YIPPEE! Oops. Sorry for shouting! I've finally found my last two 2xg-grandmothers, giving me a complete set. These ladies are Jane RICH of Stoke Climsland, CON, and Charlotte BEACHAM of Chew Magna, SOM. Because so many in this list helped me in tracking them down, I wanted you to know! Kind regards and thanks Joy

Hi, The Hill Paul building in question was in Stroud, Glos, not Calne. If you ever travelled to Stroud railway atation, you could not miss it - a real landmark and a trajedy if it were to be demolished. The firm was, indeed, a textile firm, but I am afraid I do not have any details.

Another list of Wessex-plus strays in Jersey (not New Jersey) in 1851 and 1871. I have noted where there are others of the same surname at the same reference and have assumed that they are the same family. I have also noted where those in one list also appear in the other index - they usually gave their birthplace as 'England' in the other index. This list does not include all the strays - I will have missed some and others will have given their birthplace consistently as England. I do not know anything further about anyone on this list.

Hi fellow listers I am looking for Joseph ISGER b.1824, Frome. He appears in the 1841 census as a servant in Frome but then disappears. His parents, Joseph and Elizabeth also disappear and do not follow their younger children to Lewes, Sussex. The 1881 census lists a Joseph ISGER, said to be born in Shepton Mallett and I wonder if there is a link? If SKS has the time to look at the 1851 census for Shepton Mallett for these absentees, it would be much appreciated. Restating my main interests after absence and a period of lurking.
