This might be of interest to some on the lists. Two of the BRADLEY brothers from Hayfield in Derbyshire married two BRISCOE sisters from Bolton. Norman Briscoe BRADLEY was son of Daniel Ballantine G BRADLEY and Elizabeth Anne BRISCOE who married at St George's Church in Bolton before moving to Kirkdale where Daniel was plumber at the Industrial School.

Both can be used for free at your local LDS family history library. David Armstrong Maylands, Western Australia

Both have pros and cons. FMP is getting some useful sets of data and depends a lot on whether one that you need. They have less fields available for searching in many sets of data like parish records. With censuses you can search Ancestry on first name and perhaps just place of birth. A similar search on FMP will probably fail (not sure if you can search with no surname?).

Some of the Mormon Church's Family History Centres have free access too. You might consider six months with each site: if you buy Family Tree Maker Platinum, it comes with six months' Ancestry membership (which is much cheaper than a direct subscription). At the end of that time - don't forget to cancel your membership - flip over to FMP. Another alternative is to subscribe to FMP but have an occasional month's membership of Ancestry. HTH Kim in Hull

I use both - I find the transcriptions are slightly better on FMP, but I much prefer the Ancestry search engine. It really depends where your research interests are, and what records you need to consult. If just census and GRO indexes, then either is fine... if you want Liverpool parish records for example then it has to be Ancestry. If I has to choose one at the moment would be Ancestry.

Hello Listers. My Great-aunt Sophia Johnston (nee Edwards) left over 4.000 when she died in 1935. There was no will and my grandfather Richard Edwards and his brother Evan John were granted powers of Administration. She and her late husband Joseph Johnston had no children and I presume Richard, John and the other three surviving brothers were the only beneficiaries. This is a bit of a mystery as if they got an equal share, £800 would have been a large sum to my family in 1935 and yet at the end of that year my grandparents could not afford the 16s8d rent out of their £1 per week pension and moved to a cottage without electricity or water, in North Wales However, what I really want to know is whether the money came from her husbands family. From her marriage cert dated 1 Feb 1903, I know that Joseph Johnston age 49 , widower was a baker at 22 West Derby Road, Liverpool and his father was Joseph Johnston (deceased) corn dealer. The 1881 census shows Joseph living at 55 Conyer St. Kirkdale age 26 a shopman in the flour trade with his first wife Lily. (although their cert. of marriage at St. George, Everton of 9 Sep 1878 , shows her as Ellen Elizabeth Walton and he is Joseph Johnston described as a bachelor ,age 34 flour dealer of 68 Lambert Rd. Maybe the census should read 36? I can not find his baptism and there are a number of possible Births so I would be very grateful if some kind soul would look him up in the 1871 and 1861 Regards, Nora

Hello Listers I am interested in trying to locate where my ancestors are buried at. I'm not sure if I am correct but Toxteth Park Cemetery Opened up 1856 Anfield Opened 1863 Everton Opened 1880 Kirkdale Opened 1881 West Derby Opened 1884 Allerton Opened 1909 Bootle Opened up 1919 my question is, Where were people buried at before the opening of Toxteth Park Cemtery? Is there a website with places of cemeteries or churchyards i beleive there called, from before 1856. I would like to know the names of the Cemteries before 1856 and possibly where to find the burials at. Any information appreciated Anthony Jones in the USA thanks
