Hi all advice please on looking up people on the electoral roll (in Genes reunited.) when I ask for a name eg Norman Holmes, it finds a very large number and won't use middle names or initials. However it gives you the full names of the people at the same address eg Mark B Holmes and Murgatroyd John Holmes Is there a secret to the electoral roll and is that the only place to look? regards Marg OLeary Port Stephens NSW

Hi Eileen, Unfortunately there are quite a few trees on Ancestry claiming that Joshua, son of William died in Burnley in 1814. Of course, it is possible that they are all copies of one incorrect one.

I have just checked by looking myself up - not a very good example as I have opted out of the printed register for the last 10 years - and it looks as if you can't specify a second name on FMP (but it's only for 2002 -2013 plus an historic Cheshire one) and whilst you can on Ancestry they only have a very limited number of historic electoral rolls available to search. I have just checked GR and they only seem to have electoral rolls for 2002-2013 so again it is obviously little use for historic searching. 192.com also have them and I have just searched for a neighbour using both of his names and he comes up so I would recommend that one if you are looking for modern data.

Hi all The family I am following is that of William James Holmes (b 1888 Kendal,) an engineer and his wife, Winifred Wareing. >From BMD they had the following children: James H 1921 Grace 1922 Florence 1923 Gladys 1925 Margaret 1927 Marion 1930 Peter 1934 David 1936 Frank 1941 I seem to be having trouble finding them later eg death, marriage, and wondering what happened. What would have been the engineering jobs in Haslingden in 1920s to 40s? For an engineer in the 1940s, where should I be looking? I imagine the war would have had an impact on engineering then. regards Marg OLeary Port Stephens NSW
