Hi,sorry I just found out I have been following back the wrong John Crow.The one I should have been following was born Thorpe and wife Mary born Welton le Wold around 1795 on 1871 and 1841 census.Now I can't fin d either one. Oh well,will have to try again Pat Ontario Canada

Mary Ann North daughter of Thomas and Lucy North married William Dawson 15 Jun 1818 St James Church, Louth, Lincolnshire...there are so many North families I wonder if John Crow is any relation to Richard Crow who married Mary Ann Hewson, the Hewson North families are very interwoven!

Bill Have a look at http://www.barrow-upon-humber.co.uk/ There is a contact detail on that web site. They might even be interested in the photos you have..

I would like to make contact with somebody familiar with Barrow on Humber. My Great Great Aunt Charlotte ROE lived in Thornton Street, Barrow on Humber for most of her life. I have some photos that might have been taken in the back garden in the period 1900-1925 The windows of the house are distinctive - Lincolnshire Sash. Using Google Streetview I have found that there are some cottages in Thornton Street with that type of window albeit modern replacements (around Hope Cottage in the images) What I would like to do is to confirm my hunch that the photos were taken there. One is taken early 1900s and shows a chhild on a trike with metal rimmed wheels - no tyres. The other 2 are taken around 1920 (no later than 1925) showing what I believe to be my grandmother and her sister taking turns to sit on a motor bike with a Lincolnshire registration CT6769. If there is somebody who can help me I can E-mail the photos direct. Looking forward to hearing from you. Bill Deverell

For what it's worth Lou,  my wife's Uncle joined the Royal Navy in 1929, and served through out the China seas including the Yanksee evacuation of Peking, until WW2. He was a stoker, and finished up a Warrant Officer, serving on many different war ships, including Battleships and Destroyers ,of all the ships that he served on, it was the only ship that he served on, that was lost during the War, H.M.S. Grove, that was sank in the med. on convoy duty to Malta in June 1942, he was only on board the Grove as a relief, because they were short of  a Warrant Officer stoker, and his own posting was in Dock, on repairs. I have all of his sevice history, that I managed to look up, for my wife sake.    Bazza  ________________________________ From: Louis Mills <louis_mills@att.net> To: Eng Lincsgen <eng-lincsgen-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, 10 April 2012, 23:19 Subject: [LIN] Admin note: Shipwrecks Hi, Missing Lincs,     I'm sure you've noticed that the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's sinking is being celebrated this month in a variety of ways.  It's sad that this ship became an iconic symbol of so many things:  Corporate arrogance, engineering "blindness", failure to appreciate danger, etc.  Even "class struggle".  We learned so much from that disaster, but there seem times when we haven't applied the lessons well.     I myself am tired of hearing about RMS Titanic.  Not because I'm not sympathetic to all the people who lost their lives or loved ones, but because so many other ships and lives were lost in the last 200 years and many never get a centennial celebration, let alone a mention.  In Lincolnshire, we lost many ancestors at sea.  Most on fishing vessels, many in combat in WWI and WWII, some from floods and others went missing and are probably listed as "person found in the river, drowned" and buried in an unmarked grave.  We've had dead French and Dutch sailors wash up on our beaches.  They deserve a moment of silence and respect.     So, if you've lost a Lincolnshire relative at sea, tell us their story.  Let's honor our own, too.             Lou ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ENG-LINCSGEN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

G'day Lou Excellent idea for everyone to make a will When we came to Australia in 1962 we eventually - before 1968 made a will which said If Ben and I died our 3 children at that time (3 more born later) would be sent back to Lincs to Ben's sister Sylvia We had no relatives that we knew of in Au. Found out last year that My Grandfathers brother Arthur Charles RAWLINSON was in Au and died in 1966 in Warrambool Victoria Never met him -Wish people would pass on more information Bridget DRAPER/WILKINSON Southend South Australia 5280 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Louis Mills" <louis_mills@att.net> To: <eng-lincsgen-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, April 13, 2012 2:16 AM Subject: [LIN] Dog park - part 1 My rules for will writing: Keep it simple.

Hi Ruth You say he married in 1848 and his parents were listed as Peregrine BANNISTER & Ann SYMPSON of Lincolnshire Are you sure as it would be the first I have seen with any more than the fathers name and occupation, or was it another record ? Charles birth would be before civil registration started in 1837 so you need to rely on Parish registers (any events before 1837 are unlikely to record the birth date, Baptism is most likely, although some do record the birth date it was not so common) You may not be aware that many Lincolnshire Parish records can be viewed online here http://www.lincstothepast.com They are not indexed so require working through page by page Some have bookmarked points where others have added page details, Gosberton is one of those you will be pleased to hear So try a search for Gosberton Marriages 1817 Where you will find :- Gosberton Parish Records Peregrine BANNISTER a Widower and Ann SYMPSON a Spinster were married in this Church by Banns this 14th April 1817 By me Jno CALTHROP Curate Both signed witnesses Thos COLE & Mary KIMBERLEY & Thomas FOX And in the 1819 Baptisms same Parish Gosberton Parish Records Sept 12th 1819 Charles son of Peregrine and Ann BANNISTER abode Gosberton fathers occupation Victualler Minister J CALTHROP? And there was a Peregrine BANNISTER buried 21st January 1822 at St Peter & St Paul Gosberton Age at death 58 I have no doubt there may be more BANNISTER events which may shed light on your family It was no surprise to see Peregrine was a Widower given his age when he remarried in 1817 Unfortunately as a Victualler he may have moved around a fair bit, but there is a chance he stayed in one place so I would search through the PRs to see if you can find more on his first wife, or any other children Did his widow remarry after he died perhaps ?

Ruth, Have you tried the 1841 Census? Also, you should order the marriage certificate directly from the GRO (General Registration Office) and you will see the fathers' names and professions Richard Brown Member of Lincs FHS Sent from my iPad On 12 Apr 2012, at 16:51, "Ruth Meloche" <rmeloche6@cogeco.ca> wrote: > Helo: > > > > I am new to this list and am seeking help in locating information about > Charles Bannister's parents.

Helo: I am new to this list and am seeking help in locating information about Charles Bannister's parents. Charles was born in 1819 in Lincolnshire and married an Elizabeth Scotney in 1848 in Huntingdon. It lists his father as Peregrine Bannister and his mother as Ann Sympson from Lincolnshire. I need to know Charles's parents birth dates etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Ruth - Canada

The other experience I had at the dog park involves a friend of mine, Gail, who I hadn't seen in about a year.  She is committed in her life's passions to rescuing wolves.  Wild wolves who have become pests and who managed to get trapped rather than shot.  She takes them in if she has room, tames them, exercises them and shows them off to school children.  We talked some years ago about her level of commitment because there are all kinds of regulations she must meet, costs she must endure and restrictions she has to put up with.  But it is her passion and we, her friends, help in what small ways we can. She brought her wolves for us to see.  She is not allowed to let them into the area where the dogs are, but the wolves are very tame, like being petted and like greeting the other dogs.  It was the first time I had seen a wolf outside of an enclosure (I have seen some in the wild in Alaska, from a distance).  "Norman" is a grey mountain wolf, about 140 pounds, very docile and quite happy to be around humans.  "Red" is a red wolf, somewhat smaller, who apparently likes to drag Gail around at the end of a leash.  He is less interested in humans but not aggressive in any way.  Gail likes to "socialize" the wolves around people so that both species get to know each other better. Her level of commitment is amazing.  I have comforted her during one wolf's decline and death, others have stepped in and exercised the wolves when Gail was taking the sick one to a veterinarian, etc.  She reminds me of the Iditarod mushers whom I have known. Find a passion, set your limits and commit.  Let's get that family tree together for each of you.  Do it now.     Lou (list admin.)

I take two of my dogs to a dog park just about every other day.  Those of you who do something similar know it is an odd social environment.  We know each other by our dogs' names.  But I am apparently the "resident expert" on probate and wills. I must say, why are you all afraid of writing a will?  These dog people are asking me about their parents' estates, but none of THEM have written a will yet.  Don't plan to die?  How did that work for your ancestors? My rules for will writing:  Keep it simple.  Don't use it as a weapon to punish your children.  Don't try to buy someone's enduring love with favoritism.  If you have favorites, use a different vehicle for showing it.  Keep the will simple.  It will make Probate simple and fast.  You write the will once and put it away.  Don't try to add something to it later, the court will ignore it. Fact is, most of you don't really need a will, legally.  But it makes probate so much easier.  Please do it within the next 30 days.     Lou (list admin.)

Hi, Can anyone tell me how I can order a newspaper article. I believe that it was in the Stanford Mercury. I have been told that the date was 14 June 1844. The article that I am looking for concerns Thomas Lowe and is about an Inquest. He lived in Bilsby I am also looking for an article about a younger Thomas Lowe. He apparently stole a sheep.He was transported to Tazmania for 15 years of hard labor. The article would be about the same time. or at least in 1844. He also was from Bilsby. Of the two articles the first is the most important to me. I particularly want the newspaper article I am trying to find an address for whoever might have the article/s. and the cost for ordering. It can be an email copy of the article. Velma VJSpringer@aol.com
