The Common Room / Explanation of Conveyances needed
« on: Saturday 30 August 25 10:48 BST (UK)  »
I have a couple of descriptions of conveyances in a Title Register where I don’t fully understand what they mean. Wondered if anyone can explain. I have removed real names for protection of potential living people.

First:
“The land has the benefit of any legal easements granted by a Conveyance of the land in this title dated 27 October 1978 made between (1) Person 1 (2) Person 2 and Person 3 and (3) Person 4 and Person 5 but is subject to any rights that are reserved by the said deed and affect the registered land.”

I know that Persons 4 & 5 were the purchasers at the time. Person 1 was the vendor as far as I know. I don’t know where Persons 2 and 3 fit in. Person 2 is not related as far as I can find but was a surveyor. Person 3 was the son of Person 1.

Is it possible that Persons 1, 2 & 3 all had shares in the property. If so, why is Person 1 shown as the first party and Persons 2 & 3 shown as a second party?

Second:
“The land has the benefit of the following rights granted by but is subject to the following rights reserved by a Conveyance of the land in this title and other land dated 8 September 1931 made between (1) Person 1 (Vendor) (2) Person 2 (Sub-Vendor) and (3) Person 1 (Purchaser):-“

Why is Person 2 described as a ‘sub-vendor’? What does that mean? Person 1 is both the vendor and the purchaser so is this just a case of Person 1 buying out Person 2?

There is a separate Stillbirths Register - NOT available online.
I believe you have to contact GRO at Southport, and prove your link to the stillbirth.
Yes, I knew that. The question was, would a death have been recorded if the child was stillborn. I thought not. Which would suggest all four were born alive.

That's so sad.

Would a death have been recorded for a stillborn? I thought there had to be a live birth before a death was recorded.

Came across these death entries on FreeBMD. Not related to me as far as I know but wondered if anyone knew the story. Maybe quads?

One Name Studies: N to S / Robinson, Robertson, Roberson interchangeability
« on: Wednesday 07 February 24 09:20 GMT (UK)  »
I've been following my Robinson ancestry but have come to a point where the name seems to become Robertson or Roberson. This was in the late 1700s and early 1800s. Was this normal for the names to be interchanged? Anyone else experienced this? Anyone know the reason? Any information welcome.

Gloucestershire / Where would a resident of Colston's almshouses be buried?
« on: Sunday 06 October 19 13:55 BST (UK)  »
Title says it all really. I'm trying to find the burial of Joseph Trump who died in 1874, a resident of Colston's almshouses. There was another discussion on here regarding burials of Colston's residents but it didn't really answer where the burials might take place.

Thanks if you can help.

Have a look at this earlier thread by Bugbear.   Very impressive result using photography.

That's interesting. If I have to go back I'll certainly try that. Setting a layer to display difference can be done in other image editing programs as well.
