Yeah Ancestry is fine for me too...

Well, we were booking a band the other day and then i realised there's a good chance i might be related to one of them in some way.

The guys name is James Ure, born 10 October 1953, Cambuslang, Lanarkshire, Scotland.

All of my lot (well a very large proportion of the Scottish lot) were all from Cambuslang, and it's not a massive place!

There might be a very good connection somewhere, but i can't start until i get his parents names!!

I *could* of course order his birth cert, but i wanna save a tenner (and 6 weeks wait) lol

And is was 1953 for his birth?

Ancestry has gone too specific. I type the details in the main search box and then I get a long list of all the catalogue...

...so I click censuses and then I get another list of all the censuses....I then have to click on 1881 or what ever and I get a list of possibles...without any details until I click on the name

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

oooh has your Ancestry gone all orangey/creamy?

It's gone to the new version?

If it has it's easy to solve!

Yeah he was born 10 Oct 1953.

Awwhhh Trace,

You didn't say this was a 'Scottish one' - I can't help on Scottish ones I am afraid.

I have found a bit on James (Midge) on google, I will see if I can find anything more helpful.

I tried clicking on Go to old search but that takes me back about 10 years I think to the first format ever!

I just want to type in a name and get a list of possible matches...you know like; BMD's, cenuses and all the other stuff

If I want to be specific I do that my bl##dy self!

I think the colour is the same though

Ahhh,

Ginny, clear your cache out first!

If you've got errant files in your cache it'll foobar it all up. Clear your history and cookies cache's and then try again!

WayneTracey Report 2 Oct 2010 10:45

Yeah Dea,

Thats all i get, the basics...there has to be a fuller history somewhere...or even one someone else has done!

I can't see a tree with him in either :(

Cough.

Scottish is easier when you know who to ask nicely if they could/would help.

Aint he got his parents names then ,or are you not asking.....

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 2 Oct 2010 11:19

Hey FBG,

I want to try and establish a link, it's a bit difficult asking him directly!

I have now ordered his birth cert....

Well when you get the certificate can you let us know who his parents are as they are never mentioned in the bumf on the tinternet!
