HI

I am really sorry about my last message I depressed the wrong key.
As I was saying
My William Bright was born c1840 in the Godmanchester area.
His Father's name was John Bright.
William married Mary Britten.
Mary was  a sister of my Great Grand father Samuel Britten.who was born in the Cambridge area c 1840.

In the Prime/Pryme Census (my family mentioned here on this page along with my Bright family).  I noticed some of the Primes/Prymes were "anniutant's".
Does anyone know where I would look to find out where it was coming from, what it is, etc?

The Census 1851 Re: Francis Bright
When researching the 1851 Census, they had me mixed up when they said James was "f" (father) of Francis and living with Francis.  It stopped my search until I learned he is the Grandfather not father.
I just found a gold mine of research for William Bright's father, spouses, children, etc going back into the 1600's.  Many branches. I never thought to search FRANK!!!! 
I searched Frank Bright at www.familysearch.org and there he was and all his family way back. 
So if you are looking for the rest of his family (even the Bentley's would be interested). 
Go to www.familysearch.org and enter: Frank Bright and pick the one that is b. 1806 Needingworth Huntingdon and get ready for the huge amount of info!!
PS: Just for the info Francis "Frank" Brights father is: John Bright b. 1778

Just bear in mind that this is a tree on Ancestral File put together by another researcher, and the entries are not extractions from parish registers. So these trees are only as reliable as the researcher and I know from bitter experience that they are not always accurate (in fact some are simply wrong!)

Ideally you need to use them as just a guide and check them against the parish register.

Definition Of Terms Used On Census Returns

Annuitant ~ The term annuitant could describe someone on an annual allowance as well as someone receiving annual income from an investment. Often however, it was also used for institutionalized pensioners.

Thanks for the advice David,
I will use the found info as a guide and verify it as I go.  Thanks for the tip and reminder.  Hope it is accurate!

It does look pretty well researched, and was done in Canada, not Utah, which is always encouraging!

This message is for Bedfordshire Boy - David:
I know it's prob too late for this question but in your message #3 in this string you said:

But... since I've been here I've discovered a long lost ggg grandmother's marriage so I've finally found her maiden name - Bright, from Somersham! I waiting for a couple of look ups from Huntingdon Record Office as the parish register has not been filmed by the LDS or transcribed. We may have a connection.
Regards
David

Did you find or keep this information of a long lost ggg grandmother with the maiden name of Bright from Somersham?
