Find Ancestors

This is actually Victoria here!!

I have been able to get all the names into GR via gedcom (despite having a power cut here!)

If you want to access the tree to gain access please try searching for one of the names that you are researching

The tree owner should come up as Bethnal Green

Any probs then let me know.

It seems that other members will not be able to enter info into the tree.

I will do this if you send a PM with the following info (no embelishments please)

Name including maiden name
date of birth
place of birth
last known address (maybe from CWGC)
note eg Died at xxx hospital

spouse name
date of birth
place of birth

father name
date of birth
place of birth

mother name
date of birth
place of birth

siblings
name
date of birth
place of birth

have changed the community name

I have sent you my two easy ones

Jessie Asser born Sharman + husband
Elizabeth Bendon

Will get to the others tomorrow.

Mucho thanks for this!

edit -- wow, that was fast! Only thing: Jessie was a girl. ;)

... and I've sent you the Bakers, Minnie and George.

Evie do you think you could indicate next to names "message sent" or "no match" so that we don't search what has already been done?

Got to go off line now. Hope that has helped,

If you can just send me the info by PM I will out the info in the tree and Gr will look for matches, I will put a note on the person in the tree if there are matches or not. It's already started giving me hot matches but need to know more info on the people to be able to confirm there families.

I can give you access to the tree is you request in the normal way.

I had a glitch with the tree in that hidden characters were in the surnames making search impossible but I've sorted that now.

Had a look for William Stretch Jnr and snr, Pm'd thread holder.
regards Deborah

I'm signing off for the night

I believe that I have added in the info into the tree that I have received so far will check for matches tomorrow

Anna has the logon details of the tree as well (sent via PM)

Please only send data on the lost people (not from the found list) and just for ease please send in the format outlined in previos note - just makes it easier to input, thanks

cheers Victoria

no luck with a birth /marriage index. and no known link to name on search trees

Eliza Matilda Korobenick born 1910 daughter of Mr. Charles Victor Mead

note the spelling
there are 2 people on Genes with this surname
have pmd both

Janice -- indeed we do need to do that -- identify the ones that have been found in GR trees.

I'll go through the thread and go back to my list on page 1 later tonight or on Saturday and add

"found - GR tree owner PMed by ___"

beside each name it's been done for. (Everybody go ahead and PM the tree owners they identify, and I'll just assume for the list purposes that you've done it.)

>>>> Actually -- would you add a post IN CAPITAL LETTERS saying the NAME OF THE VICTIM and that you have PMed the tree owner?

If anybody who has done that would edit their post to make it capital letters I would be grateful.

And yes, I'd say PM possibles. Cast our net wide, eh?

Victoria -- you could just include Anna's email address when you grant tree access. (Anna will give it to anybody, it's just that it's not supposed to be on the boards.)

edit - Victoria - if you have two minutes, you could just go through the thread here and click all the posters' names and grant tree access.

My first PM, only sent a few miniutes ago, has been read by the GR tree owner!

(You can tell when a message is opened by looking in your Sent Messages box.)

We're on our way!

edit -- opened, and answered. The tree owner (related through a parent) will be getting in touch, and also has family still in the area.
