ticket as stationary engineer. The story of how we got where we're at Linda B.C. Canada Southern Ontario must have been home to some Lincs emigrants, as we have Grimsby, Binbrook, and Saltfleetby. As well of course, the origin of Boston Mass was emigration from Lincs. One American woman was heard to ask 'Why was Boston in the UK named after Boston Mass?' and also wanted to know why the English changed the pronunciation of Zee to Zed? Boggles the mind. Joan
