Hi, I have access via the library at work. So I would go to any University library as you would be able to access it there. I don't know what the procedure is in your part of the world, but here in Australia anybody can use a University library but staff and students have borrowing rights. There are also a few providers that offer it but you would probably have to buy a subscription.

This is an amendment to my last post - proving that I should read over all posts at least twice. Corrected message: Is there anyone with stray references to the HATTON family. The HATTON family I am chasing is based at Forthampton and Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, Chaceley in Worcestershire, and Ledbury in Herefordshire. I am particularly interested in wills.

Tricia: The Time Archive is available online at some public libraries so far as I am aware. But my main point in replying is that your reference to Nelmes caught my eye. I am currently researching the Batten families of Wickwar, Westerleigh and Iron Acton. In the will of George Batten of Iron Acton (probate 1806) his daughter Mary Nelmes wife of Thomas and her children George, Mary, John, William, Sarah and Robert are named amongst the beneficiaries. I believe this family lived in the Berkeley area. Just a long shot, but if any of these Nelmes are of interest to you, let me know. Regards, Derek

I can't remember if I have informed you already of the following: Will of John Burton, Husbandman of Longdon, Worcestershire 23 February 1657 PROB 11/261. Joyce my wife. Witness is Will Hatton. Son in law Marton. Will of John Hatton of London, salter, prob 11/311/93, for which I think that I have already given you a transcript. And the same applies to Will of Elizabeth Colchester of Longdon PCC 1695 Prob 11/425 You are already aware of John Jordan of Forthampton, yeoman 1645 Gloucester CC 1645/ 55 as I recollect that it is on your website.

The present warrant is by reason of the Customs Commissioners' memorial of the 12th inst. based on the report of Mr. Breton, customer and collector of Dover, and Mr. Colchester, surveyor, who was sent to inspect the several ports in Kent and Sussex, to the effect that the great number of French privateers upon the coast have in effect rendered both the said sloops useless, which (though they generally keep together) are not strong enough to prevent the said privateers from bringing over prohibited goods.

Hi Listers, I have found that one of my ancestors, Hilda Emily Morse, was at the Girls Friendly Society Home in Gloucester at the time of the 1911 Census. Since the family lived in Swindon, Wilts, I'm wondering why she was in Gloucester, so I contacted the Girl's Friendly Society who tell me that their records and memorabilia are held at the Women's Library at the London Metropolitan University. I am awaiting a reply from them, but in the meantime I'm wondering if anyone on the list has come across this home. Regards Geoff Morse Herts

Dear Gloucester list, In my family I have Abigail or Abby Tombs who was christened in 1796 in Cowley. She was married to Henry Lyes who was christened in Brimpsfield in 1796. Their first son, Cornelius was christened in 1830 in Brimpsfield. Can anyone tell me the marriage date and place of Abigail and Henry? Later, when she was widowed, she married William Taylor in 1851 in Brimpsfield. William Taylor was christened in Barnsley in 1800 and was first married to a Jane. Their first child Richard Taylor was christened in Barnsley in 1824. Jane was buried in 1850 in Barnsley at age 59. Can anyone tell me the marriage date and place of the marriage of William Taylor to Jane? Thank you. Carolyn Taylor Harmon

Hi Janet, I'm working on the more recent Australian generation (Robert & Sarah's grandchildren in melbourne) and have ordered two certificates online tonight. You can order Australian 'uncertified' certificates for family history purposes by paying by credit card online and download the file straight away, what a great service! As soon as I clean them up, I shall look at ordering the British certicates for Robert & Sarah Webber's children. I was rather hoping that one of the other member tree owners on Ancestry might already have some and would share! We'll see what happens. I just find this quite hilarious because I though by starting to look up an ancestor in Australia it would make a change from Bristol, Somerset & Gloucestershire, but here we are back in Gloucestershire again! I searched on FreeBDM for Robert Webber's marriage to Sarah and looked at others on registration pages to find her surname, only to find on one particular page, two other names already on my tree! It's a small world!! Will let the list know once I find out more.

Hi Liz, Yes apologies for the salutation becoming part of the link. Many of the older texts on that site can be downloaded in normal PDF format too - straight to pc. So no need for kindle or pc apps. I wonder, are there other benefits from downloading to kindle? Is the text downloaded in OCR format, so can be searched? One of my friends runs texts through a program to OCR the text, which if you are lucky to know someone with that capability, is very helpful. There are certainly some great references available on that archive site.
