Find Ancestors

I have access to Ancestry (UK and USA). I also have British Origins. I can also search BMDs from 1866 to 1920. I don't have anything for Scotland. If you want a lookup, please post your request on this board - DO NOT SEND PRIVATE MESSAGES PLEASE. Please give full details - ie Name, DOB, Place (county at least). All replies will be posted here. If you want a copy of a census image, mail me your email address.

Hi Tracy, Could you please look on British Origins for details of any people in Wiltshire called Kill. I've done the free search and there are a few. If you can give more detail in a personal message, let me know and I'll send my email address. (May be offline for a while) Kath. x (in Billingham)

Kathleen, do you mean in 1871?

Hi Tracy, No - I have the census as I have Ancestry subscription. Can't remember now but I think there was a couple of apprenticeship records and maybe marriages. I know I just searched on Kill and Wiltshire. Thanks, Kath. x

Dawn, Richard Andrews, 55, Ag Lab, Born in County Ann, 30, Born in County Charles, 20, '' daughter, 15, '' son, 5, '' another child (not an Andrews), 3, '' The page is torn where the other names are. Sorry I can't help more with it. Nothing for George, but Kent isn't on there. I supposed it's worth subscribing if you have relatives in the counties (southern) it covers. Pretty useless for me since all mine are from Yorkshire lol
