1. Re: [SoG] Failed Census Data Bases [1]
Perhaps you have been particularly unlucky with the 1837 1861 census Mike. I have found plenty of errors in it but have been able to identify my own family. The good thing about 1837 is that they react very quickly if you point out the errors AND they refund the money you pay to see and correct their transcription. I'm a satisfied customer.

Thanks so much Mary for that quick reassurance - I've been really frustrated by it. I have had some computer hic-coughs since I did an upgrade to some of my equipment - so wanted to pin the blame on that.......but I really wondered why someone would make things harder! Let's hope that there's a similar reason for A2A as well........ Regards, Catherine Feeling less cold already MWTRE@aol.com wrote: >I had the same problem with Family Search earlier today.

4. Re: [SoG] 1841 and 1851 online census services [1]
I thought I would let this list know how useful my 72 hour access to Britishorigins has been over this holiday period. A 20 year 'brick wall' now has a door, thanks to Britishorgins.com. There seems not to be a marriage at the GRO indexes for my Great Grandparents CAROLINE HUNT and CHARLES FLAY. Caroline without fail on later Census gave her birthplace as Bridgwater, Somerset, but I had never tracked her down, except to find that there are at least 3 Caroline HUNT, all aged 14 or 15 on the 1851 Cen

Er, well Peter, according to their website it's only from tomorrow (Fri 2 Dec) to Monday 5 Dec that they will be closed. Business as normal from Tuesday. I try to keep closures of major repositories displayed in GENEVA: http://geneva.weald.org.uk/ (Along with a list of things to do while they are closed!) = Malcolm.

You may also have been predisposed to hear 'week' Peter.

I've also had this problem with the IGI, as I mainly use it for looking at big blocks (looking for holes in the wall) this got so up my nose that I shut down and went to have a shout at the snow. Also during Freebdm sessions I get told that we are overloaded and would I kindly leave. (which I do) With Origins I get all set up to really use my free 72 hours and then something gets in between and I then wait for another 3 months. 1837 online.. familyhistory online..ancestrycom and kindred. these are the apple

Hi Simon I logged in again and 1841 search bar appeared - it hadn't been there before. So thanks for the tip. I am now curious as to how you get into the 1871 census.

13. merger query [1]
Today's news says that ITV has acquired Friends Reunited (& per an interview with an ITV executive, are gleefully rubbing their hands at the prospect of acquiring this large data base for marketing ITV goods & services). As it was my understanding that Friends Reunited (& their second company Genes Reunited) had recently acquired the 1901 census from the original company who transcribed it, does this then mean that ITV now has Friends Reunited, Genes Reunited & the 1901 census online? Will the

Mary, >Does anyone have further info on this?< Dick Eastman's Newsletter this week mention it. Go to http://blog.eogn.com/ 4th story. It also said, " ITV believes Friends Reunited will tie in well with its plans to launch local TV stations." Read into this what you will!! Jeanne Bunting
15. Failed Census Data Bases [1]
A good E-mail from Peter Dooley after a very frustrating session. 1837.online has been great and has got me miles down the road on every family branch but their 1861 census was a disaster. All got married in the 1850's, I have their marriage certificates so I know they are there but not on the 1861 search facility. I can only conclude that they were badly transcibed. Any body else think the same, no alternative but a visit to the reference library which is not too far away. British origins was my next p
16. Re: [SoG] 1852 NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS [1]
LOL Edna!! I think my g-g-grandfather must have come across your rellie. Besides moving from place to place, having 5 children in 4 districts, he appeared to have been an unbaptised heathen and perhaps most disconcerting, since he was born in 1822, not dying yet.... Best wishes for the new year to you and all my fellow genealogists Kind regards Nick
17. SV: [SoG] will [1]
The Shorter Oxford English Dictionary provides examples of the use of "either" in the late 16th and early 17th centuries: * Either = each of more than two (1588) * Either = any one of more than two (1616) Derek -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: angela hamilton [mailto:ag.hamilton22@skylinkmail.co.uk] Sendt: 10. desember 2005 20:06 Til: SOG-UK-L@rootsweb.com Emne: [SoG] will I have obtained a copy of the will of my 4XG grandfather written in 1830.

18. RE: [SoG] 1841 and 1851 online census services [1]
I have a suggestion for Joan Vinall - why not sponsor the Society getting the parish registers for Cossington. The stages are: 1. The would be sponsor tells the Librarian at the SoG that they could be interested in the idea. 2. The Librarian gets a quotation form the local record office or other holder of the master film/fiche assuming it is possible to get film/fiche for the particular parish. 3. The sponsor is told of the cost. 4. Sponsor pays half the cost and the SoG pays the other half. 5. SoG

Go on to the SOG site and enter origins from there and you can get the free 72 hour access. On the SOG site choose How to access the Society's data online Then Members should go to Origins SoG Members help for detailed instructions of how to access the website.

I have also found that using first names or parts of first names with county etc seems to find a lot of the ones I am interested in. It also enable me to supply corrections to surnames to help update and provide a better index.

23. will [1]
I have obtained a copy of the will of my 4XG grandfather written in 1830. At one point it says '....if either of my children should marry to any advantage.....'. He had 9 children and at the time the will was written at least six and probably eight were still living and none was married. Does the use of 'either' simply imply 'any' or have I got the wrong will (very unlikely) or the wrong children (also unlikely). I'd appreciate any help. Thanks, Angela Hamilton
24. Re: [SoG] will [1]
Hi Angela How many sons and daughters did he have? Could his will have referred to his daughters only? Just a thought... Kind regards Nick Burton
