I wonder if there is anyone who may be willing to look for an inquest report into an accidental drowning of a young lad in the River Aire at Low Fold, Leeds, in June 1981 please? I am happy to reciprocate with searches at either Dorset or Hampshire Record Offices/libraries etc. If so, perhaps they would contact me off list and I can provide full details. Thank you. Tracy

Judith, This is a voice from the past but I always stay in contact with friends who have helped me. Joan and I sold our house in New Hyde Park, Long Island, New York. We built a house in Florida and now live in Florida, My new address is, Rupert and Joan Waite 3320 Baltic Sea Blvd. Tavaras, Fl. 32778 waiterw@optonline.net We are 65 and have retired. So far we have an apartment in Patchogue, New York which is also on Long Island. We come up in the summer and December to visit with our kids and grand children. What a life, I don't think I could work any more. Take care, and hope your family is fine! PS, We are close to joining the "Mayflower Society". It has been a long hall. No matter what side of the family it is, we always come back to mother England. Rupert

Many thanks for trying it Sheila. Much appreciated.

Thank you for your response Sandra, and I apologise for the delay in replying, but I have been away for a few days. I had not realised that licence could provide me with much information. The previous ones I have looked at have not been particularly informative, but I'll certain try to obtain this one. You never know, it just might name John's father......... Most of my research is done when I am in Switzerland, but I am a member of the Society of Genealogists. Hopefully they will have access to the licence, or can point me in the right direction. As you say though, it might be more useful for me to check for records held the county records office. I have no indication that any of the Straffords were non-conformist, but it is beginning to look like the only explanation for the missing birth. But that still does not explain the presence of Joshua and Elizabeth Strafford with John and his family in Scrooby.....

I'm sure I'm telling you how to suck eggs but here goes......... You need to systematically look at all possible church records. Registers Banns registers Church wardens record books Settlement records etc etc Wills How to get them? Do the research yourself at the local / county archive Pay some one to do it for you Go to your nearest LDS centre and order the records there - they have to be viewed there also. To see what records they hold look at the Familysearch site and go to library page - follow the links from there. It will also tell you the address of your nearest LDS familyhistory centre. If I remember the cost of borrowing the film is about £2.50. If you have found info on the Familysearch site send to the County record office for a copy of the entry - sometimes the original contains more info than is shown on the LDS site Check how many churches are in the areas of interest. You may find that some of the records are only available from the county records office. Its easy to miss records if you just look at other holders of records - LDS SOG etc. Look in other places - Pallots for instance. You can also borrow records from the Society of Genealogists. A little costly but you would need to work this through for yourself. You have to be a member. The following figures are those I paid and are about a couple of years out of date. I paid £40 for a years membership, this entitled me to use their library free [£17 per day for non members] - the cost of films, fiche, books etc was free but you have to pay postage to and fro. They insist on recorded postage not just the ordinary stuff so a little pricey. I then bought myself a second hand fiche viewer - not necessary but I was doing a lot! If you do get a film/fiche you can use your local library facility to view it. You can keep the film for one month.

Apologies for taking so long to reply Bev. I've been away for a few days. I had found these names, plus several other entries for Richard and Joshua Strafford in Yorkshire, on the IGI, but thus far I have either eliminated them, or have been unable to link them to my family. All very frustrating, but I have not (quite) given up yet! Regards Margaret On 22 Aug 2007, at 23:29, LGPBEV@aol.com wrote: Using the IGI, there seem to be some good possibilities not too far away. There are Richard Straffords in Thorne and a 1766 bapt of a Richard to a Joshua in Wentworth. So it seems that the names may be common to the family and the area.

This copies the whole screen to the Windows clipboard. 2) Open up your graphics program and import the image from the clipboard. In Adobe Photoshop Elements it's the command "From clipboard" in the dropdown file menu. This puts the image into the program. 3) Cut out the extraneous stuff around the side (icon bars etc) and just save the bit you want - in this case the page from the census. 4) Save it in a format that doesn't create too large a file. I use jpeg or PDF, in both of which it can usually be viewed quite adequately. -- Roy Stockdill Editor, Journal of One-Name Studies Guild of One-Name Studies website: www.one-name.org 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."

You know, email is not an instantaneous medium. Some people don't receive messages as quickly as others, go away to (generously) spend their time finding out an answer, and then post it - only for it to arrive at the same time as the same thing by other people! Hey, it happens. I wouldn't get upset about it, I'd rather the same answer many times over to no answer at all because the person who knows it is inhibited. ..Do we need repeats of soooooo many anwers to the same question or is it time to unsubscribe from this list too?? And I wouldn't want you or anyone to unsubscribe, the beauty of these lists is the sheer amount of knowledge which is the sum of all our own little bits. Maggie
