Right, Wendy,
It's in my book alongside David's long list...

Yippee de do dah! David what a wonderful surprise!
Thank you!


I had thought that if you found the Register (the Church didn't know where it was!) I could ask for the individuals!  But you have beaten me to it!
I'm so very grateful. Between Keith and yourself I have filled in a lot of gaps which I could never have done!

Now when is someone in your family going to  marry in Great Catworth - all I want is the Faireys after 1860!

How did the wedding go? Warm enough?
Best Regards
Marlene

Hi Marlene

Hope that's helped to thaw you out!

Wedding was great thanks, not too hot, but I'm not looking for another. Weddings are like cigarette packets, they should carry a Government health warning. They can seriously damage your financial health.

Re Great Catworth and your post on the Hunts board, I'm not aware of any transcription available for purchase - it's not a parish that's available from Hunts FHS and I'm not aware of any other source. It's possible that the Records Office may use an internally produced transcription (they had one for another parish that they checked for me when I used their research service last year)

Let me know if you need the 1891 or earlier censuses for the Ripley Fairys

 You beaut -glad it all went well and may the damage to the Bank Balance not be too bad!
I meant to tell you that Bela WAS a fella! Definitely !  Heaps of hair and a moustache in the only photo I have of him! Not that always signifies masculinity, but you know what I mean!

I have a feeling that it was Jim Bundy (Eaton Socon transcriptions) who mentioned the Transcriptions at Gt Catworth  so I'll check with him. I know I saved the email...somewhere!
So..ooo envious of you researching 500 years ago! I can almost  smell the must! I thought I'd better tidy up great gran's cuzzies in the 1800s first before I  attempted to get beyond poor old William who married in Riseley 1780.
Suspect it would be beyond my resources and yours and Keith's patience to extend further back!
Many thanks for the offer of the censii for the Ripley Faireys - I have the family back from 1901 - it was just finding the details of the descendants and I am so pleased about that!
Many thanks forever!

Hi,
if you are still going to the records office, could you possibly look up a couple of people on the Dullingham poor relief records.
They are:
Phillipa Bye, she died in 1774 and was buried on the 18th of August.
Elizabeth Bye, she died 1779 and was buried May 7th.
On the burial records from Dullingham, both were listed as Widows and collectioners, and i'm told that a collectioner means that they were in receipt of Parish relief.

Many Thanks

Hi Keith and all.
If you get a spare moment would you please put this in the book for a potential lookup.

Anne Gee marriage to Robert Howlett 10 June 1822 Chesterton, Cambs.

Am trying to make sure she's daughter of James and Susanna so hoping you can find another family member listed as witness or something similar - yeah I know live in hope!!!!!! actually any details greatfully appreciated.

What did you make of the ball tampering incident? Gonna be interesting series!!
Hoping to go to a day of the Adelaide Test at the end of the year.

Ciao for now. Thanks in advance,
Lilygirl.

Lilygirl.
That must be one of the St Andrews parishes, Cambridge, I think.  Will look it up, though I've been unable to get to the CCRO for some weeks.  Very envious of your being able to get to that Ashes Test.  We're hoping that Flintoff is fit by then.
And Mafric (Marie), I hadn't forgotten your request and will have a look up in Dullingham for you - when I manage to get to Shire Hall; but I don't think it will be now until the second week in September at the earliest...

Hi Keith,

I have just found out that some of my ancestors were not my ancestors, and now have a brick wall.  Would you be able to look up the Linton PR's for me on your next visit to the RO?

I am trying to find the birth/bpt of Joseph or Josiah KITTERIDGE (Variations: Ketteridge/Kitterage) C1770-1785.

Many thanks

Dolly
