Census and Resource Discussion / Re: 1939 Register for FindMyPast subscribers
« on: Saturday 14 November 15 15:00 GMT (UK)  »
I hate to plug my own links, but I made a petition to argue against FindMyPast's ridiculous handling of the 1939 Register release. Maybe this will bring it to their attention http://ipetitions.com/petition/FindMyPast-1939-register-charge

The Common Room / Re: 1939 National Register??

At the end of the day, the costs are extortionate and a profit making venture for FindMyPast. I am sure that there may be a number of pensioners who are subscribers who may not be able to afford these costs, especially if they have extensive trees. Clearly, from what I read on the FindMyPast blog, there are countless others who find it too expensive.

I agree entirely, so I made a petition against the extortionate costs FindMyPast are asking. http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/FindMyPast-1939-register-charge

Graveyards and Gravestones / Re: Southern Cemetery Manchester - Section X Plot 141

I read you can't take pictures in Manchester cemeteries without express permission from the council. Seems like a lot of red tape.

Is there any way of finding the causes of deaths in Manchester, without buying or consulting death certificates?

Have you tried 'googling' 'Gomm Street Ardwick'?

There are various results including a photo of a small section in 1965. There are also mentions of adjacent streets which may help you.

Yes. Yes, I have.

Lancashire / Gomm Street, Ardwick

I'm looking for the current whereabouts of Gomm Street, Ardwick, Manchester. It's possible it was destroyed, or renamed. If anyone knows what happened to it, let me know! My great-grandmother lived on there according to the 1911 census.
