Admin, Sorry to send to the list but the admin address is not on the digest. The Manchester and Lancashire digest lists (one list owner) have been able to reinstate the clickable subject lines in the attachment panel. Can this be done here please? It is a pain to have to scroll the whole digest to read an interesting posting. Many thanks, Eric MILLWARD. Attachments to this message .... 0.

Hi, The Cleobury Registration District also includes parishes in Worcester. I couldn't see a probable entry in the 1841 Census for Thomas in Shropshire, but there is a possibility listed in Worcester:- Class: HO107; Civil Parish: Lindridge; County: Worcestershire; Enumeration District: 8; Page: 22; Line: 12; Thomas Wildsmith abt 1839 Elizabeth Wildsmith abt 1814 In 1851 there is also a possible entry for Thomas:- Class: HO107; Piece: 2087; Folio: 531; Page: 20; Thomas Wildsmith abt 1839 born Baton, Worcestershire, Visitor Syston Leicestershire ( Baton is probably BAYTON which is in the Cleobury Registration District ) Note that Lindridge is only 2 miles from Bayton If you obtain the Birth and Marriage Certificates listed on FreeBMD, then you can confirm his parents and marriage ( Marriages Sep 1859 Batty Nancy Leeds 9b 414 Wildsmith Thomas William Leeds 9b 414 ) This looks like the couple in 1861:- Class: RG9; Piece: 3372; Folio: 16; Page: 25 Nancy Wildsmith 44 Thomas W Wildsmith 24 Elizabeth Wilson 74 John Wilson 10 Joseph Wilson 8 Susannah Wilson 28 HTH Best wishes, Phil Ridgway Bob Wilesmith wrote: > Hi new to this list but seeking data on members of the Wildsmith family as I have a birth of an Thomas William Wildsmith Cleobury in June 1839 Free BDM 18,36 any would like to establish his parents Thomas apparently married in 1859 in Leeds to an Nancy Batty. > > Regards Bob Wilesmith > NSW Australia > > > ==== ENG-SHROPSHIRE-PLUS Mailing List ==== > List archives can found at ~ > Searchable ~ http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl?list=ENG-SHROPSHIRE-PLUS > Threaded ~ http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/ENG-SHROPSHIRE-PLUS > > ============================== > View and search Historical Newspapers.

Have a look at www.midlandspubs.co.uk/ It is back up and operating again, I see. It has a genealogy forum again. If you are interested in ones around Ironbridge I can send you a large attachment, which goes into greater details, for that area. Also a kind lady Sue from igca has put some photos of Ironbridge Gorge area on line. If you find other info on Station hotel in Ladywood, or Bath Tavern in Bath Lane(Ironbridge), I would be interested in these(also Hope + Anchor in Stourport), as my folk used to own them in the 19th century.

Dear All UD in this context normally means 'Urban District', in the same way that you will also see Atcham RD for Rural District. Urban and rural district councils were created by legislation in 1894 and earlier. However there were also predecessor bodies in various forms. What intrigues me is that this implies there was a Frankwell Urban District Council, separate to the Borough of Shrewsbury. Is that true?
