Richard While we can't browse the historic registers of the Register Office marriages you can still send off for a marriage certificate either to the General Register Office or to the local register office. For all my Register Office marriages I didn't know that the marriage had even taken place in a Register Office until I received the certificate.

Rich It's my understanding that the LancsBMD project was in done conjunction with the local Registrar's office (and with their instigation) so that all the registers were available. I also gather from when I started to look (several years later) at doing a similar project in Bucks that the national picture had changed (ie with the now-aborted DOVE project etc) that it would not be easy to repeat it. I got the feeling that LancsBMD was driven by willing people on both sides (the "official" and the "amateur" sides) and "cannot do it" rules were imposed later.

I usually tend to assume that everyone can download and read a word document attachment, but add into the body of the email a statement saying that if they have difficulty reading or downloading, to contact me and I will send it either in a different format or in the body of the email. I can't remember the last time anyone actually asked for a document in a different format though. The other strategy I have is to produce a pdf as again, most people seem to be able to download those. The way I produce pdfs is via cutepdf http://www.cutepdf.com/ - this installs under your printer options, so you just "print" the document, selecting cutepdf as the printer.

The North East Digital Story Centre, Curiosity Creative has collected oral histories backed with documents and photos of life in Newcastle There are several stories on their website - easily navigable from this link http://curiositycreative.org.uk/project/roots-and-visions Roots and Visions is an account of the my own Gilhome family, recounted by my mum, Gwen Usher, nee Gilhome, of her father and aunts who were some of the first children to attend teh Chilllingham Road School when it opened in 1894. If anyone else has links withthe area I'm sure the "contact us"" page might be a useful source of more information. For the school project, they had access to the schoool registers and admisisons books, and as you will see on hte video they also collected family photos to illustrate Including the amazing sight of my greeat aunt riding a motor bike in the 1930s when she was a district nurse Chris Usher, studying Gilhome

The option is still there, but you do have to know where to look! It used to be available from the public pages, but is now only from the Members Room. Go to the Members Room at: http://www.one-name.org/members/index.html. In the middle of the top row of navigation buttons you'll find "Reg.Names". Click on this to get to the page: http://www.one-name.org/members/regnames.html. In the light-blue box on the left, select "Guild Profiles", to reach the page http://www.one-name.org/members/nameprofile.html This is probably the page you remember, as you can click on a letter and see the available profiles for names beginning with that letter. Hope this helps!

I am wondering if something on the new web site is different or if I remember it wrongly or just forgotten how I did it before. I thought that before one could browse through the profiles of various registered names. I liked to do this from time to time, to get ideas, see what people's websites had on them etc. It seems now, one has to search for a particular name to do this. Has the other option gone or did it never exist? Nikki #6552

Jackie Many thanks for this. Completely unexpectedly it provided a surname which in effect showed how it had been given. This is the first time I have come across this explicitly set out in a formal document for the name I am tracking. I wonder how many other such documents, in such a convenient form, are available?
