Hi list, for those with English ancestry the Yesterdays site (link below) has been updated with hundreds of additional names ading to the thousands of those already listed from official documents as found in Derbyshire, England. It includes names of people from all over the British Isles as they for one reason or another were recorded in those documents. Varying section for different documents covered are for Settlement Certificates, whch enabled a person/family to move from one parish to another to live, and with the added proviso that if they fell on hard times and become a burden on their new parish, then the old one, or the place of their last legal Settlement would take them back. Bastardy documents are self explanatory. Law and Order covers all kinds of offences and petitions for help for the poor. Some pretty drastic situations for some folks are listed, Hartington Law and Order, William WARDLE for instance. There are however hundreds more. It may be a lost ancestor turns up, but it will also give a good idea just what your ancestors faced in daily parish life. mike http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~spire/Yesterday/index.htm
