Hello everyone: Please find transcribed below a letter written by Mr. J. Dixon during his voyage on the Columbus from Whitby to Quebec in April 1832. I would be interested in hearing from any descendants of Mr. Dixon as a subsequent letter describes William Harrison - my great great great grandfather - as a distant relation. This letter was written to Mr. George Dixon of Darlington. The following is the letter: To: Mr. R. Frankland, Whitby On board Ship Columbus, April 16, 1832 - Sailed out of Whitby this evening, a few were sick, my sister and children were of the number. 17th, A fine day and fair wind, sailed three and four miles an hour, several sick, my wife and Jane a little sick, John, Breckon and myself well. 18th, Strong winds from the south, ran nine and ten miles per hour, my sister, her husband, and children, very sick, we went through the Firth about six o'clock this evening, the sea ran high, so that we could not get a pilot, I was on deck when a sea struck us and come over our bulwark, the ship listed so much to one side that ten or twelve men fell down as though they were shot, but were not much worse. 19th, Little wind and cloudy. 20th, A heavy gale, had to take all the sails in, strike top-gallant mas's lay the ship to, and let her drive (in the Western Ocean) most of the people very sick, some cried "If I had known this, I would have begged our bread from door to door before I would have come," this and such-like were the language of a great many who were overpowered with sickness - our John a little sick, - Breckon holds it out well, my wife becomes useful to her sister and family, the whole of them being very sick, - for my own part I am as well both in body and mind as I was on the day we started, for which I am truly thankful to the Lord. We have a public prayer meeting in the evening, preaching a'so on the Lord's day, but only a few attend, some on board laugh and mock at every thing sacred. 21st, The gale a little abated, the people a little revived. Sundan, 22nd, Prayer meeting in the morning, William Outhard preached in the evening. 23rd, The sea ran high, but better weather towards evening. 24th, My sister's youngest child very ill in an inflammation of the breast. 25th, A very fine day, the sea smooth, and the people wonderfully revived, they appeared like a new company, all full of spirits and activity. 26th, The weather fine, all the beds ordered on deck. 27th & 28th, Fine weather and fair wind. Sunday, 29th, Fair wind, going six and seven miles an hour, no hopes of my sister's child, Margaret Headlam has got a son this morning about two o'clock, they have named him William Columbus Headlam. 30th, A young woman fell and deck and flesh-rent her leg. May 1st, My sister's eldest son whilst standing on deck, the ship rolling very much at the time, fell down the hatch-way into the hold, but, through the mercy and providence of God, was not much worse. 2nd, Squally weather, with rain; three o'clock this afternoon my sis er's child died. 3rd, About seven o'clock this evening the child was committed to a watery grave. 4th, A fair wind. 5th, A contrary wind. 6th, The wind still contrary, William Hugill preached to the satisfaction of most who heard him. 7th, Contrary wind, a light ship very near us. 8th, Still contrary. 9th, Fair wind, went six and seven miles an hour, spoke a brig. 10th, A fine day, little or no wind, all beds on deck. 11th, Calm. 12th, Fair wind, four and five miles an hour. Sunday 13th, Strong fair wind, William Hutchinson's youngest child very ill, a very large iceberg about two hundred yards off us, a great number of birds about it. 14th, About two o'clock this morning William Hutchinson's child died, and was committed to the deep in the evening about seven o'clock. 15th, We are now upon the banks of Newfoundland, bought some cod-fish and brandy from one of the fishing vessels. 16th, Fair wind, five and six miles an hour. 17th, Little wind. 18th, Died this morning about seven o'clock, John Dobson, a boy about fourteen years of age, he was a nephew to Thomas Blackburn. 19th, John Dobson, this afternoon about four o'clock, was lowered into his watery grave. Sunday 20th, A fine morning, but little wind; we are expecting to see the land every day. 21st, A fine day and fair wind, ran 180 miles in twenty-four hours. 22nd, Cape Race in sight, it was covered with snow. 23rd, We are not in the Gulf with about twenty sail of ships in sight; no doubt you will wish to know how we like our new situation; the water was much better, and the smells not so bad, as I thought they would be, but the conduct of the people were ten times worse than I ever expected; the peaceable were much annoyed by the abominable and filthy language of several on board; it was no uncommon thing for them to be cursing, swearing, and drunk, until twelve and one o'clock in the morning, and if any thing was said to them, they were much worse; it has given me a greater hatred to sin than ever, and a greater love to God and his people; I would say pray for us, that our lot may be cast among those that love and fear God. 24th, Fine day but calm. 25th, Still calm, spoke several vessels that had passengers on board. 26th, Strong fair wind up the river, by four o'clock in the afternoon arrived within twenty-four miles of Quebec, where we had to anchor with many other ships until our captain and doctor went on shore to the doctor's station for the purpose of filing a bill of health; we rode until seven o'clock next night. Previous to our getting under weigh, Mr. Campion's new brig, the Regina, arrived. Sunday 27th, By ten o'clock this morning, we reached Quebec, one Mrs. Shirinton got her bed this morning, we expect to proceed up the river to-morrow, we heard that Mr. Mewburn was at Quebec, we have had as fine a passage and any ship we hear of, for which we feel very thankful, we are all doing well, I doubt not but you have prayed for us, and I hope that you and my friends in Whitby will still lift up your hearts to God for us, that He may still guide us in the way we should go, both temporally and spiritually; I hope you will excuse this scrawl, for I am a poor hand with a bad pen and bad paper, and what is worse, my knee for a writing desk; please to give our kind love to Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher, my cousin Ralph Speedy, and G. Lockey; it would be tedious to mention all my friends by name but you will be so kind as to give your best respects to them all. I conclude with my prayer to God that he may bless you and yours. J. Dixon Thank you, Michael Harrison Toronto, CANADA

Hi all (hoping there are some of you out there) I am new to Yorkshire genealogy, having explored other lines areound Staffordshire & Cheshire (my own) and Cambridgshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Nottinghamshire, Hampshire  and Berkshire (my husbands) for some years. Letting the grass grow under their feet was not something HIS family did, so now the explorations turns to Yorkshire.... I am having difficulty trying to fathom out old & new county 'ridings' and which categories Malton and Scarborough fit in..... I would welcome any advice about researching in these 'towns' with regard to census records, church records and possibly probate wills. I am looking for the ancestors of Harry DWYER, son of Joseph who married Mary Ann PRIEST 1882 in Scarborough (registration district) Any general (or event specific) advice would be great. Jane Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, UK

It should be noted that I am not researching the name Mais. I only looked at the BMD site as a courtesy to try to help. The BMD site adds data every few months. Cheking back periodically is an option if the other suggestions are not practical for this researcher. Nancy Vogt My web page: http://community.webtv.net/nanspage

Richard, Howard & Nancy, Have you checked your local (or not so local, but nearby) public libiary, for English "GRO"/ "St Catherines House" BDM index on microfishe, for failing that if you have a Mormon Church nearby they may have a Family History Centrer attached (you can check FHC locations on the LDS site), and they almost certainly will have the indices, and don't worry church members are specificly not allowed to "evangalise" at FHC's, and many of the FHC staff are not church members but volunteer fellow genealogists putting something back into our hobby by staffing the centre. This is for all free.

Hi If anyone has access to the baptism register for St Hilda's, I'd really appreciate a quick look-up pls. Ann Elizabeth ("Annie") DIXON, born 10 April 1871 at Whitby. Her mother is named on the birth certificate as Mary Jane DIXON and the name and occupation of the father is blank.

In July 1901, 18 year old Thomas GIBSON drowned in the River Swale. He was a son of Arthur GIBSON of Brompton Lodge and apprenticed to Nathaniel RUSSELL, grocer, of Northallerton. The newspaper account of the funeral lists the following people as "chief mourners", which I take to be members of the wider family. While I have been able to identify some, if anyone is able to give me further information on any of these people, I would be very grateful. Mr & Mrs A GIBSON (parents) Mr J.W. GIBSON (brother) Misses GIBSON & Emma GIBSON (sisters & sister-in-law, I think) Messrs Alfred, Fred & Arthur GIBSON (brothers) Mr & Mrs William GIBSON (uncle & aunt) Messrs George, Anderson, & Robt GIBSON (uncles) Mrs Warren (aunt) of Scarborough Miss M FOGGIN (cousin) of Bullamoor Mr Wm. GIBSON, Thirsk Miss Jenny FOGGIN, Northallerton Miss Carry Dale; Mrs Cooper, Knayton Mrs Mattison, Thirkleby Regards Ailsa Petrie -- Hamilton New Zealand

Good morning, just wonder if anyone can fill in the blanks on my 4xgg, Robert Holmes,b1781,goldsborough,Lythe? first, I have him married ? to widdow Hannah Petty, some time after 1824,and residing in church st Whitby.but I also found an entry of marriage for Robert Holmes and Mary Stonehouse 2nd Feb 1807 Lythe parish,by banns,witness Mathew Dobson and Thomas Eland,could this be the same Robert? if anyone has any info on either I would love to hear from you. Trevor Toronto,canada

Howard & Nancy The fact that you can't find a death on FreeBMD doesn't mean it wasn't registered. The coverage of deaths between 1871 & 1881 on FreeBMD is far from complete so far - if you follow the "Information" button on the site, you can find a page of statistics, which shows graphs of coverage for each year. The best coverage is 1874 at about 85%, and 1879-1881 have not reached 5%, so there are a lot of transcriptions still to be done. The 1837online site would be a possibility, but to cover a 10 year period would cost you at least £4.

Hello, I do not think this is my Sarah SEERY ne Hodgson. she was my GGGrandmother. My family are below. Ainderby Steeple 1861. John SEERY, head, marr, 32, bricklayer master, b.Ainderby Steeple. Sarah SEERY, wife,25, b.Nafferton. formerly Sarah Hodgson William SEERY, son, 5, b. Ainderby Steeple. my GGrandfather Elizabeth SEERY, dau, 2, b. Ainderby Steeple. 1861 William Seery John SEERY'S Father Stepmother and sister Mary Ann SEERY William SEERY, head,marr, 63, bricklayer master employing 3 men, b.Ireland. Ann SEERY, wife, marr, 70, b.Bedale. Mary Ann SEERY, dau, Unm, 28, dressmaker, b. Ainderby Steeple. Ainderby Steeple 1871 census. John SEERY, head, marr, 42, bricklayer, b. Ainderby Steeple. Sarah SEERY, wife, marr, 35, b. Nafferton. William SEERY, son, Unm, 15, bricklayer, b. Ainderby Steeple. Elizabeth SEERY, dau, 12, sch, b. Ainderby Steeple. Richard SEERY, son, 8, sch, b. " " Mary Ann SEERY, dau, 5, sch, b. " " Sarah Ann SEERY, dau, 3, b. " " John SEERY, son, 5 months, b. " ". Something very strage happened to the family in 1881. I need to look into it. Sarah was living in Bradford with all these children pluss another born in Stockton under the name of Sarah Stewart. I checked the additional child born in Stockton and she was registered under SEERY. There was also a Grandchild in the house born in Bradford. The child was not under the name of SEERY in the Census and the child was registered under SEERY the illigitimate son of Elizabeth SEERY aged 12 in the 1871 Census. Elizabeth was working in a Hotel in Ripon and John SEERY Sarah's legal husband was in Yarm in lodgings. He was a builder and I know they moved around. I want to look at the fiche as it is possible it has been wrongly transcribed. Thank you for writing back, sincerely, Jacqui White

Hello I also have a Sarah Elizabeth Hodgson who married Henry Barker in 1876 and had 4 children, John Cail, Clara, Allan and George Henry. They lived in the Stokesley area.

This is the film number for Monumental Inscriptions St. Mary Magdalene Yarm 1741 - 1900 that I ordered from the LDS library. 1564061 There were 3 pgs with grave numbers, but I feel there was a page missing as grave number 217 - 240 are not there, so if anyone can help with this I would be grateful. Cleveland FHS have Yarm cemetery records 1884 - 1984 but I don't know if there is a plan of the cemetery,the book I looked at at the Genealogical Society of Victoria(Melb.) had only index of names. Hope this helps someone else ou there. Regards Nancy. _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail is now available on Australian mobile phones.

I have a Sarah Hodgson born Nafferton East Yorks daughter of Richard Hodgson. She was at Sowber Hall at the time of her marriage in 1855 to John SEERY a builder from Ainderby Steeple. They married in Kirby Wiske. sincerely, Jacqui White

Hello, If anyone should see a John SEERY burried in Yarm would they kindly let me know. John SEERY was born in 1828. There were two John SEERY'S baptised in the same year 1828. One was the son of William SEERY who lived in Ainderby Steeple he was baptised in Brough Hall Catholic Chapel Catterick and is my family line. The other John SEERY was baptised in Aiskew John son of John. I think he is most probably related to my family but I have not been able to trace Father or son after the baptism they seemed to vanish. sincerely, Jacqui White

I checked for a death of a Frederick Mais on the "Free BMD" site and he is not listed for the time frame you mentioned. The only deaths listed so far are a Wm. Mais age 24, York, in the Sept Qtr of 1873 and Richard Colston Mais age 75, Keynsham, in the June Qtr of 1883. The only Frederick Mais listed was age 90, Gloucester, in the March Qtr of 1902 Nancy Vogt My web page: http://community.webtv.net/nanspage
