Hi Mike, The Parish Records are the one's I purchased from E.R.O.on microfiche, Regards, David

Hi David Is it in the BTs? I think that is where many of the IGI entries came from. I only found an ancestor's older brother who was in the BTs but not the PR. His mother's will proved the connection - he was a convict sent to Australia. For transcribing for NBI the SEAX images a so much easier to use. Cheers Jo

Could I just add, I have found Baptisms on I.G.I. but have been unable to find them in the Parish Records. Regards, David

I would normally agree wholeheartedly but we must be pragmatic rather than dogmatic about it. I'd like to know of any instances where a good online photograph of the original (such as the SEAX PRs) is less helpful than the original.

I think you know what I meant by original...."original" as in filmed, photographed etc., and I totally agree the SEAX PR's are amazingly clear. Another reason to go through the films of the original PR's (as opposed to looking at one item) and not trust just indexes is that one of my ancestors was left out of an LDS PR extraction, but she is there clear as day in the original parish records, again original as in filmed. I would say the same about census reports...so many times I have found relatives living just next door or even several doors down which would not have been turned up with a transcribed copy of just one household. Likewise original BMD certificates as opposed to just using Freebmd, sometimes there is more to the story, as in marriages, sometimes the woman is a widow therefore not her real surname. Just my experience (regretably learnt the hard way)...

it is also well enough known that some records, too fragile to be handled by anyone but a curator and/or restorer, are locked in vaults and in no way are they allowed to be viewed. some may never be viewable, and only available through transcript. this is only a statement of fact, please try to not read something else into it.

I agree, If I went by on line records I would mistakingly believe I know my 4 gt grandmother's maiden name. However there were 2 maybe 3 couples by the same name having kids around the same time and place...distinguished by the fathers' occupations and addresses which do not appear on the on line records. Having checked the records, unfortunately for me, her maiden name still eludes me, therefore the marriage and the number of children she may have had. The online images of burial records allowed me to find her death, if I had tried ordering death certificates I believe I may have ordered more than 7 before I would have given up...she had a middle name which had never appeared on any of the children's christening records or the 1841 census where she fortunately appears with a known daughter. A grandson and many descendents moved to or were born in Essex including my mum. The perils of a commom name.

A little late to the fray, but I get the digests, and have been gardening all weekend! Before anyone gets too carried away, let's not forget that non-con records are different beasts to CofE registers anyway. Their survival is patchy, and in many cases even if they do survive the nature of the records means they may not contain what you want anyway. I've a local baptist church where the minutes book records the minutes of all the meetings held (care to know who demolished the old manse? Or went round prodding the non-attenders?), burials rather patchily recorded over twenty years or so, no marriages (possibly not legal in a baptist church in this period - not having baptists in the family, I'm not sure when they became permissible) and, of course, no mention of births or infant baptisms! On the other hand, the local Congregational church records infant baptisms, and mother's maiden names... So what you get depends on all manner of things. Adrian

However...you should never, ever rely solely on online records. Always look at the original. On ancestry there is a long, long line of people hooked up to one family based on IGI records. When I looked at the original records (which suddenly appeared on ancestry recently) it turned out that the one couple having children was not just "one" couple, it was several couples with the same names having children baptized in the same church during the same time frame. In my own Essex line I have a man listed on the burial page when it is obviously a baptism (should have been put on the opposite page)...which no online index would have picked up correctly. Also, lots of times there are additional details in the registers, even notes, and not always nice ones!

I wonder if anyone can throw light on this brick wall I believe John (snr) was born in Hitcham, Suffolk but have not located any collaborative data as yet. Where & when he died is a mystery. I know he married Ann Fraser or Traser as below & had 3 known children. What happened to the children is still a mystery.

Hi Dennis Ellen Elizabeth, daughter of William and Ellen BENNETT, baptised 25 June 1871 at St Mary Islington. Abode is Grove Street, and William's occupation is Stone Cutter. The baptism register handily provides her date of birth (not all registers do), as 1 April 1869. So probably yours (if the birth registration matches what you already know). There is a brother, William, baptised 7 October 1868, born 3 July 1867. Abode then was Graham Street. >From a marriage registration at St Mary Islington on 25 September 1864, I think it is fair to presume that Ellen was probably Ellen EVANS. William BENNETT was a stone sawyer, and his address was 20 Graham Street - a reasonable match, I think. Let me know if you would like any more details of the marriage and/or the image. All the above via Ancestry. Best wishes Caroline > I am looking for the birth and/or baptism record for Ellen Elizabeth > BENNETT, born Apr - Jun 1869 @ Islington, London.

I've had a hunt around for your John. I'm interested because the father of John Henry Galley was from Cambridgeshire and I'm descended from Galleys in that county. It's unlikely that John Henry Galley b.1868 is a match as he was still single and living with his parents in the 1891 census. There is another John Galley whose birth is registered in Mile End in 1863 (Sep 1863, John Galley, Mile End 1c 517). He may be the same John Gally who appears in the St George in the East District Industrial School in the 1871 census. Obviously he's a bit too old, but may have been confused about his age and parentage given his circumstances. The John born in 1863 may be the uncle of the John Henry Galley found by Michael. John Henry's grandparents, Jonathan and Jane Maling France were living in the area and were not too old to have a last child in 1863. Jane died in late 1863 or early 1864 (Mar 1864, Jane Maling Galley, Mile End 1c 482) aged about 44. They already had a son named Jonathan - but I've found many families who treat Jonathan and John as distinct names. Alternatively Jonathan and Jane had a daughter, Charlotte Victoria, who married Thomas Payne in 1868. She may have had an illegitimate child before then. There are not too many Galleys in the Mile End Registration District in the 1860s. This family appears to account for most of them - some of whom lived on Commercial Road - so warrants further investigation. By the way, I finally found John and Ellen in the 1911 census - they've been indexed as FALLEY. Hope this helps.

What a wonderful helpful family we are on the Essex Rootsweb site, and Dennis you didn't even have to leave home! Shirley in Florida

Dennis, Again without knowing family circumstances I would assume that Ellen Bennett was a spinster when she married John Galley.
