Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Married in the ??? of the New Synagogue

I don’t know much about the Jewish religion but it could be the The Crypt. . In many Anglican  Cathedrals there are Chapels in the crypt where marriages can take places.

They have drop off and pick up points in numerous shops and Post Offices, there are three within a few minutes walk of my house. You will have to Google DPD drop of points and it will show you where the nearest ones are to you.

Thanks Jebber. Nearest shop to me is at Wells. I'll give them a call. rj

Jeff,
 Check out their website.
If you have a DPD drop off point nearer to you and you can print off a label, you  can post them  for free. You just use any cardboard no more than 60x60x60cm  and no more than 10 kilos when filled.

OXFAM have special  book shops and I understand they take and sell sheet music. I am about to sort mine out and send it to them. Over the last couple of months I have sent them well over a 100 books and still have more to send them. That are very grateful for any kind of book, not just novels. Also music cassettes and CDs.

I have had the same problem, it happened a couple of times yesterday but on the second attempt each time everything worked as normal. Today I have tried countless times and this is the first time  I have managed to get back in.🤞 that it now sorted, I was beginning to get withdrawal symptoms  :)

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Richard Cragg Non comformist d.1847 where buried Lancaster Please

 Have you checked the Parish Churchyard? Every one living in a Parish had the right to burial in the churchyard regardless of religion or non religion. They were often buried in an unconsecrated section.

A lot of people just ignore messages and don’t have the courtesy to acknowledge them.

I tend to look at how many they have in their tree, some have such a ridiculously  large number you know that are not serious researchers so I don’t bother to message them.

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Recommendation for best software
« on: Sunday 22 February 26 16:26 GMT (UK)  »
Different people like the way different software works. There isn’t one that suits all. It also depends if you are working on a Microsoft computer or Apple.

You can download free software or several  programs, they usually have limits to what you can do with them but it gives you the opportunity to try different ones out and see whichever you find most suited to you, then you can purchase the full edition.
