Hi.....maybe Mr. Hadcocke was the builder of the homes rather than the mill owner, or owned the land on which they were built. Did you ever find out what dialing meant?? Fascinating! mary lou In a message dated 2/28/2010 1:19:07 P.M. Mountain Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Hello Mary Lou, I was thinking along those lines myself. I don't know who owned the mill originally but in later years it was part of the Ramsden estate. I know the Spiveys had a cottage near the Kings Mill in the early 1600s. The Spivey "ing" is shown on an early 1600 survey map of Almondbury made by William Senior, "professor of Arithmetic, Geometry, Astronomy, Navigation and Dialing". I have a print of this fascinating map which, I think, was obtained from the Huddersfield Library. "Dialing" had me a bit puzzled as I didn't think they had phones in those days! Oh yes, the ing was next to the millpond!

Remember that Hugh Wallis has not updated his batch numbers for some time, there are further entries on the IGI itself at the familysearch site with batch numbers that do not appear on Hugh Wallis's site. These entries have been added to the IGI since Hugh last updated his site some years ago. So if you don't find the parish you are looking for in amongst those batch numbers on the Hugh Wallis site then do look at the IGI at familysearch too because what you seek may be there because it is one of the the more recent additions. Regards Jenny DeAngelis Spain. <<Thanks for sending me the link to IGI batch numbers again. I knew it had to be somewhere to hand and forgot about looking for Hugh Wallis. >>

Hi Jean I also have misplaced the IGI list, could you send it me please Many thanks Regards John ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jean Belfitt" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, February 27, 2010 3:48 PM Subject: [WRY] re IGI batch numbers > Hi Brian > > Thanks for sending me the link to IGI batch numbers again.

Hi Brian Thanks for sending me the link to IGI batch numbers again. I knew it had to be somewhere to hand and forgot about looking for Hugh Wallis. All the best Jean

testing,CAROL .

Has anyone ever heard of this street in Sowerby, parish of St Peter's? It's mentioned in a list dated 1812 but I can't find any other reference to it, including my normal resource of Malcolm Bull's Calderdale Companion. There's a similar-named street in the centre of Halifax, but that's far too far away. It should be close to Broad Lane, Hey End, Higham ... all existing names in Sowerby. cheers Maggie

Hi Sharon, I worked with a girl called Jean Lorraine Addey from Kirkburton back in 1958-60 she married someone and went to live in Switzerland so I don't know any more, but I do have a photo of her.

Thanks to those who responded re Fox family of Felkirk. I have to say, the West Riding list really is the most helpful and friendly lot of people. I am a member of 4 other lists and they can't hold a candle to the people on this one for the help and ideas they give time and time again. I wonder if anyone can answer this one for me? I once had a link to a list of towns and villages which showed the IGI batch numbers for each church. It might have been something that Roy Stockdill had put together, although from memory, it wasn't just Yorkshire. My link has got lost in changing computers, and I've tried searching searching Genuki without success. It's probably staring me in the face and I can't see it. Can you help? Thanks again to all Jean

Hi Listers, Has anyone come across this book, and if so would you be able to give me a quick review/summary please, is it a beginner's book?

If you have time, read as much as you can about it on their website so you will know who and what is going to be there. There is so much of it, it will be easy to miss some of the stands or workshops you may really want to visit. If you go to the website http://www.whodoyouthinkyouarelive.co.uk/ click on 'Events' and then 'Exhibitors' Print the list out and then work out which stands you don't want to miss. Then click on 'Visiting' and then 'Show map'. Print out the floor plan and work out where the most important stands you want to visit will be. The Yorkshire stands are 32, 33 and 34 (pink section on the map) opposite Ancestry.co.uk (in blue on the map) Also under the 'Event' section, you can download a printable version of the workshops for each day. There are so many of them, that you really need to work out which ones you are likely to want to go to. Some are by ticket only, they are free but I think you will need to obtain them as soon as you arrive. They were available in advance but the Saturday (advance) ones have already sold out. If you haven't time for any advance preparation, wear your comfiest shoes and as Roy said "Just enjoy the day" Kind regards Brenda www.yorkshireancestors.com

Last year I had too few printed and they were all snapped up. However, the solution is simple - if they've all gone by the time you get there just leave your e-mail address with me, or with someone on the Yorkshire stand, and I will send you a copy of my PDF with all the details. -- Roy Stockdill Genealogical researcher, writer & lecturer Newbies' Guide to Genealogy & Family History: www.genuki.org.uk/gs/Newbie.html "There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about."

If Trevor is on the list or if anyone can pass my email address on to him please I am trying to contact him. I have just been on the HDFHS site but I get nowhere at finding any members on this. My last email from him was 1999. He is definitely the last one I need to contact from my notes. Jean Spence

I've got tickets for tomorrow :-) Anyone been before? Any last minute tips, advice, etc for someone who hasn't been to a family history fair ever before ... and is starting with one of the biggest?!

Are you going to THE big event this coming weekend, from Friday February 26 to Sunday February 28, namely the Who Do You Think You Are? LIVE National History Show at London's Olympia? See http://www.whodoyouthinkyouarelive.co.uk/ for details. If so and you have ancestral interests in Yorkshire, then do make a special point of coming to see us! We are the London Group of Yorkshire Family History Societies and we will be right alongside Janice Wood of Yorkshire Ancestors (www.yorkshireancestors.com). We are part of the Society of Genealogists Family History Show 2010 and our table numbers are 32, 33 and 34. We and Janice will have lots of goodies to sell, including Yorkshire books and CDs. Janice will have on her table copies of what promises to be a must-have book of the year - hot from the printers - "Pitfalls and Possibilities in Family History Research" by Pauline Litton, the doyenne of Yorkshire genealogy. See http://www.pitfallsandpossibilities.co.uk/ for more details. On Saturday at 12.0 noon until 12.45 p.m. we will be making a special presentation in the SoG's regional forum lecture theatre on Yorkshire family history. Michael Bunting, of the London Group, will give a brief introduction, then he will hand over to myself and Jackie Depelle. I will speak about Yorkshire record offices, archives and specialist museums and there will be printed handouts to be distributed to whoever wants them. Then Jackie, Chairman of the Yorkshire Archaeological Society's Family History Section in Leeds and of the Pudsey Civic Society, will talk about Yorkshire genealogy resources on the Internet. She, too, will have handouts available. If you are visiting the show and have Yorkshire interests, then do come by and see us! Naturally, we'd like you to buy something (!) but if you just want a chat or advice on researching your Yorkshire ancestors, then you will be assured of a warm welcome. If you have Yorkshire ancestry and live in the south-east within easy reach of London, then pick up a leaflet that tells you all about our group and how to join. Look forward to seeing some of you this weekend! -- Roy Stockdill Genealogical researcher, writer & lecturer Newbies' Guide to Genealogy & Family History: www.genuki.org.uk/gs/Newbie.html Chairman London Group of Yorkshire Family History Societies "There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about."

Does anyone know what "Wearing" is??? I don't think we will ever know the exact cause of death. It was probably one of those illnesses that causes a person to slowly wither away to nothing and probably quite literally starve to death. This could be just about any disease that killed slowly with few outward signs of illness. Diabetes, Cancers, Anorexia, M.S., A.L.S., Cystic Fibrosis and many others that have names and treatments now but back then were just " He/she just wasted away and died." There were no methods of treatment and few tests anyone could do to figure out what was wrong with a person unless they showed obvious symptoms .such as fever, coughing, bleeding, lumps, bumps or pock marks - the rest were just lumped into the category of "Wearing away" Most diseases have only had names applied to them within the past 100 years.
