You will probably get a reply tomorrow
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

I vaguely remember a while back having to change my SP password, though I can't recall why. Someone who uses SP more than I do may be able to confirm that?

Do you have some credits in your old account? If not, you could try opening a new account.

On the login page there is a simple facility for setting a new password. Have you tried that?

Yes. I think they moved to having passwords a minimum of 8 characters in length so if yours was shorter it won't work any longer. I'm sure they'll be able to sort it out after Monday.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Credits expire after a certain time. Perhaps it would be better to start all over again. ScotlandsPeople "remembers me" so I have no difficulty getting on to the site".
