Hi ,
Mo I'm home until the next time ..LOL

Shelly ......you don't ask for much do you ...??? Doctors notes !! them doctors would be worth a fortune making a lot of dosh telling all about ancestors ..LOL

H'mm just had dinner lovely...but eaten too much...

Now Shelly I don't think you will need a look up then.?

marilyn my dads brother moved to exeter devon i have his death cert
he died in 1988

marylin it was just a thought that if we could see DR records thay would tell us an alfull tolt about how ancesters lol

Shelly I am not sure that you can get doctors records,as they are confidential arn't they. It's like me going to my doctor and asking her questions about Roly,she's not allowed to tell me legally.
Welcome home Marilyn. Are you staying for a while,or are you off again soon.

Good evening Shelly .. and All,

Just come in from the garden, had a little wine with my sister & brother in law.

Now going to get dinner.....spaghetti bolonaise .

Anyone else need a look up in Devon Records ??????

Shelly I have never heard anyone being able to look at Doctors records,
I assume you mean OLD ones ..??

good evenig good evenig good evenig

its been lovely and worm here today in london

so is there away we can look at the DR records dont serpos there is

welcome Home Marilyn hope you had a good time in Cornwall it is nice to go back to places you know I always find when I do I get a big let down as they never seem to as I remembered. the houses are smaller than I recall the places are different. I always find a building or house I never knew was there.
I would love to go back to where my Father in Law mother in Law lived in Cambourne my young brother in Law went there two years ago and said the open spaces had been built on it made it feel more like a town than the little community we remembered.
Mo I know what you mean my gran looked after me when my mother went back to work she was a dressmaker for a well known designer in the city and I cannot recall the name now I will when I dont think too hard.
I use to go around to my other Gran and get her shopping and sometimes stayed to dinner the family were so close every weekend we gathered at Gran Horwoods it was always party time.

rita

Hello everyone !!

I'm back..LOL

Just been and unpacked and washing in the washer.

Now where has the sun gone ?
Who's got it ??????

Rita I will be going to the PDRO next week so give me all you want me to check up on I'm going to make an appointment on line for a reading .


Where did Sue go.? well that was a quick look in ..LOL

be back my neighbour at the door....

Ello Ello girls.
Guess who's back, MOI. Did you miss me Noooooo course ya didn't.
Oh excuse me,sorry Pauline you did. lol
Like Pauline,I didn't know that monks were allowed to marry. I thought that they married into the church.
I know that a friend off mines sister,became an apostulate nun. She remained with the convent for a few years,but decided that it was not for her.
She later married and had two sons. But the poor woman lost her husband,in a motor cycle accident.

Oh Linda,why don't mum's realise,that the sooner they beggar off,the sooner the child will settle. It upsets the child more if they hang around.
And as you say,the little one soon settles after mum has gone.
Enjoy the BBQ at your brothers this weekend. It's nice to be popular isn't it.

Rita all my mum's family lived in the same road when I was young,and it was nice to be able to pop from one family member to another,without having to leave the road.
I really do believe that families were closer then,than they are these days.
And I mean closer in the fact that they shared all the problems that arose,between them. IE- any illness, there was always a family member
to drop everything,and take over the running off the household.
Take my nan for instance,when my mum had her nervous breakdown,nan took over and looked after us.

My god Shelly,you are excelling yourself. Who was the one who said she did not like to write long posts. lol
So you won't be seeing the muppets this weekend then.
You take it easy mate,don't keep tiring the brain out,with all this searching
for rellies.

yes please Pauline I want some sunshine NOW. it is so miserable when the sky is grey n o one smiles at you when you go out.
I took two bags of clothes to the charity shop this morning them an d the women in the news agents were the only ones smiling.

I need to sort dinner out now fish and small pots and peas. so it wont take long to do.

See BOAC are now going to go on strike. all these poor people will now have to make other arrangements for ther holidays.

Rita

Oh Well K arrived in a srop again this morning crying and clinging to her Mummy. Mainly because M isn't here as she is on holiday. Mum stayed for ages trying to calm her down to no avail!!! But surprise as soon as the door is closed she stops. Well she has been watching some childrens programmes on TV and promptly fell asleep !! So I have cut the back grass, no point in just sitting in here with her.
Will do something more exciting when she wakes up and after she has picked at her lunch. Not a very big eater.
It is still overcast but humid and heavy.
I have a headache..................... so maybe I should go and lie down in a darkened room.LOL Only joking as if I could.

Enjoy the rest of the day everyone

Linda :o) XxX

Morning everyone, it's beautiful here, really hot, and lovely and sunny.

I'll try to send some of it down for you Rita.........Because you're important!! LOL

I've been out working in the garden, trying to get some of the weeds out before I go to the hospital to see my sister.

Shelly, I've had a look at my death certs and they're all signed by the registrar.

Linda, I'm sure you've got more hours in your day than I've got.

Where was Mo yesterday?

Marilyn, did monks get married back on those days, or did they just have kids?

off to have a proper look at some of my death certs

Hi All

It is not a nice day the forcast said sun where is it ? come on who has the sun ?
Shelly Like you I lived in the same house my Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother lived in. Grandfather died before I was born but we lived with Gran I walked the street where my Dad was born where all the family lived when they married they stayed in the same area. also my Mothers Parents the Horwoods they lived close to each other Hundreds of them, in those days the family ment just that close family. so I can say I was married in the same church, had my children christened in the same church used the same little lanes and even some of the shops.that had been handed down in that family..
MY sister who is 6 years younger than I am always tells her daughter to ask Aunty Rita she would know as her mememory is good. so anything she wants to know about the area and surrounding areas I can usually help.
SEE I CAN BE IMPORTANT AT TIMES>
I think I better sort out my pills now and have a cup of tea before I have my shower.
Rita

Morning All
Well we had a lovely meal last night. Friends left quite early, before 10:00. Hubby slept in the chair til midnight.I went to bed about 10:30.
Have been invited to my brothers on Saturday for a BBQ, so off out again. As one invite is cancelled another fills the space.
Bit ovecast again this morning.
Need to find things for K to do this morning.

Be back later

Linda :o) XxX

PS for Shelly Ancestry is back

ancestry trees are down

rita its ok the church is my end and the records should be in my local librey iv just not had the time to go and have a look the church name is holy trinaty
and the spot it was on is now a but turn around point has been for years

in a way i feel lucky that i have walked the same streets and lived in the same streets as some of my ancesters even been in the same shops as them way befor thay have been pulled down and thinking of it had the same DR sergary as some of them cos how DR used to be in a very old house that had been there for years and years

Hi Shelly
I dont know what area you are looking for that church but if you have a local Archive centre in that area you will find they have a list and photos of all the churches and school in that area from way back
Let me know what church and what area I might be able to help I am not promising but may b e able to. . if it is an area I know of.

Rita

evening all

marilyn ask relly if she would like to swop house
i have a photo of the font some of mine and hubby lot was bapties in
st andews church st andrews road

but one of the churches i need was pulled down a long time ago shame cos i remember seeing it when i was a kid

Marilyn I bet you were pleased to find all that out. I have Vicars in my family tree on my Father side way back to 1664 they started from wealthy families and the first son became the sir and the second a vicar.
I was gobsmack when I found how manty there were. Grandfather family has started out as Quakers on his mothers side I have the whole list of the quakers someone sent me .
His father side was the vicars and farm labourers.
The headstones in the churches have all crumpled when Sheila and I went o look and them the vicar told us this had happened in a lot fo the churches so they have list of plaques on the walls in some of the churches with the names listed. our Mullock family were on a pillar outside their church on their estate. no headstones anywhere in the cemetary.
I suppose this will happened in future when people look for our graves..
so when do you come home ? did you get to Looe and Polperro ? I think I might go down there next year if I am still around.


Rita
