Hi Guys,

With all do respect but I didn't realise there was a second page to my thead, therefore I was not ingoring posts. Secondly... I have a 7month baby who has been very poorly for the past few days and unfortunatly I have been squeezing in my family tree when I can.
I like to send PM's beacuse I don't know if I can get back to my computer before everybody disapears for the evening and if I reply.... I don't know if those people will see what I have relpyed back to them

Don't think I don't appreciate the wonderfull information that you are all giving me and thank you for all the time you put aside to help others.

I have all the information about Elizabeth, Robert and their children but It's searching for Roberts Birthplace and his life before the censuses started that I am getting confused on. I know how to use the parish registers bu I didnt know if there was another way to reasearch before the censuses as I am struggling to find his birth

Derek,
I was asking because you confused me by saying that the marriage record was in the Eldersfield parish register and the spelling was correct. I found it in the Forthampton Parish register and Roberts surnmae was written as WALDEN not Waldron. But you still didnt answer my question! I know that he was living in Eldersfield at the time and not that he was born there. I was asking if I was wrong in thinking they were married at the above and whether OF ELDERSFIELD meant married here!

Don't think I don't appreciate the wonderfull information that you are all giving me and thank you for all the time you put aside to help others but I didn't think it was necessary posting that you are wasting your time and I had the impression from you email that you were being funny before I even saw my second page!! Unfortunatly not everybody are experts at this, me included!!
