Elaine

for the said
bankrupt to pass his Lust Examination,

LOL


formerly Christine

I thought it may be you!!! How are you?

I have a 'lust' examination on a regular basis!! lol I see nothing strange in this!!

Did I tell you that I found the Taylor wills at the archives? [it was a long time ago now, so cannot remember how far we got] I have still to write a piece for that nice man Neil at the Honorable Society of Specticle Makers [?] - my computer has crashed since then and had to be restored, so I may have mislaid his address - but one day I will write a piece for him!!

I think you may be correct - that 50 does not hurt as much as 30 or 40!!!

How are you and yours? grand-daughter OK?

Elaine

And - no - before you ask - I still havent posted on the Geddington website, as you advised me to do ages ago.

I will do that now - who knows what it will bring up?

Done it!

Wot is a Lust Examination? If he is a bankrupt, is it not a misprint for a Bust Examination? Though that has its own implications....

?????

That is as I found it.

Priceless.

My grandaughter is gorgeous.

I am shattered.

Some health issues at the moment.

Glad you found the wills. Post it if you can on Alfred's thread.

The census you discounted earlier is probably relating to one of Isaiah's brothers children. Keep it in mind. There were not that many in Geddington so likely to be connected at some point.

I have two more tips for you Elaine.

On the boards page at the top it says boards summary.
Click on it and you can search all the boards.

Try Geddington. Alfred Burton Wood, Stephen Richardson Wood, etc

There is an advanced search option too.

At present the system is playing up so hit search and wait a minute and then hit refresh.

Tip two

Go to search trees and use the terms Wood and Geddington and you will find others research wood families in Geddington.

Thank you - I will try this later, as at work at the moment [on a break I might add!!]

Thanks for all your help and advice! [again] I dont know how I would manage without the support from the members of this community. All help received is truly appreciated.

Many thanks.

Elaine

Ladykira,

Cant manage to get any result with 'boards summary' or 'search trees'. Am I searching correctly?

The results that I am getting contain the words you suggested - but nothing for the whole names/words [except my posts, of course!]

leave first name blank

surname wood

place of birthh Geddington

Also try kettering

I just got quite a few matches.

Search the boards with an advanced search

i e

Wood AND Geddington

cut and paste this for your first try. There is a fault in the search engine so wait for a minute then hit refresh

Just realised you got your posts. That is what you were you were trying to do at first. You asked me how I did it.

Try other variations too.
