Thank you John. Not sure I will get to Lincolnshire as much as I would love to but I will have a look art the web site. I was not aware that baptisms were under access restrictions as they dont seem to be in Cumbria and I have looked at them both in a church and at the records office. Thanks for your help.

Lou wrote:- I've seen Epilepsy spelled both ways and I'm not sure which is "correct". The "i" version is likely closer to the Latin or Greek source. ++++++++++++++ Hi Lou, All Epilepsy Foundations in the English speaking world spell it with a "y". While the Oxford Dictionary has the following:- epilepsy Pronunciation: "ep" as in 'lept', "i" as in 'bit', "lep" as in 'lept', "sy" as in 'see' noun [mass noun] a neurological disorder marked by sudden recurrent episodes of sensory disturbance, loss of consciousness, or convulsions, associated with abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Origin: mid 16th century: from French épilepsie, or via late Latin from Greek epile-psia, from epilambanein 'seize, attack', from epi 'upon' + lambanein 'take hold of' See Oxford Dictionaries at - http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/epilepsy Barry

Hello Helen, I am not sure that Registers as late as the period you are looking for will have been lodged with Lincolnshire Archives. I would start by checking with Lincolnshire Archives to see if the hold the Registers http://www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/residents/archives/collections/archive-collec tions/ecclesiastical/parish-registers-and-bishops-transcripts-deposited-at-l incolnshire-archives/ for the period concerned. Then as it is unlikely that indexes have been produced you will probably need to take a trip to Lincoln to examine them. It may be best to check access conditions first as the period covers baptisms of people who could still be alive.

Hi Lou I was interested in your email about epilepsy (we've always spelt it with a "y"). My paternal grandmother was an epileptic. She was born in Norfolk in 1877 and died in Islington, north London, in 1947. I hardly knew her as London was a long way away for us, being in Leicester without a car. I have not known of any other family member with epilepsy and I know it is not always heredity, often being from injuries at birth. I would be interested in finding any records about her. How do I access the Poor Law Records? She may not be in them, though. She was in the millinery trade in the 1891 and 1901 censuses and she was married in 1904 to my grandfather. I have their 1911 census record too. I only know she was epileptic because my mother told me, and that she was relieved that I am not (so am I!).

Hi, Jan,     Yes, I've seen Epilepsy spelled both ways and I'm not sure which is "correct".  The "i" version is likely closer to the Latin or Greek source.  I'm sure there is a language purist on the list to set us straight.     The Poorlaw records are best researched at the local county Archives Office (Library).  We have a good bit of information that has been posted to this mailing list by Anne Cole, some of which I've captured on the web sites for Lincolnshire.  The Poorlaw system was partly dismantled between 1911 and 1929 and finally eliminated in 1946 with the conversion to National Insurance.  With the various privacy laws in place it may be hard to pry up stones laid in the last 100 years.         Lou ________________________________ From: John & Jan Marchant <jjmarchant@optusnet.com.au> To: Louis Mills <louis_mills@att.net>; eng-lincsgen@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, May 2, 2012 12:36 AM Subject: Re: [LIN] Admin note: Epilepsi Hi Lou I was interested in your email about epilepsy (we've always spelt it with a "y").

Hi, Missing Lincs,     I was just going back over old e-mail and saw a note from Anne Cole in February that mentioned Epilepsi.  If epilepsi "runs" in your family, be sure to check the Poorlaw Records in the Archives for those who appear to be missing from the census records.  It wasn't too long ago that epileptic seizures were considered a sign of mental disorders.  Even today, some people make the same mistake and are embarrassed to have a relative with epilepsy.     I was trained a long time ago in how to provide "first aid" to an epileptic or anyone having a seizure.  And I've had to use that training a few times.  People can have seizures for a variety of reasons:  high body temperature, drug interactions, stroke, etc.  There typically isn't any "medical" response, just making sure that the person doesn't hurt themselves against nearby furniture and "shooing away" the curious onlookers.  People in seizures can be in great pain as a result of strong muscle contractions or injuries from falling, but they sometimes come out of a seizure without any knowledge of the event.  It is important to evaluate their ability to move and stand before you leave them, and sometimes professional medical help is needed.  So I always ask one person to stay in case I need someone to call for an ambulance and send another off to get a glass of cold water (it keeps them busy!).  The post-event evaluation is always the important part.  You can't stop the seizure - it's the brain's reaction to a cascade of firing neurons - but you can calm the person and reassure them.     I live with an epileptic dog - not something I had planned - and he does well on his medication.  But if I had epilepsy in my family (and it often is an inherited trait), I would scour the Poorlaw records for ancestors put in the care of the Poorlaw guardians or in an asylum.  It was a lot easier in the 1800s to commit someone then than it is now.  Now we just give one of two drugs and send people home.  Alas, my poor dog will be on the drug for life, as are some humans.  But don't worry, we won't label you if you have an epileptic ancestor.  We'll judge you by YOUR performance before we commit you.     Lou (list admin.)
