That's good news. My great uncle William Bourne went to Trenton NJ circa 1910, maybe later. He married stateside and had a family. I have photos of the family sent to his sister/neices and my uncle, now deceased was still writing to some of them circa 1960. I am now trying to trace them. www.risinsun.co.uk Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

I hope you find something of interest in this weeks issue OXFORDSHIRE FHS JOINS THE CD REVOLUTION For over ten years, the Oxfordshire FHS has published a wide range of Parish register transcripts and monumental inscriptions, and census indexes And transcriptions, on microfiche. However, by popular demand, the society Is now making such data available on CD in the popular Adobe Acrobat format. The use of Acrobat means that this data can be accessed by PC and Mac users alike. The 1861, 1871 and 1891 censuses of Oxfordshire and North Berkshire have been fully indexed by members of this society. These continue to be available on microfiche, but are now also on sale on CD. Furthermore, an increasing number of our parish register transcripts are now available on CD, including those for the Oxford City and Wallingford areas. Further area collections will follow on CD in the near future. Another interesting gem now on CD is Volumes 1 to 11 of the "Oxfordshire Family Historian". This is the society's journal, which has been published three times per year since the society's formation in 1976. This CD includes over sixty editions of the journal published over a twenty-one year period, and includes many quality articles written by its first editor, Jeremy Gibson of "Gibson Guides" fame. This is a real treasure trove of data For those with Oxfordshire research interests. For further details of the society's CD publications and how to order them, please see :- http://www.ofhs.org.uk/CDsales.html Any queries about these CDs can be forwarded by e-mail to :- Paul Gaskell Publicity Officer and Minutes Secretary Oxfordshire Family History Society E-mail : [email protected] Website : www.ofhs.org.uk NEW BOOKS AND CD's Surname Landscape In Fermanagh Brian S Turner The first in an authoritative new series of maps and accompanying information which reveal the surname 'landscapes' of Ulster's counties.

The Life of William Bruges - The First Garter King of Arms William Bruges was a man of some prominence in his day, the first Garter King of Arms, an excellent herald, diplomat and devoted churchman. Report on Ecclesiastical Revenues of England & Wales 1835 A superb reference book for those interested in Church history or with ancestors who were clergy. Kelly's Directory of Surrey 1911 A very large and comprehensive directory of the county. Kelly's Directory of Sussex 1882 Each town, village and hamlet have excellent descriptions of their histories and facilities, plus directories of private residents and tradespeople. The county town, Brighton also has a superb street by street directory which shows private individuals and traders almost house by house. The 1st Battallion Royal Scots in South Africa, 1899-1902 A totallly superb account of this battalion's exploits during the Anglo-Boer War with literally hundreds of photographs.

Archive CD Books homepage - http://www.archivecdbooks.com WEBPAGE REVIEWS http://www.barnettresearch.freeserve.co.uk/main.htm This is a truly excellent site devoted to helping users find out about Merchant Seaman ancestors. The site informs us which records are available, how to use them and what you might realistically find. It also tells us where we might find them. It explains such records as crew lists and many more. The site was clear and simple and extremely easy to navigate, there was no real possibility of getting lost, as there were plenty of hyperlinks to take you to precisely the right spot, and they were well cross referenced. The refreshing lack of needless images also meant the site was quick to load which is a pleasant bonus http://www.bitterne.net/ The website of Bitterne Local History Society. This website follows the pattern of many Family History Society websites, lists of officers, meetings and publications, but this website has an added bonus if you connect via the Lists button. This is a collection of lists which are free to browse. Many f them refer to the two World Wars, it is heartening to see many local and family history societies are using webspace to honour their lost. I would love to see this expanded. The other list I found interesting is the road name changes. It appears many of these happened when Bitterne became part of Southampton in 1924, but if you have a road name on the 1881 census that does not appear on a modern map this may well be the place to look, for Bitterne anyway!

If this is of use to you in your own personal research, drop me a line At [email protected] and I will put you in touch with the current holder Meanwhile, if you have a certificate you don't need that may be of use to someone else then drop me a line, and we will advertise it in an upcoming newsletter . We have changed the certificate system a little, to give hopefully an added opportunity for sharing information. If you have a spare certificate that is of no use to you at all then you can either send me the details, as normal, or send me the certificate. If the certificate is sent to me then it will be sent on to any enquiries. All spare certificates sent to me will have their details registered on Free BMD. After six months if nobody has claimed the certificates as interesting to their research then they will be deposited at the SoG library. I will however keep all the details of the certificate on file and pass them on to any relevant one name studies registered with the Guild of One Name Studies. The address for spare certificates to be sent to is: GFHN, 66 Northern Road, Aylesbury, HP19 9QY NEW ON GENUKI Devon Pages added/amended: Dalwood Dalwood Parish Map Dartington Dartington Parish Map Dartmoor Dartmoor Forest Map Dartmouth St Petrox Dartmouth St Petrox Parish and St Saviour Parish Map Dartmouth St Saviour Dartmouth St Petrox Parish and St Saviour Parish Map Dartmouth Townstall Dartmouth Townstall Parish Map Dartmouth Parishes Map Dartmouth Dawlish Dawlish Parish Map Dean Prior Dean Prior Parish Map Denbury Denbury Parish Map Devon Full Contents Devon FAQ File Index to Names in MIs Diptford Diptford Parish Map Dittisham Dittisham Parish Map Dodbrooke Dodbrooke Parish Map Doddiscombsleigh Doddiscombsleigh Parish Map Dolton Dolton Parish Map Dotton Dotton Parish Map Dowland Dowland Parish Map Down St Mary Down St Mary Parish Map Drewsteignton Drewsteignton Parish Map Dunchideock Dunchideock Parish Map Dunkeswell Dunkeswell Parish Map Dunsford Dunsford Parish Map Dunterton Dunterton Parish Map Gloucestershire Links/Pages added/amended: [Kingswood (nr.

I am trying to trace Peter BOTT, date of birth circa 1810 I have two baptisms at High St or Lower Chapel Longton 15 Feb 1836 Peter BUTT x Jane James BUTT b. 15Feb 1834 Maria BUTT b. 31 Jan 1836 then 9 children and thier dates of birth 1839 - 1851 recorded for Peter BOTT x Jane Simmons (Symmons), all at Lane End or Longton. These are from IGI and data was submitted by someone but source was with held. Sarah b. 1837 John b. 1839 Mary b. 1840 Eliza b. 1842 Jane b. 1844 Martha b. 1846 Amos b. 1847 Mary b. 1849 David b. 1851 I think this is one and the same family but I can't find a birth, marriage or death for Peter. I have lost disc 1 of Midlands 1881 census so can't do any checking there. I think the James BUTT born 1834 is my ggg grandfather as age, father and area fit with his marriage cert. Could someone look for James, Amos, John and David BOTT / BUTT on the 1881 for me please? I am assuming BUTT to be poor transcribing of BOTT. If anyone has earlier census material or Longton/Lane End baptisms (do I assume they stuck with non-conformist baptisms?) then any clues for a further search would be gratefully received. It will be weeks before I can get out to spend an evening or two researching. The marriage must have been a parish one (circa 1834/5). As James was not baptised until 2 years old can I assume they were newly religious or that they just arrived in the area? Added complication maybe this. I know BOTT is a Prussian name as well as Anglo-Saxon English and there was some movement of BOTTs from Germany to US at the start of the 19th Century. Many thanks for reading this - it helps to get thoughts straight. Janet Howell www.risinsun.co.uk using AVG virus checking from Grisoft
