Hello, I am new to this site, but I have connections with Sutton-cum-Lound in 1700's. Peter Knight was a cordwainer, born C1777, and married Mary Dale in December 1808. Some time after 1809 (a child was baptised at Mattersey then) they moved to Rawcliffe, near Goole. I am keen to know more about the village in those times and indeed if there was a factor which prompted the move to Rawcliffe. Does anyone out there have information regarding any of these details which they could share with me? Sandra

Hi list Could anyone tell me the whereabouts of Milk Square in Nottingham. I assume that is not there anymore. Thanks Graham Williams

I totally agree with Brian and Graham. I actually regard sites like Facebook as quite dangerous and never go on them, even if someone sends me an email to say I have been listed as a friend. There are hundreds of other sites far more suitable for discussing or uploading family history details - if that's what folk want to do. I am not a member of the Notts FHS, but if I was, I'd be rather wary of this went ahead.

"observing good internet security" would be an excellent idea, whatever the forum. Oh that everyone did that anway!

I couldn't be bothered with the full Guardian article but I did notice: ' Anyone can glance at your intimate confessions ' Surely the simple answer to that is: do not post your intimate confessions online. I may or may not decide to check out the new group but I am sure that, used sensibly and observing good internet security, we do not need to get hysterical about it. Cliff

I am trying to find the maiden name for three sister. They are all in the Will [dated 2 November 1843] of Joseph FREARSON [1793 - 27 November 1843] of Nottingham Park [sometime Councillor and Alderman of Nottingham] - Lace Manufacturer. Three sisters are named: Mary Ann [née ????] FREARSON - wife of Joseph - beneficiary and executor Harriett [née ????] BROOKFIELD - "sister of my wife" - beneficiary Matilda [née ????] SCOTT - "sister of my wife" - beneficiary Do these names ring any bells with anyone. Joseph was a Baptist so their marriages may have been in a non-conformist tradition. They are a little early to pick up conclusively in the Censuses. For information the other names in the Will are given below - most [but not all are "known" and identified] - some may help someone. Henry FREARSON - brother - of Arno Vale - beneficiary and executor ["known" - another Nottingham Councillor] Smith FOWLER - Nottingham - Grocer - executor Henry Frearson CLARKE - nephew - Nottingham - Draper ["known" - son of Ann Frearson and William Clarke] - beneficiary and executor Hannah Frearson [née CLARKE] EYRE - niece - widow of George EYRE - [daughter of Ann Frearson and William Clarke] - beneficiary ["known"] Maria Frearson CLARKE - niece - [daughter of Ann Frearson and William Clarke] - beneficiary ["known"] Matilda Frearson [née CLARKE] SMITH - niece - [daughter of Ann Frearson and William Clarke] wife of Edward SMITH of Birmingham - beneficiary ["known"] [Their daughter Lucy would later marry George [1st Viscount] YOUNGER Mary Ann - wife of Thomas MARSHALL - of Nottingham - Lace Manufacturer. Ann WEBSTER [Miss] - from whom he bought a "dwelling house, warehouse, and hereditments" on Plumtre Street and Stoney Street, Nottingham for £1400 - now occupied by Thomas MARSHALL [as above?] who occupied the said dwelling [with option to buy]. Booth EDDISON - Surgeon - witness. The Will was at York and quite large sums were involved. I can provide more details as required. John Frearson

Hello List, I wonder if anyone has access to Finningley Parish Records they would kindly look something up for me. BEEVERS I am trying to find all the children of Thomas BEEVERS and Mary between 1852 and approx 1866. I think Thomas BEEVERS married Mary WILKINSON in the last quarter of 1852. I think their first child was born around the same time in 1852. Her name was Fanny BEEVERS. I am trying to find the rest of the children for this couple, I think there may have been the following but I am not sure. Thomas James Walter William I believe Mary died sometime in 1866 and her husband Thomas BEEVERS abt 1868. HOLDGATE I am trying to find a marriage for a Francis HOLDGATE to Hannah. They had a son George baptised in 1872. I am interested to find out who Hannah was before she married. Many thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide. Jenny
