    3. I was sitting last week in Beverley archives trying to track down some elusive catholic ancestors. I was reading a parchment document about how horses and guns of Catholics in the ERY were rounded up and removed. Then I read the date the document was written -1745  Yorkshire is further north than Derby so no wonder the authorities did this. Ask me off list if you are not from the UK and do not understand the significance of the date, otherwise you might be flamed! Chris
