Another update, adding more confusion and not reflective of the paper trail

Celtic & Gaelic
Northern Wales & North West England 75%
Central Scotland & Northern Ireland 2%
Munster, Ireland 2%
Brittany, France 1%

England
East Midlands 14%
West Midlands 4%

Nordic
Iceland 2%

I’m more confused than ever  :o

The Common Room / Re: divorce records 1960's?
« on: Saturday 11 October 25 15:39 BST (UK)  »
My father’s first marriage was in 1963, his second was in 1973 - will i be able to apply for his first divorce records or will they be closed as he is still living.

Sadly my father now has dementia and didn’t like to talk about his past.

Lancashire / Benson family in 1921 at Scarth Hill, Lathom
« on: Monday 04 August 25 12:50 BST (UK)  »
In 1921 living at Waterworks House, Scarth Hill, Lathom is
Henry Benson aged 49 single stationry engine driver (head)
William Benson aged 48 single boiler fireman (brother)
Ellen Benson aged 46 single home duties (sister)
Arthur Benson aged 40 married crane driver (brother)
Martha Ann Benson aged 37 married home duties (sister in law)
John Harold Benson aged 12 (nephew)

wondered if this house has been demolished to make way for the "new" water tower that was built later

thanks

Just found my first ever "Visitation of God" recorded by the coroner of Burslem, Staffordshire in October 1848

- John Copestick aged 52, a brickmaker of Tunstall, Staffordshire - a time given as "12 at noon"

- his widow remarried in May 1849!

thanks for that, I never would have worked that out!

Mary Flynn was the bride, guessing she was a domestic servant to the Davies family

best wishes
