Dear Graham, Thank you very much for your reply., Do you know by any chance the names of the children of Sampson and Phoebe?. I have not got very far into this side of my genealogy, My greatgrandmother Eliza was the daughter of Sampson Bennet and Phoebe but I only found one Sampson and Phoebe marriage that was about the right time and she was Mathers. I have not proved it yet. Any information you can give me I will be grateful. Jean

A number of Listers (73 to date) have written to me concerning meassages sent containing a virus. In all cases where the person is another Lister I've followed it up and found all systems to be clear. The main thing about these Multi Mailer viruses is that they spoof addresses ie. they take all addresses from an infected persons address book, then carry out a mailing using spoofed addresses. DON'T post to the lists saying that so and so has sent me a virus, they most probably haven't. You can't "catch" a virus from mail sent by Rootsweb, everything is plain text only You've paid all that cash for a shiny new computer and then won't use AV software because of the cost. Chances are that you won't be using it for too long! Next is mail delays amd slow web pages. The Worlds mail is delayed at present due to a worm that has attacked Microsoft SQL servers. You may find that replies appear before questions depending on where you are and which ISP you are using. More details are at :- http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/internet/01/25/internet.attack/index.html My own ISP (Blueyonder) has posted the following statement :- Timestamp : 25 Jan, 2003 13:13 Name : xxxxxxxxxx Department : Problem Management Detailed Description : At the present time there is a general exploit taking place on the Internet, affecting all ISPs globally. This is resulting in a heavy traffic load, causing slow connectivity to many Internet sites/services. The industry is currently investigating the nature of this, and discussing appropriate measures.

For Les Hall - Re the 1901 reli who is said to have been born in at Hanley - who gave the information to the enumerator ? If it was him he may well have THought he was born in Hanley as the family may have moved the short distance while he was still little. Many folks moved from the rural area to the bright lights of the towns for better work. It is a common problem with census' - people tell the enumerator where they BELIEVE they were born , and this is not always correct . For Julie in Australia - You question is very similar - imagine the scenario - Young couple move to the bright lights of Hanley for better work and low and behold she later finds out she's pregnant. Perhaps all her relatives are still in Audley and they say "Come wom ter have the Sprog" - So young wifey goes back to Audley and has the baby. As it was born there then it would have been registered as being born in Audley. On the issued certificate it MAY say Born at AUDLEY in column 1 and give further info in columns 6 and seven. Column six is Fathers occupation = may also have his address if different from the babies birth but this is a rareity - I have two instances of this unusual helpfull info Column 7 is informant - If it was daddy who registered the baby then he may have given the Hanley address. Hope these thoughts help Steve

Hello Everyone, You may have seen previous publicity concerning the FreeCEN project, the Internet-based 'free to view' project that will enable researchers to view details of UK Census between the years 1841 and 1891, especially the ability to search by surname across census years and counties. In particular it will considerably help researchers that cannot visit the U.K, or those in the U.K. who find difficulty in travelling. I am the coordinator for North Staffs and we currently have 7 pieces that have been transcribed and are ready for checking. Once the checking is done there is only the validation stage before the data is ready to go on-line. If you have access to a computer and a fiche reader and think that you'd be able to help out with this very worthwhile project, please get in touch with me to either transcribe, or check work already transcribed. If you would like to find out more about the project, please take a look at http://freecen.rootsweb.com and to follow the progress of both North and South Staffs at http://dcdudley.tripod.com/ . I look forward to hearing from anyone with a bit of time to spare, and who thinks they could help get the 1891 census for Staffs on-line and free for anyone to search.

Hi List, Researching the family name of PERKINS. Covering Handsworth Staffs & Walsall Staffs so far. Regards, Maria (sunny Germany)

My mother tells me that her ggrandmother ran a sweet shop (candy store?) 1 or 2 shops down from a church, she thinks may be St. Margarets. The church is on a corner, maybe facing a grassy area. She was there about 20 years ago and thinks it was a 'curiosity shop' at that time. The lady that ran it was Anne King, wife of Stephen Kelsall. Mom's memory is getting a bit tough but this is the way she remembers it. Any help with pictures or documents would be a great joy for my mom. Thanks Phil Bowerman Toronto, Canada

Dave - When I read the sentinel on Satdee night my memories flooded back to about 1958ish As a young lad I lived just off St John Street in Hillchurch Street and we used to go along there to get to Broom Street School. Many a time we had folks shout at us " Thayt end up larke Tummy Ulland they wilt" You see, opposite where Tommy was reputed to have gone down the shaft the houses have a small wall in the front, with a very long stretch and a short un where the door is then a nother long en and so on . Well we used get on these walls and run along and jump/skip over the gaps as dares . When we used get to the end we'd jump down on ter the pavement and thats when folks would shite at us. All the kids around knew the story but we all thought it was made up by Mams to keep yer good.

I am interested in the pottery run by Thomas Phillips and his son at Furlong pottery in Burslem in 19C (1845/46). It was only running for a couple of years as far as I can determine. Does anyone know who owned/run the pottery before and after this time? Anyone know the whereabouts of any such pottery - I know that some of the pottery produced was Willow Pattern. I would love to get a sample if possible but even pictures would be good. Is Furlong Pottery the same as Hadderidge Pottery, Burslem which is mentioned by Jewitt and was worked by Thos. Heath and then successively by John Wedgewood, Mr. Phillips, and W&G Harding all before 1859? many thanks for any help ray

Thought that you bunch may enjoy this. Any more? Dave Listowner Potteries The Saturday January 18th Edition of "The Sentinel" newspaper includes the following item "This year marks the centenary of the death of Thomas Holland in one of the most horrifying accidents in Potteries history. He was swallowed up by an old pitshaft which opened up beneath his feet in St John Street, Hanley, as he walked to work one morning in 1903, Poor Thomas was never seen again and a funeral service was held around the gaping hole. It was claimed the victim, a keen Salvationist, was singing the well known hymn "When the Roll is Called Up Yonder" at the very moment he disappeared down the shaft. Afterwards Hanley Town Council agreed to conduct an inquiry into disused pitshafts in the area, but the investigations made little progress because many had never been mapped"

Hello Everybody, I am new to this list, also what details I have got are a little sketchy. Eliza BENNETT born Burslem Staffordshire approx 1824/1825 Father Sampson BENNETT Potter. Eliza married Alfred RUDYARD approx 1845 they had two children William and Sarah. Alfred must have died because she married my Greatgrandfather Rowland BAMFORD at The Parish Church of Burslem in 1852. They must have gone to live in Manchester by 1854 because my grandad was born there. Eliza was a Dressmaker and Milliner according to the Directories in Manchester and I did find a Eliza Bennett Milliner and Dressmaker in Slaters 1850 Directory in Pitt ST. Burslem, if it is my Eliza she must have been working under her maiden name. It is possible that her mothers name may have been Phoebe or Phebe. possibly (MATHERS) not too sure about the surname. William and Sarah RUDYARD went to Manchester with thier mother and stepfather and William had quite a successful Dyers and Cleaners in Newton Heath for many, many years. I have added this information incase there is anybody looking for these Rudyards. Hope that somebody can help. Jean Loughborough, Leicestershire

David, I think you're going to have to bite the bullet and fork out for some certificates (at £6.50 each soon to go up). Does your father (assuming he's one of the sons you mention) have a copy of the death certificates? From the oldest child's birth, you can probably work out approximately when they were married, and from that to a marriage certificate is fairly easy. From some time in the 1920s, they were cross-referenced, so that it's not too difficult to find the spouse of a person. From the marriage certificate, you can discover the probable birth dates, and you also have the father's name on the certificate. If you're within reach of the Family Records Centre in London (Myddelton House in Islington), then you can probably do all this within a day. If it means a day trip to London, then the FRC is open on Saturdays. I hope this isn't all elementary stuff that you already knew. If it is, please ignore me! Brough is the maiden name of my father's grandmother, so it's a line I haven't pursued very diligently, but if you and I connect in the late 19th century, then I've got all the names at least of Broughs who are connected back to the Lewis Brough I mentioned before, which I've taken from the 1881 census.

Hi Dave, In the winter of 1900, my great-grandmother Alice Mary COOPER married widower, Samuel BROUGH who was born in Tunstall in 1861 and worked as a Glost Fireman. He had five children from his first marriage to Sophia Forriday; Samuel Brough born 1882, Anna Brough born 1884, Sarah Brough born 1889, James Brough born 1891 and Alice Brough born 1893. In 1901, ALICE and SAMUEL and his five children were living at 26 Williamson Street in Tunstall. I don't know yet if my great-grandmother and Samuel had any children of their own. If you think you could be a descendant from this line please do get in touch.

Dear David, I am descended from Lewis BROUGH and his wife Priscilla HOOD, who were married at St John's, Burslem, on 12th September 1830. Lewis, baptized on 16th April 1809, was the son of John Brough and Sarah. Sarah's maiden name "may" have been LEWIS, which would explain the first name of my ancestor, and if so, she and John were married on 8th September 1801 in Stone.
