Find Ancestors

Cyns my old girl...you would be just as good as anyone else at research if you did it and built up your confidence with it all

any of you read Phil Moir's new blog?

very interesting!

At least they're trying to solve more of the problems


I've got a new one for them ............... I have not received emails telling em that there are new pms yesterday or today, but the white envelope is showing when I come on site, and there is at least one new pm.

Gin,

I did take a look at your Tom Ashton post earlier but I came up with nothing I'm afraid.

I checked the usual, SSI index, Massachusetts marriages, Naturalization (I know that you like US spellings) records, US obits, World War 11 Draft Cards ect.

I checked the US 1930 census just out of curiosity to see if there were any clues. Under age at first marriage Tom has recorded 16. Edith has recorded 38 which if true would mean marriage c1923, the year that she immigrated into the US.

Jonesey was post 24803


which means that Ginny got 24800 :-)

Yea....Gins will be getting 24800 slaps orf of me if she keeps calling me old girl! Humph!

I know it's a bit boring but I just wanted to say that I have been out shopping again to the local Town with my new shopping trolley! (Ist time after the day that I bought it).

I got all the things I wanted, all by myself, and managed them back to the car and home.

OOOhhh - there is no holding me now !!!

Thanks for brekkie Sylvs, but am spilling croissant crumbs all over my keyboard :(


You are so lucky - wish they would bring out the Buckinghamshire records like that.


Cool and damp this morning but, apparently, it's going to be a scorcher tomorrow!! I hope it's not too hot though........never satisfied are we??


The weekends tend to be quiet round here - no doubt some noisy person will be along soon........... :-D

Yes Cynthia - the weather is not too good here at the moment but I hope they are right about tomorrow as I am relying on their forecast.

I have invited everyone over for a barbacue and the grandchildren are excited as they love our little paddling pool.

Goodness knows what we will all do if we have to stay inside - there will be chaos !! :-(

I think Tom Ashton was married before as I can see him on 1920 census with wife (cant remember her name) so that would account for the age at first marriage for both of them

Dea......do you need a license for that trolly. Watch your speed!

Mushed eggs for breakfast please Syl...on wholemeal toast....yum

Can you have a look at this record and read where Joseph was born. I have my own idea and it was not what has been transcribed

Im trying to find him on the parish records

1851 England Census

Edit:

And where the heck is this!


West Yorkshire, England, Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1512-1812
about Joseph Crossley
Name: Joseph Crossley
Birth Date: abt 1792

Im thinking he was born Holmfirth. I just need to be as sure as possible that the baptism is the same Joseph as on the census!
