    2. The other day I received a small unsolicited donation from a KNIBBS who was delighted with the information about his family extracted from the database. I have used the money to purchase some units at 1837online and am at present working through the K/NIBB/S marriages post 1912. The indexes that Michael PEARMAN and subsequently Sioux and Robin have given me, show the surnames of K/NIBB/S spouses. Using 1837online, I am verifying the first names of female spouses so that I can then match them up with Michael's extracted K/NIBB/S death indices. This helps to eliminate those individuals from further study but also has spin-offs eg if the ages of the married couples are reasonably close, as is so often the case, it can help me place a heretofor unplaced K/NIBB/S. An early death puts me on notice of a possible subsequent second marriage. If any lister would like me to specifically check on one of their K/NIBB/S entries, I will gladly do so before the units run out. Here's one for Don. I had Millicent as having married his Ernest Thomas KNIBBS born 27Oct1888 Clifton/Deddington, baptised 31Oct1890 Deddington and who died 1Qtr1927 Banbury District where their children were born. Not having found a Millicent death or re-marriage, I checked her name on marriage at 1837online to find it given there as Amelia E TYRRELL. I already knew they had married 22Sep1915 Bicester District. The correct first name then led me to her death 02qtr 1947 Banbury District aged 54. To double check I had the right one, freebmd gave me Amelia Euphemia TYRRELL born 04 qtr 1892 Bicester District.
