Hello all, The Yorkshire Parish Register Society began transcribing registers in 1899, since when it has published 177 volumes of printed parish registers. Although the society's name has now changed to Yorkshire Parish Register Section, or YPRS, and now comes under the banner of the Yorkshire Archaeological Society, its aims are still the same as they were 111 years ago. Some publications are now available on CD, as well as in books. Because they rely on volunteers to transcribe the parish registers, and this has to be done at the archive repositories, it is a slow process. All their work has to be thoroughly checked before publication, which also takes a great deal of time. If you visit archives in Yorkshire regularly, and could possibly spare a little time to help with either transcribing or checking, this would be much appreciated. Also, if you have spare time, and access to a computer, some inputting of transcripts is needed. This year, the section has published registers for Kirkburn, 1686-1837 and Tickhill (Volume 2) 1674 - 1771. All the YPRS publications are listed on www.yorkshireparishregisters.com. Most of the CD publications will be available at the Hull Family History Fair on 16th October, at Batley on 13th November and at the Milton Keynes Family History Show, Bletchley Park, on the 14th November. If you are attending any of these events and would like one of the books, please email info@yorkshireparishregisters.com The Section is working hard to ensure that all their work is accurate, for the benefit of family historians now and in the future.

I can't find the parents' marriage, or the kids' baptisms. I've got a possible baptism for William, 07 Feb 1773 @ Abingdon (son of Henry & Elizabeth Fisher); this is the only William Fisher in Abingdon within 10 years of the dates you gave me! And I'm not convinced it's your William as there is a William Henry Fisher born to William Fisher in 1838 and the mother's name is given as Elizabeth, which doesn't match at all. I've also scoured the Tickhill records and Elizabeth's baptism is nowhere to be found. Is it possible they weren't CofE? that would explain why church records are proving so difficult to find... Also, is it possible that Rebecca was a second wife, and that the children have a different mother? Of course if we could find the parish records of the baptisms that would answer that question; but it could explain why there doesn't seem to be a record of their marriage. Sorry I couldn't be of more help :-( Kate Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hello all, I have been asked by the Kirkbymoorside History Group to tell you about their latest publication. Following the huge success of the book "Adela Shaw and the Yorkshire Children's Orthopaedic Hospital, Kirkbymoorside" earlier this year, a new book, of pictures and memories from some of the hundreds of people who worked there or were patients there, "Smile....!" has just arrived. As the hospital treated children from all over Yorkshire, these books have proved enormously popular, all over the county, and are now made available online at www.ryedalefamilyhistory.org Regards, Janice Wood No virus found in this outgoing message.

I'm not actually local to the area at all, so I googled Eastby and got a little town near Skipton. However, when I looked on Genuki Eastby doesn't exist as an independent parish, nor is it listed on the IGI. A possibility is looking in the Skipton or Bolton Abbey records as they were the nearest, however in parish records I find the reference to where a person is 'from' usually relates to their parish, not necessarily their town, and the only parish I can find with a similar name is Easby, just outside Richmond. The Genuki page for Easby is http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/NRY/Easby/index.html Kate Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Mar qtr 1946 Northumberland South 10b 591 There are also possible siblings of Raymond as follows:- Derek I Mccubbin Mar qtr 1951 Northumberland C 1b 392 Irene S Mccubbin Jun qtr 1953 Northallerton 1b 1183 Please check index references yourself just in case I've made a typo! Esme Cassie b dec qtr 1923 Castle Ward, Northumberland 10b 613 mother's maiden name Tate The only birth for a James E Mccubbin I have found is Mar qtr 1921 Toxteth Park, Lancashire 8b 323 mother's maiden name Fox. The only way to be sure you're on the correct trail though is, as previously stated, to work backwards ordering certificates. That's of course if you want to work backwards - it did sound as if you wanted to go forwards! Best wishes, Sue Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I've taken your advice and ordered the death certificate. I agree that the death date is probably wrong and has been passed along. Lesson learned. Thanks also for the division of the ridings. I'm obviously not as familiar with the area as perhaps I should be. Again, I really appreciate your help, and anything else that you think I should be pursuing, I'm totally open to it.

Raymond mccubbin was born in england and died here but he had a scottish accent and was in the army, his parents lived in east ayrshire, scotland.

I wonder if you can help me with a brick wall!! In 1841 and 1851 census for Sheffield I have William Fisher born 1776 to 1781 in Abingdon Berkshire. His wife is Rebecca born about 1780 in Sunderland. I do not have her surname and cannot find a marriage for them at all. I think they had 3 children, Elizabeth Fisher b. abt 1816 in Tickhill, John Bower Fisher b. about 1818 in Sheffield and Joseph Fisher b. 1825 Sheffield. Joseph appears in the Sheffieldindexers website but not the other 2. I found it odd that John was called John Bower and did look to see if that was Rebecca's last name but drew a blank. Do you have anything for a marriage for William and Rebecca? Thanks so much Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
