Thanks, Hunnyb22 and Bee, for the advice.

Christiana was definitely a Major. I've no idea who Clara was.

I feel a bit daft, though - it hadn't occurred to me to get a certificate for a "wrong" family!


Roger The Hat.

Hi Roger The Hat...Do I detect a hint of sarcasm in your note? We on Rootsweb try to help other people find their relatives and don't willingly point people in the wrong direction.

If you know which year and location they were born, my suggestion (as before) is to send for their birth or marriage certificates.

Kind regards

NoNoNoNoNo

My apologies if I seemed sarcastic.  The thought of applying for certificates to prove that some one isn't a relative hadn't occurred to me........honest.

I am very new to this hobby (only four certificates collected so far), and this is the first messaging web site I've ever used, so please forgive my blunders.

Also I have limited access to the internet (my son's laptop) so if I don't reply quickly it won't mean I don't want to talk to anyone!

Hi Roger The Hat...You're forgiven,  ;D LOL

Buying certificates can prove expensive, especially if they're not your relatives. However, when this happens people put posts on here asking if they belong to other's families (if you catch my drift?) and you may be lucky and be re-imbursed.

There's loads of sites like this on the internet but I use this as it's so easy to use and navigate (just laziness?) it's free too.

Maybe now you're researching your family tree is the incentive you need to buy your own computer? Or are you new to computers and your son shows you how to use it? We've all been there. :-[

Kind regards

I've only just spotted this thread  ::) 

But I'm going the other way - I've got a guy born in Tadcaster (now North Yorkshire, but then West Riding) who moved to North Elmham, admittedly via Sussex (1841 census).  He was a gardener originally and then set up as a nurseryman and stayed in North Elmham for the rest of his life, his final entry in the 1891 census is as seedsman and florist but his son-in-law appears in the 1901 census with the same occupation, and possibly the same location.  He arrived in Norfolk at some time in the 1840s, married a local girl in 1844, and stayed there.  Why, I haven't a clue!

Hi BumbleB and welcome!

Without any names  we can't help you. Have you tried the LDS website? http://www.familysearch.org some of their records go back to 1400s. Or try www.ukbmd.org.uk for the Norfolk area.

Good luck.

Kind regards

HunnyB22:

I know who he was, his family etc - Joseph Archbell who married Sophia Sands - my point was that this was a case in reverse.  The thread was about people moving from Norfolk to the North, he moved south to Norfolk from the North!!
