Tay ...............


one tip .........

Remember to use the wild card * when searching, especially on Axelborough / -brough .... there are so many variations to add to mistranscriptons.

The * replaces 1 or more letter but there has to be at least 3 letters in addition to the * .............. I used A*e*l*b*gh

I also found Israel spelled wrongly, and then there was that one record as Isaac ......... so I used Is*a*

I can't get over how much information you've all managed to find, It's truly amazing. I've got loads now to go on. As I said previously I'm a little out of touch with searching and processing the info as I've not used the sites for about 6 years and so much has changed.

I find it all so exciting and so looking forwarded to finding my way round again.

Thanks once again. :-D

Mary Ann Axelborough wa his grandmother , she died when she was 33 and my husbands dad was only 8 so never really knew anything about his mums side of the family.

Sometimes schools had an infants section up to aged 7 then you transferred to the junior school in the same area

They would be separate buildings and sometimes a little way apart

It seems as if the school had two names. The entry is exactly the same as the one above for St Johns School. I have no explanation fro the double entry!!!
