I have been everywhere. Googling, Yahooing, jumping on everything going!!!!!Now trying to tidy it up on FTM as it is easier to move about..Got Jeary cousins coming up from Norfolk next month with their bits......I send them round the churchyards...It is great to get them all involved...........All lost our parents within a few years and this is our way of coping.Recommend it to anyone.......All our parents ashes are together with our grandparents in Earlham cemetry in Norwich. Regularly visited........We meet annually at the grave........

Sandra, I thought you were already trawling ancestry for them?Have you got the full paid for FTM2006? or just a trIal copy? It would be worth you taking a sub on ancestry - if you go throug Lost Cousins website you get the year for £55 and you can then trawl as long as you want for any variation of the name.

Well, this lot seems to fit the bill - Robert is a silk weaver? Im guessing you must have seen them? 1851 ancestry: John Brast abt 1821 Norwich, Norfolk, England Lodger Norwich St Andrew Norfolk >>>Esther Jeary abt 1785 Norwich, Norfolk, England Wife Norwich St Andrew Norfolk Mary A Jeary abt 1822 Norwich, Norfolk, England Daughter Norwich St Andrew Norfolk >>>Robert Jeary abt 1785 Heigham, Norfolk, England Head Norwich St Andrew Norfolk There are about 300 Jeary/Jary born Norfolk on ancestry 1851

Robert Jeary married an Esther about 1830. I have been doing quite a bit of researching and think it may have changed from,Jary, Jermy to Jeary over the years.......In a hole at the moment....Does everyone get lapses>>>>>>>>>

Sandra, are you looking on the 1851 SAMPLE rather than the full 1851 census on there?

According to Ancestry there are 95! Most of them are in Norfolk. Janice

Have got the 1851 census, but I only have two Jeary's on it.........Am I being silly.I was so excited to get it and it is no good for Jeary's and I know there were a lot of them about then.Is some of it missing?
