Hi Pat Lucky you just 3KM. I have been doing an 80KM round trip for 20+years now and I am one of the nearer researchers. Hopefully the fiche have been sent to a main center so it would not take too long to reorder them at another center, although that would mean paying again.

Thanks Marg., Yes I know but Moorabbin was 3kms from home and had been going there for about 12 years - not too big., familiarity with the volunteers and equipment and other researchers., times suited., and all those fiche I had ordered over the years and had been retained for reuse now unavailable - spoilt I guess even the volunteers were bitterly disappointed.

Pat there are still quite a few LDS centres in the suburbs of Melbourne.

Does any member of GFHS have Journal 108 to hand, please. According to the index, the surname STEEL is mentioned on page 30; I would be grateful to receive the details. David Steel Adelaide, South Australia

Went to ancestor land and visited Awre church. I bought the leaflet about the St Andrew's church which included extracts from the Parish registers. " 1733 Buried Dec 3rd.N.B. This body was stolen out of the ground the same night by Saml.Steele,Thos.Sallens.Rich.Newman ,Jas.Lane. Signs of the Zodiac at side of entries in Register."

Has anyone come across this lot? George Shield bapt 1781 Olveston, married Mary. Samuel Shield b 1785 Tockington, married Martha. William Shield b 1787 Almondsbury, married Ann. Elizabeth Shield b 1790 Almondsbury, d 1870 Almondsbury. Ann Shield b 1794 Almondsbury. Isaac Shield bapt 1797 Almondsbury, married Sarah. John Shield b 1800 Olveston, married Ann Cordie. I have a feeling they may all be the children of George Shield (1752-1835) and Elizabeth Britton (1758-1831) who married at Olveston in 1778, but how do I prove it? Sue Stead

This is of interest to me as well if I could have a copy please. General request for info on Steels. My ggfather Stephen Steel born in Bridgewater 1849 but on 1861 census for Gatcombe near Awre His father Charles from Blakeney with Awre christened 27/2/1814. I went to see the villages March 1/3rd and discovered that there was a Samuel Steel graverobber-stole body from graveyard with a group of friends 1733 and so I am even more keen to go to Record office!

Yes my local LDS Centre here in Melbourne closed at Xmas - no real explanation - but inference was that with the use of home computers they wish us to subscribe and pay particulary Ancestry - most inconvenient as I had been a user of their film hire facility for many years.

Hi All, My cousin informed me that my ancestors, HENRY LOCKE and SARAH PETERS were married on the 27th of January, 1775, at St Michaels Parish Church at South Cerney, Gloucester, and the IGI has listed them as being married at South Cerney also, but the parish church of St Michaels is at Harnhill, and the parish church at South Cerney is All Hallows! Is there a St Michaels church at South Cerney? Any response greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Gerry.

That is a shame as they are a very useful tool. In the not to distant future the LDS will close a lot of their Family History Centres as they will not be needed. The LDS are going to make these films available in digitised form & there will be no cost involved in using them except, like now, you will have to buy yourself a computer & have access to the internet. sim8ne@aol.com wrote: > Thanks for the reply. > > Sorry, I probably worded my email slightly wrong, I meant there isn't one local to me (and I don't know of any new ones, if indeed new ones ever open up? - which I doubt).

I'm a bit behind here but if you want to know where your nearest Family History Centre is go to www.familysearch.org & look on the left hand side of the page after the search facility & you will see how to find out where the nearest one is to you.

Hi Folks Neil Dun who is one of our members has done loads of work analysing FreeBMD data to identify churches where people got married in the Bristol area! He's still working on the data but his work to date is now available for you to freely download from the 'download resource page' at the Bristol & Avon Family History Society website (www.bafhs.org.uk).

Hi Listers, Just letting you know that I now have a Family History web site up an running. www.rmchalmers.net Hope someone finds some names of interest. Bye, Rosemary M Chalmers Palmerston Bookkeeping Services Darwin NT Australia rosechal@iinet.net.au

Pat, Since I don't live in England, I may be wrong, but I believe St. Mary-de-Lode is in Gloucester. I found my 3rd great grandparents married in St. Mary-de-Lode church. I know that answer is not much help, but that is my understanding. Possibly someone who is more familiar than I can also help with this question.

Rosemary, You have a very nice and easy to navigate site. I have some of your names but they were in America in the 1600, 1700 and 1800's. I did notice that you have 2 families in Biddestone. They aren't my surnames but I am still hunting for the maiden name of Elizabeth Wall from this area so I will keep your site in mind for down the road when I do find it.

Hi Listers, I have a will for a John HARRIS, carpenter, of Welford, GLS that isn't 'my' John's will. The will was proved in London in July 1848, John's wife was Sarah - looking in the 1851 she's a widowed dressmaker aged 53. If this will is of any use to someone I'll be very happy to pass it on. If you can use this will, would you contact me off list, please. Regards, Ellie Thomas
