Hi Bill, That's very interesting, thankyou-I too think they are the same person, but was hoping the baptism might prove it. Are the records from which free reg taken, Parish Records or Bishop's transcripts-those on Lincs to the Past would appear to be BT's, the writing is so neat, so much the same throughout, and neatly laid out, unlike many parish records.

Hi Nivard Thank you so much for explaining this to me. This was the link someone gave me, but I couldn't understand what he was telling me. Me being a bit thick today I think! lol.

Not sure which bit is confusing you, but if it's 'deanery', then this link should help. http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LIN/Deans/index.html William's baptism is the bottom of the left-hand page. http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/RecordDisplayTranscript.aspx?oid=551544&iid=64769 As long as his siblings were born between 1800 and 1813, then all you need to do is to go backwards/forwards as necessary via the image numbers at the top of the page. If they were born out of that range, then go to 'advanced search' and in the 'With the exact phrase' box enter 'boston st botolph par 1', and then search the results for a baptism register with the appropriate years. There may be more than one register for those years, as I noticed that there was a 'Baptisms rough unsigned register' for 1800-1813 as well. Always a good link to bookmark when searching in a new county is Genuki. http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LIN/index.html Lincolnshire Family History Society (see link in my signature) have published many indexes for baptisms, marriages, and burials, and are indexing further records.

Hi, John Walker & Meziah Briggs marry at Tydd St Mary, on 17 December 1801, banns were called in September, 13, 20 & 27th of that month, according to Lincs to the past. They have a child, John Walker, born before the marriage & christened at the church 11 November, 1801, according to the same source, Meziah states that John Walker is the father. They then have another child, Hannah, baptised 3rd July, 1803. (5 July: Hannah, daughter of John Walker, labourer and Meziah Briggs, his wife.) There are then 2 more children, Abraham, 1805 & Lucy, 1806, fathered by John, but in each case the mother is shown as Charlotte Briggs (Lincs to the Past). e.g. ( Lucy: May 28: Lucy, daughter of John Walker, labourer, and Charlotte Briggs, his wife. James Wardleworth, MA , asst. curate) Then in 1807, another child baptised at Tydd, father John Walker, mother Meziah Briggs, his wife. (7th May, 1807, Mary, daughter of John Walker & Meziah Briggs, his wife.) John dies in Walsoken, and is buried at Tydd St Mary on 8 November 1807, but Meziah, continues to live in Tydd, losing Abraham, aged 6, in 1811, but re-marries in 1821 to Thomas Thickpenny, again at Tydd St Mary. I can't find a marriage between John Walker & Charlotte Briggs (anyway Meziah doesn't die) So is Meziah Briggs, Charlotte Briggs? Can anyone find a baptism for Meziah/Charlotte Briggs? John Readman

Here's a fun project.  Look at some of Anne Cole's Bastardy reports that she has transcribed from the newspapers and pick out two or three cases that interest you.  Look those individuals up.  What happened to the child?  The mother?  Did the child or mother ever marry?  If it was a son, what was his occupation? Tell us who you researched and what you found. Start at:http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LIN/bastardycases.html     Lou

Twigmore is in the parish of Manton, north Lindsey. Knowing the Lincolnshire habit of adding an "H" to the front of words, it is possibly Owersby - if pronounced Oursby, just add the H. Both North and South Owersby are in Westwold Deanery, in the Caistor registration district. I see his wife was born in Appleby. There is no other place either beginning with H or O that seems to fit. If you haven't already done so, you might look for their marriage in the free post 1837 marriage index (see below in my signature).

Hi, Missing Lincs,     I know very little about the Suffragette movement in England in the 1910s, but I am aware that it affected almost all places in England, if not the entire Kingdom.  I doubt that we have any list members who were alive back then, but some of you must have ancestors who were involved in the movement.     I've learned that there was a touch of violence in the movement.  Some churches were burned because the Church of England took a position against woman voting.  There were marches and demonstrations.     I know that women got the right to vote in local school board elections first, back around 1840.  Who can direct me to a good history of the movement, particularly in Lincolnshire?  Somehow I sense that the argument at the time was something like, "Boy, you give women the right to vote, the next thing you know the Irish will want it."  All this turmoil and a World War right around the corner!  Interesting times.     The Lincolnshire County Council site has a few sources.     Lou
