Hello Helen I must have missed this site. Can you give me the URL so that I can look up St Barnabas (if there is one?)

2. [SOG] FamilySearch website [1]
There have been substantial changes to the www.familysearch.org website, particularly in searches available on Ancestral File and the IGI. The main ones are: * continue to the "next 200" after a search gives an initial 200 hits * save as GEDCOM (IGI events, Ancestral File pedigrees and families) * specify a country and a range of years * choose exact spelling * parent search does not require surname of mother, just forename/surname of father, forename of mother Searching the Family History Library Catalog

4. [SOG] Socman [1]
As it happens, I looked up "sokeman" in the O.E.D. the evening before seeing this query in the digest. I find it rather sad that I now have to use the magnifying glass to read the small print in the compact edition! Anyway, while a socman or sokeman is a socager, this has nothing to do with scutage. Scutage was payable by a tenant by knight service in lieu of providing one or more (or a fraction of one or more) knights for forty days a year. However, military tenures were converted to socage in the seven
5. [SOG] Naval Personal Numbers [1]
Our local British Legion is compiling a Roll of Honour of villagers who have served in the Forces since 1940. Unfortunately one of our older residents has forgotten his Naval number. Can anyone advise where we could get this info. Thanks. Mike Rose at Brassington, Derbyshire - just outside the Peak Park!

Hi Barney, When I try to order something from the SOG it shows a cookie not allowed page ( I have set my browser to Do not accept cookies ) after I try to confirm my order, or is this to do with the JavaScript.

Then pages for each county showing for each parish the dates of - the deposited original registers (and where deposited) - those on the IGI - local marriage indexes - copies of registers at SoG - Boyd's marriage index - copies of regs. not at SoG - Pallot's marriage index - non-confirm. records at the PRO - a column I haven't worked out but i

12. [SOG] UK-INfo Disk [1]
I have only just started 'playing' with the Uk-info disk distributed with November's edition of Personal Computer World. When I commence the installation process, I get past accepting the licence conditions and also identifying the folder I would like it to install to - then it hangs. I have tried a number of times and it happens at the same place every time. The task manager says 'it is not responding'. I have closed down all other programs (Office bar, virus checker etc.) before starting. Does anyone h

14. Re: [SOG] Burke's Landed Gentry [1]
The last member of my family to appear in BLG was my father who appeared in in the I think 1911 edition at the age of 1! The landed bit ended around 1922 after the house in Gory was burnt in the troubles though there remained some gound rents in Dublin until sometime in the 1960s when my father managed to get rid of them - thank goodness he didn't leave that problem to me. But I think somebody must have done a bit more than just return the galley proofs because the early seventeeth century stuff changed i

16. [SOG] New Shorter OED [1]
The December issue of PC PRO has the Shorter OED on its cover disk. You may have to hunt if you want the CD version, WHSmith in Oxford seems to have taken to stocking mostly the DVD version of the magazine. If you have 158 Mbyte free on your hard disk you can drop a copy on there and avoid having to load the CD to use it ... Once installed the "New SOED" program fails to recognise the PRPRO CD as a NewSOED CD, you have to cancel and then show it where the data file is (it's the only file in the "Data" dir

18. [SOG] Photographs in genealogy programs [1]
This may be slightly away from the original question, but if Keith has a once-only opportunity to copy borrowed family photographs, it may be worth getting a photographic copy rather than a digital one. I have had copies made by Boots - in our Ealing branch (and I assume others) they have an in-store machine which looks like a photocopier but produces photographic copies. Quite expensive, about #5 per photo, but I decided Samuel Hawgood photographed in the 1860s was worth a fiver. (For one or two photos, th
19. [SOG] Letters of Administration [1]
Hello Listers, I am wondering if anyone can help me with the following? An ancestor of mine was granted letters of administration in respect of her husband's estate. He died at the age of 34 years without a will. She was bound to pay the Lord Bishop of Chester 500 pounds within 6 months of her husband's death unless she presented the Court with the details of the estate. I presume this was a legal strategy to ensure that the estate was administered in a proper manner and that a "true and perfect inventory"

21. [SOG] Family Search site - GEDCOM [1]
I have tried a GEDCOM download from the IGI on the LDS FamilySearch web site. The GEDCOM is version 5.5, equivalent to that use in PAF 3.0 (and most current genealogy packages). The GEDCOM is different from that for the same events obtained from CDROM. On the Internet version, the source referenced is a call number within the Family History Library at Salt Lake City - e.g. "0919743". On the CDROM version, the source reference is a description in words of the source - e.g "Extracted birth and/or christenin

Hi all, Does anyone know the above please, is it still standing and if so what type of building is it ? Do you know where the Electoral Rolls for 1898-1900 for the above are ? I am looking for the CARNE family who were there in 1898. Regards Dave.
