Hi to you all have been preoccupied with collating all the info I gathered from my trip to the island back in April, from relatives & the records office. May I take this oppurtunity to thank Dave Peach, Jon Baker & Keir Foss for their help & any others that I havent mentioned. A BIG THANK YOU! This is another plea for help- would anyone have any info on the 1841 or 1851 census? Or advice/tips how to search beyond 1837? All suggestions would be gratefully recieved. I'm a bit stuck! In the short time I've been doing this I'm amazed at the time consumed & the amount of facts & figures I've gathered In anticipation Sue S --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
