Hi Lin Sorry, can't help you with this problem, but I can tell you where the first name of Pockley comes from. The branch that I researched ended when Sarah Lamplugh married Robert Mason in 1831 at Flamborough. Her parents were Matthew Lamplugh and Mary Pockley who married in 1799 at Flamborough. Sarah also had a brother called Pockley Lamplugh. Good hunting Eric

As the list is very quiet at the moment I am hoping another pair or pairs of eyes might spot something I've overlooked. Richard Pockley LAMPLOUGH was baptised 15 May 1849 in Flamborough, Yorkshire son of Robert and Susannah LAMPLOUGH He's here with his parents in 1851 and 1861 1851 census Flamborough HO107/2367 folio 314 page 16 Robert Lamplough, head, mar, 41, shoemaker,Flambro Susannah Lamplough, wife, mar, 32, Bempton Yorkshire John Lamplough, son, 9, Flambro Yorkshire Mary Lamplough, dau, 7, scholar, Flambro Yorkshire Elizabeth Lamplough, dau, 5, Flambro Yorkshire Matthew Lamplough, son,4, Flambro Yorkshire Richard Lamplough, son, 1, Flambro Yorkshire 1861 census Flamborough RG9/3613 folio 88 page 15 South Back Lane Robert Lamplough, head, widr, 50, labourer, Flambro Mary Ann Lamplough, dau, un/m, age 19, house servant, Flambro Yorkshir Elizabeth Lamplough, dau, u/m, age 16, Flambro Richard Lamplough, son, age 12, scholar, Flambro Robert Lamplough, son, age 10, scholar, Flambro Sarah Lamplough, dau, age 5, scholar, Flambro I can't find Richard in 1871 but found this entry in 1871. 1871 census Langtoft RG10/4809 folio 5 page 3 Maiden Cottage Crosby Lamplough, head, mar, 40, farmer of 800 acres employing 10 men and boys, Langtoft Mary Lamplough, wife, mar, 36, farmer's wife, Langtoft Mary Lamplough, dau, u/m, 17, farmer's dau, Langtoft John C Lamplough, son, 15, farmer's son, Langtoft Sarah J Lamplough, son, 13, farmer's son, Langtoft Frederick W Lamplough, son, 11, farmer's son, Langtoft Annie Lamplough, dau, 8, farmer's dau, Langtoft Francis Lamplough, son, 7, farmer's son, Langtoft Jonathan Lamplough, son, 6, farmer's son, Langtoft Harold Lamplough, son, 4, farmer's son, Langtoft Frances E Lamplough, dau, 2, farmer's dau, Langtoft + 12 servants including George Lamplough, serv, 19, farm servant, Flamborough (if this is Richard, then he and Crosby were 5th cousins) There is no George Lamplough b Flamborugh circa 1852 so is this Richard? When Richard married on 19 Nov 1873 his residence was Langtoft. His wife was Susan CRAWFORTH dau of Jesse CRAWFORTH. His father was Robert, a bricklayer a child George Jesse LAMPLOUGH was born in 1880, Sheffield - the birth certificate has his father as George Robert LAMPLOUGH and mother Susan CROFORTH. Surely it's too much of a coincidence to have the middle name of Jesse and mother's maiden name of CROFORTH (albeit spelled differently) for his father now calling himself George Robert to not be the same man as Richard Pockley LAMPLOUGH. Susan and baby George both died in 1880 - June and August respectively. On 3 Oct 1880 he married Susannah LIDSTER - as a widower and now calling himself Richard. His father still being Robert a bricklayer's labourer. Here they are in 1881 1881 census Scarborough RG11/4802 folio 15 page 23 5 Limekiln Hill Richard Lamplough, head, mar, 30, ag lab, Flambro, Susannah Lamplough, wife, mar, 29, Seamer They had two children Florence Harper LAMPLOUGH b 1883 and Ethel b 1887 no sign of Richard Pockley/George on 1881 census Susannah is living in Seamer, Yorks in 1891 with Florence and Ethel. She states she is married however there is no sign of Richard after 1881 census - did he desert Susannah? in 1901 Susannah is living in Scarborough and is a widow I then found this: 1891 census Nottingham RG12/2702 folo 21 page 31 34 Hartford St George Lamplough head, mar, 30, labourer ' corporation', employed. Flamborough, Yorks Sarah Lamplough, wife, mar, 28, Lincolnshire George Lamplough, son, 8, scholar, Hucknall, Notts Thomas Lamplough, son, 7, scholar, Boston, Lincs Elizabeth Lamplough, dau, 4, Nottingham Eliza Lamplough, dau, 9m, Nottingham can only find the birth registrations of Elizabeth and Eliza - and cannot find a marriage between /Richard/George and Sarah Now a very strange entry - coincidence? Compare 1891 and 1911 census entries: 1901 census Pleasley, Derbyshire RG13; Piece: 3134; Folio: 77; Page: 10. Sarah A Smith, head,mar, 40, Helpringham, Lincoln Eliza Smith, dau, 10, Nottingham Annie Smith, dau, 6, Daventry, N'hants I find it amazing that the names, approx ages and places of births are almost identical - but with a surname of Smith. Also can't find Sarah, Annie (Smith) on 1911 1901 census Thurnscoe, Yorkshire RG13/4407 folio 107 page 29 household of Emma Cartwright William Smith, boarder, mar, 47, foreman navvy, worker, Flamborough York George Smith, boarder, u/m, 19, navvy, worker, Uterel, Nottm - Uterel could be mistaken for Hucknall - There are no William Smiths born Flamborough on any census prior to this one. Is this George Robert/Richard?????? Occupation of navvy and corporation labourer very similar 1911 census Scunthorpe, Lincs RG14PN20079 RG78PN1201 RD424 SD2 ED12 SN321 92 Sheffield St, Crosby George Lamplough, head, mar, 50, escavatory labourer, coke oven construction, worker, Flamborough, Yorks Sarah Ann Lamplough, wife, mar, 50. married 33 years, 14 children born alive, 5 still living, 9 who have died Little Hale. Lincs Wilfred Hopwood, boarder, u/m, 45,excavatory labourer, coke oven constructor, worker Great Risington, Glouster George William Lamplough, son, u/m, 29, mechanics labourer, worker Ucknell Torketh? Notts Annie Lamplough, dau, u/m, 16, Daventree, Northamptonshire no rooms 5 signed George Lamplough George died in 1912 and Sarah Ann in 1940 an extract from a local newspaper about her death: The chief mourners were Tom and Kate (son and daughter in law), Lizzie and Gracie (daughter and granddaughter), Eliza and Bill (daughter and son-in-law), Elsie and Lillie (granddaughters) Vera and Willie (grandchildren) Herbert (son-in-law Added to the mix his son John Thomas LAMPLOUGH b 1884 married Sarah Elizabeth WEEKS and had a son Ernest William LAMPLOUGH b 1905 however his mother registered his birth whilst his father was away and when he returned father decreed he was to be be called John Thomas like him! (That came from a descendent) So if he married Sarah who was the Kate referred to in his mother's death announcement? I'm sorry it's such a long mail but will be grateful for any thoughts or comments. Lin

Hi everyone, On Ancestry I have found a marriage for Robert BARRACLOUGH to a ???? HODSON on 18 May 1682, I have checked the image but cannot decipher the bride's christian name, on Ancestry they have transcribed her as Jud HODSON, I am fairly sure this is not correct, some extra pairs of eyes would be great. Many thankyous, Annette WATSON Lismore Australia

Hi Folks, It has been a while since I last asked for any help but wonder if anyone has a connection which might help me. My 3xgt grandmother was a Mary FISHER who had an illegitimate son Richard. Mary had died before 30/6/1837 when her adult son Richard (Bn 3 Jan 1819) was baptisedI have a most likely Birth/baptism of Richard Fisher. - Hull Holy Trinity Ch. BTs - Film #990832- Entry No 3606 .- Baptised 30 Jun 1837 Born 3 Jan 1819 Mother Mary Fisher , a spinster, deceased (before 1837). I did find a likely burial in Holy Trinity BTs Film # 919483 Mary Fisher April 1 1824 Myton age 27 giving an approx birth year of ca 1797 and an age of 22 at time of Richard's 1819 birth, this seems a possibility. Burial not found in Holy Trinity PR from1826-1837 or in St.Mary's upto 1833 If she was born locally there are 3 possible? IGI Baptism entries for a Mary: 1.MARY FISHER Christening: 03 MAY 1796 Cottingham, Yorkshire, England. Mother: ELIZABETH FISHER Batch C106642 1730 - 1812 0919478 Film 6910857 2.MARY FISHER Christening: 19 MAY 1800 Sculcoates, Yorkshire, England.

Batch C107523 So if anyone has one of those Marys in their own family it would help to eliminate 1 or more from the equation. Thanks. Margaret Taylor ( Port Perry.Ont)

They only needed to satisfy the residence and age requirement and they were then able to publish banns in the normal way. A license simply enabled them to marry almost immediately, without having to wait the full 3 weeks for banns, or if they wanted anonymity, or for 'status' sake. A marriage in a parish register by license was usually denoted as such, by an abbreviation, such as 'by L' or 'by Lic' beside the entry, though I have seen a very small number that didn't. Don't forget that it wasn't only the Archbishop who granted marriage licenses, so the other indexes need to be checked as well. As Easington wasn't a peculiar, then I would just check the marriage license (bond and allegation) indexes of the Dean & Chapter of York.

Hello all, >From the parish register for Easington in East Cleveland there is a marriage on 28 November 1609 for John Robinson of the parish of Roxbye and Jane (possibly Myllins or Myllns but difficult to read) of Moresum, parish of Skelton.

Have just received an invitation, purporting to come from the Yorksgen mailing list, to visit a pornographic website. Looks as if someone's mailing list has been hacked. Peter.

Hi all, looking for some help with this one. Am researching soldier Percy Greenwood (1893-1916) who died WW1 16 July 1916, probably one of the soldiers exhumed from the mass grave at Fromelles 5 years ago. He is on the list the Germans handed over to the Brits after they buried the soldiers. I need to find a relative to help with identifying Percy, and at this stage would just like to find anyone to talk to. The key to this is Mabel Butler born 1888 to Thomas (police constable) and Elizabeth BROWETT at Cherry Burton, what a wonderful place name She married the soldier’s brother Thomas K Greenwood in 1915 - they were both working at the Dartmouth Asylum in 1911. Tom b. 1883 Ropley, Hampshire was an attendant and Mabel was a nurse. I am hoping that Thomas K and Mabel had some family, but although I have looked at Ancestry and at Free bmd, nobody seems to pop up as a possible. She came from Yorkshire, Tom comes from Hampshire and they are working in Kent and there a quite a lot of Greenwoods about. Tom’s dad died 1903. By 1915 Tom’s mother and siblings have moved to Western Australia and Percy is off to war in the Australian Army (AIF). I cant find any nieces or nephews in Australia, except for one line from Tom’s brother Reg, but that turned out to have an adoption in that line. Tom’s siblings in Australia, Fred (Everard), Reg, Don, Les, Percy and Agnes. Siblings who stayed in England, Tom. Lily m Albert Baker, 1914 and Elsie (never married). Grateful for any ideas about how to see if there are any descendants of Tom and Mabel out there. I can’t pin point their deaths either and checked to see if they may have migrated but so far no luck there. kind regards Marg O'Leary Fromelles Association. Port Stephens NSW

Hello Marg Mabel did have a younger sister named Doris Kathleen Butler birth registered in the December quarter of 1900. Doris married Tom Smith (Beverley Registration District) in the September Quarter of 1921. Unfortunately this also drew a blank for children - at least in Yorkshire, although it is possible they lived elsewhere. Unless of course this couple also emigrated ?? There was a Doris Kathleen Smith who died in the Wakefield District in April 1989 although the birth date is a bit out - this is the only one with the exact same name. There was also a Doris Kathleen Smith who died in New South Wales in 1987 http://www.namessite.com.au/names/S/Doris-SMITH.html Also Mabel Annie GREENWOOD as follows: Mabel Annie GREENWOOD New South Wales1975 from the same website http://www.namessite.com.au/names/G/Mabel-GREENWOOD.html. There are also some for Thomas Greenwood but I can't see one for Thomas K Greenwood. These may all be red herrings but you never know:) Kind regards Margaret O'Shea

Hi List, I'm at above on 24th Sept if anyone would like a quick look up in Parish Registers please contact me off list Judith

Thanks everyone for all your help on this. I found Firefox has a 'health check' and prompted this which corrected everything It is a relieve to be able to open the image. All the same it is a puzzle how that strange ancestry pop up (which some of you have seen) came about. Alls well now. To those of you using Firefox if you have problems do carry out a Firefox Health check. I do have Google Chrome but find that every time I open it pop ups appear all over the place. Tried to find a way to stop these but there is no tool bar to offer me options. I used to have Facebook on here but one day the text became so tiny. I just couldn't restore it to full text even after closing down the browser and rebooting the computer. I only open Chrome occasionally. Even then pop ups pop up all the time Regards Victor On 11/09/2014 6:00 PM, Lin wrote: > Victor > > No problems at this end. > > Lin > On 11/09/2014 17:09, Nivard Ovington via wrote: >> What browser Victor ? >> >> Does it happen from a different browser? >> >> Sounds like Malware, certainly not getting on Ancestry myself >> >> >> Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) >> >> On 11/09/2014 16:53, Victor Markham via wrote: >>> Is anyone else having problems prompting the census images on Ancestry? >>> >>> Every time I do this I get a load of pop ups which I haven't a clue >>> what >>> to do with.
