Hi I wonder if anyone can help me. I am searching for my wifes great grandmother who was born Margaret Flaherty in 1841 in Warrington but her family later moved to Windle Lancs . She married Charles Edward Winstanley in 1879 in Prescot Lancs, they had six children together, the last of which was born in 1890. I am unable to find any trace of her in subsequent censuses after 1881. Family rumours say she left Charles but I am unable to trace her. Does this ring a bell with anybody. Many Thanks Terry Bostock

Gday Pam, Thank you for your efforts. I picked the Will information on Will Search Lanc,s and it goes on to say that it came from"Original Wills A-Z "and that it is on FHL British Film 89835 but when i tried to obtain this film at the LDS i could not find it.

Hi Nancy The two references you have are for the General Register Office in Southport and the local Liverpool Register Office neither of which you can access without purchasing the certificate(s). They are probably the same couple and both certificates should be identical as the local register office forwards a copy of each registration to the GRO each quarter. If you do wish to purchase a copy then I would suggest you order it from the GRO as Liverpool are many weeks behind. Another possibility is to see if someone can do a look up for the marriage in the church records. These may be at the Liverpool Records Office.

Woody, Look it up in the record office burial register first as you have a death date and a cemetery, to find the section number and grave number. Even with those the search for a headstone may not be easy.

Hello everyone I have just been informed by the Records office that Jessie Graham I have been searching for is buried in Frankby Cemetrery, Apparently there was a notice in the Liverpool echo dated 24 December stating that the Internment would be at Frankby Cemetery of Saturday next. Jessie Graham died on the 21 December 1941.

Dear Family Historian, Thank you for registering on the 1911census.co.uk website. In this, the first of our update e-mails, we?ll examine the background to the project and explain why the census is being released early. We?ll also run through the exciting new features that make this census more insightful than its predecessors. It?s three years early As you?re probably already aware, from 2009 the information contained in the 1911 census will be released, in batches, in the form of both high-quality digital images and fully searchable transcriptions, online. Thanks to a ruling by the Information Commissioner the census is being released (bar the withholding of some sensitive information) three years earlier than its expected 100 year closure period. This is great news for family historians, and so too is the news that findmypast.com, the market leader in online genealogy, is managing the project. A giant of genealogical data The 1911 census is gargantuan in stature: in its physical form it occupies two kilometres of shelving at The National Archives, or, for the analogically minded, that?s the combined length of 200 double-decker buses - though assuredly the census holds more people. There are 36,070,492, in fact, and among them are the forebears of family historians the world over. Invaluable new information As with previous censuses the 1911 census shows the name, age, gender, and marital status of each person, as well as detailing their occupation and birthplace. But for the first time ever the following information is also included: a.. Details of nationality b.. Duration of current marriage c.. How many children have been born to that marriage - including children no longer living at home and those who died d.. Details of the precise branch of a profession or trade an individual worked in. For instance, whether a carpenter worked in a colliery, a ship works, or was a house carpenter and joiner e.. Household schedules have survived so we can see our ancestors' own handwriting, complete with any unsolicited additional comments they might have made First UK census in colour 1911 will be the first ever UK census to be scanned in colour, making its images far sharper and more faithful to the original document than those of any that has preceded it. Spread the word 1911census.co.uk will be, at launch and for some considerable time after, the only place to access the 1911 census online. If you have friends or colleagues who share your interest in family history, then be sure to tell them to register on the site so that they don?t miss out on the launch. Between now and the 2009 launch we?ll be sending you regular updates and imparting some useful tips and background information to ensure you get the most from this exciting new census.

Hi Pete No I have the problem all day and night on this machine. However I have had a go on my laptop and I am having no problems so I am now convinced it is my Internet Security set up. As I said - have had an update recently and I think that's the cause. Investigation required or a reload of my security!
