You are welcome Pegasus

Hope someone would do the same for me .....when I make a howler as I some times do
cant get head in gear and hands will not write things as I know they should be and end up  writing something down phonetically instead

I Know just what You mean, sometimes My fingers don't seem to be on the same wavelength as my Brain? ::) ;)

Hi all,

Well it looks like I am a mongrel as my family cover all four England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

The problem with that is I am reluctant to ask for help on all four as I feel a bit cheeky.

Asked for help yesterday with Cork Ireland and had some fantastic help...

I think everyone who takes the time to help us beginners should be given a big pat on the back and Thank you..

Just added some More to My Paternal Line! (Thanks to a Gem of a RootsChatter: 'Down-Under' [Pam]).

I can now add South Wales & Devon to My List! ;D ;D ;D

I am still new to this game and finding my feet. My prime objective is to chase back my paternal line, which I always believed was Cumberland based. My father never really liked the Welsh (I never did know why) and I've just discovered that two of his great grandmothers were Welsh!!! I just wish he was still around so that I could "discuss" it with him.

Anyway, having started on the father's side in Cumberland, I now find myself going further afield, that is, Cheshire and North Wales. Hopefully somewhere more exotic will appear soon.

As yet I have not found any Wets Country ancestors but one of the names which is my username is a West Country surname and my great grandmother, her dad and her grandad were all Londoners but her great grandad who died before civil reg, well who knows where he originated? He was George Coombs born about 1790 and died in 1831 in Pancras, London aged 41.
