Hi John & Everyone I think two things are getting confused here. BMD GRO Indexes are available at the places John has listed. Some Record Offices have the Marriage Registers for Church of England Marriages within their area because they are also designated as the Diocesan Record Office (Record Office for the local Church of England Area). I know that Liverpool Record Office is also the Liverpool Diocesan Record Office. Register Office Marriages are a different matter because they took place in a non religious building (in the main-there are exceptions) they belong the Local Register Offices, all of which is overseen by the General Register Office and that is the reason why they still hold them. There are some marriage records on Lancashire BMD which give the venue as 'Register Office or Registrar Attended' which means that the marriage may have taken place at a Roman Catholic Church or another religious venue where by law the Registrar had to be in attendance. In the case of Roman Catholic Marriages- many of those Marriage Registers for the Liverpool area have also been deposited at Liverpool Record Office. I hope this clears up any confusion.

Hi John Since Jack is given as dying aged 24 in Feb 1941 there is an 80% probability that he was born earlier up to Feb 1916. I would like to nominate Jack Laws (mother a Laws) registered in June 1916 (same age as his wife) at Bury St Edmunds which is just down the road from Ipswich.

Following a suggestion from Barbara Griffiths we have arranged to hold a special DNA meeting at the Guild conference in March on the afternoon of Friday 27th March between 4pm and 6pm. You will have to buy your own drinks but the bars are very conveniently located near to the meeting room! The idea is to have a fairly informal meeting to allow all of us who are running DNA projects to get to network with each other and share ideas. If you would like to come along to the meeting could you please let me know. If you have any ideas for particular subjects that you'd like to discuss perhaps you could share them with me. It may be that we could break out into smaller discussion groups covering, for example, autosomal DNA testing or mitochondrial DNA testing if there is sufficient interest. Barbara has given me permission to share extracts from her e-mail to me with her ideas for the meeting: "The idea of a meeting came out of the various discussions that had been going on, on lists such as ISOGG, about promoting DNA, and mentoring people in the UK regarding it, especially with WDYTYA moving to Birmingham this year. I'd also done a stand for ISOGG alongside the Guild's stand at the Worcester Fair - and realised I didn't really know who in the Guild was involved, so had been in touch with Susan Meates, to get a list of Guild DNA projects I could advertise. So my thoughts for the meeting was for it to be fairly informal, with everyone introducing themselves, and what testing they have done etc, and a more general discussion about the sorts of things that are issues for them. I didn't see it as a time for trying to answer specific questions necessarily, as I thought that might overlap too much with Maurice's talks. I was seeing it more as an opportunity for building closer links between like minded one-namers. It would also help in gathering information about where people are at, in order to then build on that in the future (eg identifying people who can mentor about DNA, or who are happy to do more to promote DNA at Fairs, or areas where more education/information is needed, etc.)... I'd... like to focus on building a good network of "DNA involved" people in the Guild if possible. I was trying to get away from the responsibility always landing on the two or three of you to be answering everything. We will see more and more links between us all, as testing in the UK takes off - my mother's highest match at FTDNA turned out to be the mother of another Guild member. And I have spotted two or three other Guild members amongst the matches my Dad's siblings have." I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi One-Namers Everywhere England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966 Jack LAWS of 92 St John's Road, Ipswich who is believed to have been killed through war operations on 27 February 1941 at Yate Gloucestershire. Administration Ipswich 23 Apr 1941 to Joan Gwendoline Laws widow Effects £156 10s I found her marriage in 1945 and subsequent death in 1996 which gives her birth as 28 Jun 1916 he was born 1917 thanks for the mentions of the War Memorial I've seen it John

Was Joan Gwendoline Laws mentioned as his wife, widow, sister, mother or just next-of-kin? Have you found any papers saying where he was born or his address at time of death to trace a full name given by his family rather than him? "Jack" is more likely to be John, called Jack by family and friends. I've been looking for a Wells uncle named John William Augustin on his Sept 1909 Bridgend R.D. birth registration, called Jack in the family, said to have been a soldier in France when he abandoned his wife and children living in Ireland for a French woman where he died 1970's but I can find no trace of him marrying or any Army service. I did meet him at a family gathering with the French lady so personally know he existed! From Merryl Wells of Luton, Beds. E-Mail: merryl.wells@one-name.org GOONS Mem. No. 1757 Reg.

Unfortunately we lost the counters when the profiles were originally transferred to the new website. When the counters were added they had to start again from zero so the visits only reflect visits to your profile from around the beginning of August 2014. My page has had 2,196 views in that time which I think is pretty good going though it's likely that many of these visits will be from other Guild members rather than from people with an interest in the surname.

Hi One-Namers Everywhere As I understand it all registered births/Marriages/Deaths are searchable at certain Record Offices & Libraries on Microfische Extracted from https://www.gov.uk/research-family-history Find the GRO index reference number All births, adoptions, marriages, civil partnerships and deaths registered in England or Wales have a GRO index reference number. Find index reference numbers online You can view index reference numbers online for free on the FreeBMD website. Commercial companies also have the index reference numbers online, but you will have to pay to search them and prices will vary. Find index reference numbers in person You can also search for index reference numbers for free at: Library of Birmingham Bridgend Reference and Information Library City of Westminster Archives Centre Manchester Central Library Newcastle City Library Plymouth Central Library The British Library (you'll need to register first) These are the only complete copies of the full sets of index reference numbers. They're on microfiche. View index reference numbers locally Some of the index reference numbers are available at local libraries, archives and other locations. You don't have an index reference number You can still order certificates from GRO if you don't have the index reference number, but they'll take longer to arrive and you'll need to provide identifying information to help find the correct record. Certificates in Scotland and Northern Ireland In Scotland and Northern Ireland certificates are issued by the General Register Office for Scotland and the General Register Office for Northern Ireland. Overseas records GRO has records of births, marriages and deaths of some British citizens that have taken place abroad since the late 18th century. These include people registered with British consuls, High Commissions, HM Forces, the Civil Aviation Authority and the Registrar General of Shipping and Seaman. Divorce or civil partnership dissolution records For copies of a decree absolute or final order of the dissolution of a civil partnership, you'll need to contact either: the court where the divorce or dissolution was granted the Principal Registry of the Family Division Principal Registry of the Family Division 020 7947 7016 Find out about call charges# Hope this helps so it would appear that this is not a case of Law but cash restraint John P Laws Registrar Laws Family Register Putting Flesh on the Bones of History wwww.lawsfamilyregisterr.tribalpages.com www.lawsandlawes.blogspot.com

Hi, You could try Libre which is an open source Publisher that is compatible with MS Word and can create PDF's as well, being open source means that you get the latest version and upgrades all Free. Of course you can donate to the Author/s of the program if you so wish. As for PDF's as some else pointed out they can be edited with Adobe Publisher I think it's called and you pay for that one, there may be other programs that can also edit the PDF files as well, however password protecting them is an added security if you wish to go done that path however that is not to say that can be got around as well. Most folk will not bother and will take the PDF as is. Another option is to import your GEDCom into Legacy and then create the PDF's for each branch or twig of the surname you want. This is not a sales pitch, just a happy user of Libre and Legacy. Regards, David J Grimshaw (or is it Grimason?)

As Andrew Millard previously pointed out, you can create PDFs directly from Word. Just click on Save As and you'll see the option to save a file as a PDF.

Hi Corinne, Anne, and other members I too tend to send everything as a PDF document initially, whilst the original may well be in MS Publisher or MS Word format many colleagues cannot open the document. Once I find out that a fellow researcher or friend can open MS Word, MS Publisher, Ms Excel I will then send on the document in that particular alternative format. I have installed the free software Software995 from http://www.software.com which like "cutePDF" creator sends your document to a fictitious printer, doesn't print but allows one to store it as a PDF. Most members will have Adobe Reader installed but the only way members can manipulate the content, style and format of a pdf document is if they have something like Adobe Acrobat software which has the extra potential of editing the document and adding more images etc to the original document. Software995 also has the facility for combining several PDF documents into a larger longer document, and you can even adjust the page numbers by preparing each separate PDF as a "section" with sequential pages.

Manchester and Liverpool being examples however on checking with the Manchester record office it seems that's the law that prevents us from browsing these registers!

Ian You can apply for certificates for marriages which took place in Register Offices in just the same way that you can apply for certificates for marriages that took place in churches. I have many certificates for Register Office marriages. However, it would be good if the historic Register Office birth, marriage and death records could be digitised and made available through one of the commercial providers. I don't know if there are reasons why these have not been digitised, and I also await enlightenment!

This is something I have accepted over the years, but never really understood the reason for it. If I want a marriage certificate for any of my family I can quite happily apply for and receive it unless of course they married at the Register Office. I could perhaps understand even if there was a time limitation, but why are no historic registers from the Register Office available for general public search, or even for scanning by the subscription-based companies? I am aware that on occasion they grant access for indexing projects (Herefordshire being a good local example for me). I assume they are simply retained by the RO - why are they not deposited in the same way that (most) parish registers are? I'm guessing there is a very obvious reason, I await enlightenment!

Hi Folks Anyone with a Mac does not need special software to create a PDF. It can then be read in Preview or Adobe Reader. But having created a PDF, I could not figure out how the text could be changed. Could anyone please explain?
