Carrol Drew <carrol.drew@sympatico.ca> wrote: John, have you explained, in an archived message, how to locate the SO# for farms; if so, would you please direct me to that message. I don't have luck very often finding a property. =================== Dear Carrol (and other interested listers), I have set out below the strategy I generally follow when attempting to locate a farm and find its UK Grid Reference. 1. Assuming you know the name of the farm, you first need to identify (e.g. from census records) the county and parish (or census district) in which the farm is/was situated. 2. From the same census records, make a note of the names of neighbouring farms or properties. You can find these by looking at the addresses of households enumerated immediately before and after the farm you are researching. 3. Now go to a modern Ordnance Survey map of the parish or area in question. Start with a 1:50,000-scale map from the 'Landranger' series. You'll find a list of 'Landranger' maps, and the areas they cover, on the 'Maps of Wales' feature on my website - www.jlb2005.plus.com/wales/maps/os.htm#os Ideally you need to purchase the appropriate map, but you can study small sections of 'Landranger' maps on the Streetmaps website - www.streetmap.co.uk/ 4. Study the area (parish or census district) in which your farm is situated. If you're lucky, the farm may still exist and be named on the map. If it no longer exists, or if it is too small to be identified by name, look instead for one of the neighbouring farms. This will enable you to focus in on the geographical area where your farm was located. Now check the grid reference of the centre of this area. If you are using the Streetmap website, click on the link in the sentence "Click here to convert/measure coordinates " on a blue panel below the map. This will tell you the 'LR' (Landranger Reference), e.g. SO042283. Also make a note of the 'OSX' and 'OSY' figures which you'll need when using the Old-Maps website (see #7 below). If you are using the actual map, refer to the guidance notes on my 'Maps of Wales' webpages - www.jlb2005.plus.com/wales/maps/ng.htm 5. Now switch to a larger scale modern Ordnance Survey map of the same area. A 1:25,000-scale map from the 'Explorer' series is ideal. Again, it is desirable to purchase the appropriate sheet, but you can study small sections of 'Explorer' maps on the Ordnance Survey's 'Get-A-Map' website - http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/getamap/frames.htm 6. The larger-scale 'Explorer' maps show the names of smaller farms than 'Landranger' maps so you may find your farm is identified on the map. If not, at least one of the neighbouring farms should be identified. If you find the location of your farm on the 'Explorer' map, read off its grid reference after referring to the guidance notes on my website (as above). If you are using the 'Get-A-Map' website, recentre the map so your farm is in the exact centre of the map, then read off the grid reference from the information displayed under the map, where it is quoted in the sentence (e.g.) "Grid reference at centre - SO 042 283 GB Grid". 7. If you can't find your farm on either of the modern maps, try searching on the large-scale 19th century maps on the Old-Maps website - www.old-maps.co.uk To home in on the right area, enter the 'OSX' and 'OSY' figures obtained earlier into the co-ordinates search fields and click the GO button alongside. When the small map appears, click on the 'Enlarge Map' icon on the right-hand tab. A highly detailed map of the area will open in a new window. Searching this map carefully will usually reveal the farm you are seeking. Maneouvre the farm into the centre of the map and then read off the grid coordinates (e.g. 304200, 228300) from the top of the Old-Maps search box. I've employed the above search strategy for many years. I find it yields successful results about nine times out of ten. I'd be interested to know how other listers locate their ancestral properties and identify the relevant grid references.

I wondered if the parish registers for Berriew are available online. l am looking of my KEARN/CARN family who were all baptised there in the 1830s. As l live in Leicester and dont drive its difficult to get to Llandrindod or the NLW. I am visiting my family in Welshpool next week and Berriew is the next village so could go to the church if the registers are still there. Andy

Hi Dennis, The sister was Jane HAMMONDS, she was baptised in 1772 d/o Thomas & Mary (nee DIASS) and married in Berriew 1797. As Francis MILLS was from Bettws Cedewain I assume she went to live there. I haven't checked but I'm travelling down to Powys archives next March and checking Bettws PRs is on my long list of things to do. I haven't found Jane in the census, but I have no evidence of where she lived or when she died, and I'd think that only her death might be in the BMDs, although I haven't actually looked. I use NorthWales BMDs quite a lot - as it gives the sub-district as well as the registration district I've used this to collate with the census details and I managed to pick out the right Jones birth cert first time!
