    3. Hi Karen, Yes it would be great to have this medal reunited with his family, you might try to get in touch with a local Royal Canadian Legion, they might know how to reunite medals to owners famlies, they are very interested in keeping medals with their families.

    3. Hi the Google 'site' command will work on levels lower than http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ For example, say you have an event concerning BARLOW in Liverpool and want to search all Parishes: site:www.lan-opc.org.uk/Liverpool/ Barlow brings up 64 results which is a much easiest list to check. But I notice that some of these records involve a "Barlow Street" rather than a BARLOW. site:www.lan-opc.org.uk/Liverpool/ Barlow -"Barlow Street" removes those records with the text I don't want. Or, I can exclude marriages by using: site:www.lan-opc.org.uk/Liverpool/ Barlow -marriages For Manchester site:www.lan-opc.org.uk/Manchester/ and so on. My Barlows were saddlers (earlier spelling, sadler). So I can specify: site:www.lan-opc.org.uk Barlow "Occupation: Saddler" OR "Occupation: Sadler" (Note the operator OR must be in capital letters) Of course, you can use any other search term you like: know the LDS film number? eg site:www.lan-opc.org.uk Barlow "LDS Film 1657583" Perhaps I am looking for 'the son of' and 'the daughter of' and 'the child of' and 'the daur of' (all terms used in the database): "of Robert Barlow" site:www.lan-opc.org.uk will bring up a list with all those terms. regards

    3. Hi Liz, Our grandparents and great grandparents were not as lilly white as they wanted us to believe. I have one who married three times all the while the other husbands were still alive. Trouble with John and Alice though they had three children in Aussie on those certs. John put his birth place as Ireland on one, Scotland on another and England on the last one and put marriage was in Victoria When the other children were born here in NZ it was before 1881 so there is less info. The children obviously did not know John and Alice were not married until 20 years after the eldest child's birth. For years we were looking for a marriage in Victoria. It was not until the New Zealand Soc. Of Genealogists produced the NZ marriage CD that we discovered the marriage. 20 years later. It is always interesting reading other genealogists problems. In some cases makes your own look a smaller problem. Still always worth putting the problems on the list there is always someone out there reading it and can come up with a suggestion. The old story two heads are better than one. One day you will find the answers. I hope you do. Regards Sue Hello Sue, Your posting initially caught my eye because it was so similar to the story of my 2x great grandmother. Eliza Boardman was b. 1841 in Liverpool and had my great grandmother, Margaret in 1862. The father on the birth certificate shows as Patrick Healey. I found a marriage certificate in 1863 for them so it was actually over a year later after the birth of Margaret that her parents married. I assumed that it was a religious issue as Eliza was CofE and I would strongly imagine that Patrick was Catholic. Anyway, they had another child, John Henry in 1871 and a third, Frederick William in 1873. Curiously, I never see Patrick on any census returns living with the family. Eliza is always shown with her children living with her parents. On the birth certificates of the children, Patrick's occupation is shown as baker. In 1879, Margaret marries and her marriage certificate states that her father Patrick is deceased and that he was a ship's cook. She leaves England a couple of years later with her husband and settles in America. The 1881 census finds Eliza again living with her 2 boys in her parents' home. It shows her as married, but no Patrick in sight. In 1889, Eliza's parents both die and she then leaves England for Australia. On the passage ticket, it shows a William Samuel Burgess, Eliza and her sons, John Henry and Frederick William - all with the last name Burgess. Now all their lives, the boys had the surname Healey, but now that they're traveling to Australia, suddenly their name is Burgess. Nine years later (1898) Eliza and William married privately at a chapel. Eliza put down that she was widowed in 1896. All this while, she and her sons were living with the name Burgess. Only by accident did their descendants find out their name was actually Healey. Evidently Eliza must have found out that her husband, Patrick died back in England and then she married Burgess. And back in 1879, when my great grandmother married, she put that her father was deceased, but I believe she was told that by her mother and that he was really alive until about 1896 when Eliza stated she became widowed. Sorry to give you the whole story, but it reminds me so much of yours. I don't know if you have all the death certificates for the people you are searching for, but I know in Australia they give a lot of information. I found out that Eliza's boys thought she married Burgess way back in England. She must have told them all that their real father was Burgess and no one questioned it. For some reason, she kept them all away from Patrick or maybe he just stayed away. Good luck, Liz

Hi Liz, No one has replied. May be it is one of those ones that's in the too hard basket. I did find a marriage for a John Mc to a Catherine ordered the cert. But being an English cert. didn't tell me anything I didn't know. Ages were right, father and occupation was right so he married there as well. What I really want to do is try to prove that John on the 1851 census and John in Aussie are the same person. I am sure they are but until I can find the wife and children in England some where and John leaving and arriving in Aussie I can't say for sure they are the same person. The wife on the 1851 census is Irish and wondered if she and the children went back to Ireland. But then why does John wait 20 years before he marries Alice Garland here in NZ? My theory is he was Catholic. Obviously he didn't mind living with another woman but his faith strong enough not to marry her. Then 20 years on how did he know his first wife may have died? Did one of his children keep in touch with him some how? Perhaps a family member was keeping him informed. In the Aussie papers I have found the brother to Alice Garland. 1851 he and four other seaman jumped ship. An order for their arrest was put out. Trouble is the papers only mention Peter Garland not the names of the other seaman. My theory for not being able to find John McD on any passenger lists is he worked his way out on a ship as a sailmaker. His occupation in England was a tailor. Easy to change from a tailor to a sailmaker to get to the other side of the world. I wondered if John McD was one of the other seaman that jumped ship with Peter Garland and that is how John met Alice in Aussie. The ship they jumped from was the Montgomery. The order in the papers were 1851. Alice Garland didn't arrive in Aussie until 1854 on the ship the Admiral Boxer which left Liverpool 1854 arrived Melbourne 1854. She and her sister put adds in the Argus papers looking for their brother Peter. I would love to try and find the wife and children either in England or somewhere. Regards Sue PS.

On the 1851 census I have John McDavitt and family living in Birkenhead. By 1854/55 John is in Australia without his wife or children.

What is the nearest poor house to Birkenhead and if they did end up there is there any way I can get a search done of the records? The wife Catherine and the three boys James, John & Daniel are not on any other census records. Believe me I have tried everything. I have also searched the marriage microfiche in case she re-married. I have also checked deaths in Australia for them. Nothing so am sure John jumped on board ship and left her and the children. Though I have not been able to find any passenger lists of John arriving in Australia. In Australia he meets Alice Garland and their first child is born 1856. That family left Australia for New Zealand around 1863. Interesting that John does not marry the second wife in New Zealand until almost 20 years after the first born child in Australia.

    3. The IGI is an Index. It does not contain any records at all. If you have an entry on the IGI you need to check the film and that will give you the record. There may be additional information on the source. This is what the IGI Help file says: Find the source and check the original record. Information in the International Genealogical Index comes from many different sources. To verify the accuracy of the information or to see if the original source contains more information, you may want to check the source if it is listed. To do this: 1. Click on one of the individual's names. 2. Read the Messages section on the IGI record. It contains information about the source. 3. Read the Sources section on the IGI record. It may list either the batch or microfilm number where the information came from. 4. If a film number is listed, click it to go to the Family History Library Catalog and find the film you will need to order. 5. Print the film notes or write down the film number. 6. Go to a family history center and order a copy of the record. 7. Compare the information on the original record to the information on the IGI record. You may have to pay a small fee to order a copy.

    3. HI Sandra I think you have the result already. This sounds like a civil case rather than a criminal prosecution. 'Verdict for the plaintiff' (I presume the true owner of the fabric) is the result and the order of the court is 'immediate execution' ie the fabric in question is delivered to the plaintiff. End of story. 2009/9/22 sandra moffatt <smoffatt2009@hotmail.com>: > > I have an "interesting" ancestor who was taken to court in early 1857 for apparently stealing some fabric that was delivered to her address in error. She was well known to the judge at the time so obviously had done other illegal things in the past. > >
