    1. [N'Yorks] new listers - DWYER/PRIEST
    2. 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
