Hi, I have had the following website for ages, not updated since 1998, but hope it will be of interest. I don't have the actual website address, other than it is Genuki Berkshire, so took the easy way out and just copied the search from Google!

England / John Goodale
« on: Monday 01 October 12 14:51 BST (UK)  »
Does anyone have an interest in John Goodale born 1862 in Limehouse. His mother was Susan Mullin and he married Jane Crow. He also went by the surname of Simmonds.

Scotland / Re: Fencibles
« on: Thursday 20 October 11 13:19 BST (UK)  »
Thanks Harry and Lizzie - my Gt etc Grandfather's first child was born in England apparently, the rest in Scotland, so his militia must have marched off somewhere south in that time. He and his wife Margaret Donaldson were collecting a militia allowance in Linlithgow in 1811-1813. I am desperately trying to find John's parents to go a step back further, but nothing in the militia records so far.

From what Harry says and what I have read it was just as bad with the rioting then as it is now - nothing changes!

I've just read a whole book on the Fencibles (I really should get out more!!) and it's all quite complicated. My Gt etc Grandfather John Mcalpine was "a soldier in the Berwickshire Militia" when he married in Haddington in 1809 and his future daughter in law's father Alexander Murray was a soldier in the South Fencibles when he had a child in St Cuthbert's Midlothian in 1782. The South Fencibles apparently disbanded in 1783, which makes sense as the next 3 children were all born in Barony Lanark.
