Special thanks to Anne Cole and the transcriptions team for their help with a brick wall.   Eliza Skipworth was born after the 1851 census, at Halton Holegate. There is apparantly no surviving census return for Halton Holegate in 1861, so she is not recorded with her family. In the 1871 census she is a 19 year old servant, living away from home, in Spilsby, born Halton Holegate.   Now the marriage index tells me that her father was Owen Skipworth so I am in no doubt where to place her, although there were a number of Skipworth families in and around Halton Holegate.   Apart from purchasing the birth certificate (not considered as she belongs to a remote branch of the family), the only other possibility was FreeReg (assuming she was baptised).  I wonder if the FreeReg coordinators are aware that the missing census records make Halton Holegate parish records particularly valuable?   I have digressed rather from the original intention of sending a big thank you to the Index team, and hope the feedback will be of interest.   Mary in NZ ________________________________ From: "eng-lincsgen-request@rootsweb.com" <eng-lincsgen-request@rootsweb.com> To: eng-lincsgen@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, 27 March 2012 8:00 PM Subject: ENG-LINCSGEN Digest, Vol 7, Issue 155 ----- Forwarded Message ----- Today's Topics:   1.

What delightful feedback Mary. I am pleased for you. I also hope that the marriages of widows in the early years will help those whose female ancestors were first married before 1837 when fathers' names weren't given. There are a great number of them, including some 70 year olds. I have begun to make a note when the bride or groom are elderly as it is often forgotten that people did marry, perhaps for the first time, in old age.

Thank you, Anne Cole, for reminding me of something.  One of my co-workers *way back before I retired) often complained of people showing up in his office with no paperwork, not even a valid identification.  Now, it's not yet law where I live that a person MUST carry ID at all times, but I do know a country where it is required.  I'm often surprised that the government hasn't put a microchip in each of us so they can keep track.  Hmmm, maybe they already have! Anyway, my co-worker's complaint was focused on young people who haven't yet trained themselves to keep records.  Some just threw away bills and payroll records, thinking that they didn't need them and could, if needed, drop by the bank to pay their credit card bill.  They'd know, they think, when they're in credit card trouble because the card won't work any longer. Now, it's a mindset I've only seen once.  I know a young woman who lost her home simply because she couldn't "organize" herself to pay her bills on time. I raise this issue because you've got to look everywhere when doing family history research.  It isn't enough to depend on baptism and marriage records alone.  Learn to browse thru those poorlaw records, the census records, even confirmation and tax records.  And just because I tell you who your ancestors were, you'd better spend some time to prove it.  And keep some kind of record.  Some of you make copies of everything and that's OK.  But it's also OK to say, "I found this in the 1850 census of Zircon in Poobah county, Ref: K-1764".  Sound like a lot of work?  Tough.  Do it.  This is a hobby for organized people. Now, go write your Will so that some future researcher will be able to verify some of your relatives.     Lou (list admin.)

Dear Peter, Fay, Linda and Margaret My SHARP(E)s tend to be confined to the Wolds area, at least since Robert SHARP, born 1737 who married Mary HOLDEN, born 1731 ?Spigster. They were married at West Ashby where they lived and had their family. The only child I have recorded is my direct ancestor, Henry SHARP but I expect there were others. In my line there are then alternate Roberts and Henrys until my grandfather, Herbert Allen SHARP (SHARPE on his birth certificate) was born at East Keal in 1874. He lived with my mother and I in Leicester, my father having died in WWII when I was 4 years old, so Grandpa was like a father to me. This SHARP family is on the IGI and only goes back to the first Robert SHARP above. Before that I have no idea where their ancestors lived and they could all connect with yours some way back. That's a good idea, Fay, keeping the unrelated SHARP/Es you find. It will be great when you match some of them up!

The Apostrophe does work with both but if autocorrect is left running the problem will still occur.

Dear " Sharp/e Family Listers", To add to the confusion there were so many "Sharp/e's " throughout Lincolnshire that many are related including my mob, but must add...caution should be taken at all times with this Surname as I have gone up the wrong tree a couple of times until I had Primary Records to validate my work.. I have researched my lot back to Dorrington, Lincs to William Sharp/e born Circa. 1740 who married Dorothy Phillips ( akas Phalaps" born Circa 1730....and am still finding more...What I have done in my Ancestry Tree is make up a File of all the unrelated "Sharp/e's " and as I do my research in hopes of matching some of those Un-related to my lot... Hope that makes sense.. My GG Grandparents Edward & Susannah Sharp ( nee Plowright) sent two of their sons Jonathan Plowright and Edward to a private Boys school in Bourne... refer 1841 UK Census in Bourne... Cheers for now. Fay Queesland.

MGC: Putting the apostrophe in only works with numbers. This is not the shortest method, but at least it does work, and you don't have to change any other settings !!! Do exactly the following: In Excel, type BALLANCE Do not press enter yet. Your cursor is flashing at the end of the word BALLANCE. Press shift and Home keys together to highlight the word BALLANCE. Press control key and C key together as though you are to copy the letters BALLANCE. Now just press the enter key.

thanks for confirming Mick - looks like LDS have mis-transcribed.... Very pleased to hear I wasn't have a senior moment being unable to find them on the LtP site! :-) cheers! Lynda

I beg to differ the leading apostrophe works with both text and numbers. It allows Excel to treat any letters or characters as text and normal text functionality can be used on the data. In any event I believe that Anne has now solved her problem so its all academic.

Hi list I have the NBI 3rd Ed which notes a burial date of 23 Feb 1786 for Nath'l Cartwright - this has been transcribed/checked by the LHFS. I also located an LDS entry which states his burial date was 23 Mar 1786 so an obvious discrepancy exists. I have tried to look up the parish registers on Lincs To The Past website without any success - tricksy wee site! Is anyone able to point me in the direction of where I might be able to double check which of these dates is correct please? Cheers Lynda Christchurch NZ
