Hi Martin & Annette There have been the odd incorrectly linked images or wrongly assigned datasets but in this case I don't think that is the case The dataset comes up under UK records and I can access it via an account that only has UK records access So it appears to me to be something on Annettes computer stopping the access Annette, do you have any problems with other images? or just the Yorkshire quarter sessions, and is it all images in that dataset or just a few Do you have a sample for me to try?

I was wondering whether Ancestry has made some sort of mistake in the way they flag access to those particular records, it has been known to happen previously and can take some time to get them to correct. I have a separate Ancestry free account that I sometimes use when they have these free offers to check what is available so I can pass on details to friends who are not Ancestry subscribers.

Those of you with links to Flamborough may be interested to know that virtually all the graves in the churchyard and the extensions can now been searched and located at https://billiongraves.com/ . Many have additional information, particularly regarding marriage dates/maiden names, and this will be gradually added to. The site will not only show you a photograph of the grave (some rather clearer than others), but also a very accurate location for the site within the cemetery if you wish to visit. There are a few which are illegible, but still included. If you happen to know who these people are then please help to complete all the graves. Martin Cross Brighton

Hi everyone, Thank you for your replies, I do have a UK subscription to Ancestry. I have tried using Mozilla and Firefox but cannot access the images only the records, so, will be using Martin's link, this is all very strange, especially as Lin mentioned Ancestry have free UK & Commonwealth Records this weekend. Thanks to Martin and the link he sent me I can now access the images. Happy hunting, Annette

Can you access other UK records? I would have thought they are open to those with a UK subscription but it is possible that Ancestry has made a mistake in the way they have been set up.

Thanks everybody for your help. I had looked at Genuki for Silkstone but did not think to look at the Nearby places link. For me, the interesting thing about finding these ancestors on my LEE line is that it puts them into roughly the same area as my SENIOR ancestors and not far from my GUITE ancestors even though my father’s family appeared to come from the Derbyshire side of Sheffield in the 20th century. Distance is relative, of course; the new shoots of my tree are now found much closer to you Marg, on Vancouver Island.

I am attempting to link Thomas Longstaff, born c.1787, Great Ayton and buried there in 1828 [whose daughter Mary (born 1810 Great Ayton) married Robert Hutchinson in in 1831] with Richard Langstaff, Mariner, who died in 1769 in Great Ayton. I have seen the pedigrees online of the different La(o)ngstaff families of Yorkshire, Co.Durham etc. but they do not provide sufficient information to enable me to make the connection. I have also checked the PRs of Great Ayton 1600-1812 published on archive.org. Any help or suggestions welcomed. Ruth in Hampshire

I have just found an ancestor baptised in Silkstone parish church in June 1699. It looks as if his father was of “Smithies” but the writing is not clear. He could have been a smith but other entries in the parish register say things like “of Silkstone” after the father’s name so I guess that “Smithies” is a place. Does anybody know the of such a place near Silkstone? Peter in France Sent from Mail for Windows 10
