Thanks suffolksue - I have just tried again various of the websites offered but I get no log in page mostly they show information or a family of Ennever etc.!  My sub expires tomorrow anyway and I have not had a reply as yet.  Thanks for trying to help though it was much appreciated.

Thanks also to suffolkmawther I will try that one and see if I get anywhere.

Regards

Bamba

Hi Bamba

I am completely mystified as to why you can't log in. On the main page, you see login on the left hand side. When clicking on this, you put in the email address that you registered with and your password.
This should take you to your page, which will show your personal details. From here you can do your searches.

Anyway you sould be entitled to a refund,if you haven't been able to use your sub, for whatever reason.

I find it a very user friendly site.

Just out if interest, are you trying to access through Internet Explorer or some other browser. I do have trouble with the site if I try to access through Mozilla Firefox.

I Googled it to get to Boyds Marriage Index - I have not tried any other way.

Thanks

Welcome to Rootschat Red Wine (hope it's a full delicious plum-y Merlot 

Came through bits of Polstead on my way home yesterday, the bits that are nearest to Boxford - Polstead is one of those Suffolk villages which is very scattered.

Have you and Bamba checked out the church of St Mary, very famous around these parts for its unusual roof.  I was there a little while ago taking photographs of a memorial in the churchyard for a researcher in Aus.

Thanks for passing on that website - I have printed the details off and will have a good read of them.  I am now on the other side of the world so it is good to be able to see something of where our ancestors came from.

'Tis said, the (Murder in the) Red Barn was stained with the juice of the cherries which has been stored there after harvesting 

You could have come over to ours, we had a lot of cherries this year, but I think the blackbirds got more than we did
