	Dear All Hello I found this whilst researching: This website contains a list of policemen who were received a humane society award, with a brief description of the incident and those involved. The dates involved range from the 1840's onwards until 1890's. http://historybytheyard.co.uk/royal_humane_society_awards_1891-1907.htm -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Best wishes Elizabeth, EOS

	When you search the GRO to place an order you now get the mother's maiden name between 1837 and 1915. Very useful if you have a census entry but can't locate the marriage or if there is more than one possible spouse for the groom.

	Happy to nudge this thread which is for the benefit of all members.
	Researching: Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.
