This is the best map yet for clarity of London Streets in Victorian Times. I was amazed to find my Ancestors street in Shoreditch. It is not indexed so you need to find approx area on grid before you start. http://users.bathspa.ac.uk/greenwood/lwhatsnew.html ---------- If you go to History and click on 'explore the map ' it shows you how to use the 1827 map in conjunction with todays 'Multimap' for example. http://www.pals.org.uk/sitemap.htm links to war sites http://www.reminiscene.*co.uk/index.htm old photos www.mna.org.uk Merchant Navy 1899 on partic War www.sunderland.gov.uk and click on Life Events. ALso the Durham Records Office online database for BMD. Another good site is durhamrecordsonline They have the full 1841 census transcribed for Durham now. I just found lout ast night that Leeds City Council have a list of absent voters for world war I. If you log in at www.leeds.gov.uk and in their search facility put in absent voters a list will come up with that title - it holds a database of 50,000 names. I then wondered just how many other councils do this? It may be the one mention some of you need to set you on your way. What was so interesting was not only did it have their names but also holds their number, rank and unit. Baptism records on the web try google . Just put in the name of the place and parish records and it will lead you up a path. If its from Kent then there are a lot on the cityark site. Have gone back to 1776 with the parish records on there. gallery of photos which are held by various London libraries, museums and archives.

If not, check out the archives that covers that area - another google should do it www.victorianlondon.org/publications/dictionary.htm http://www.wayfaring.*com/ Basically you can use it to create custom maps to share with others. I thought it would be a great idea to create a map showing the different locations of my rellies http://londonpublichouse.*com/LondonPubs/ http://internet-genealogy.*com/index.shtml magazine a brilliant site, written by a registrar, with info about what is on bmd certs and more excitingly, what it means! http://home.*clara.net/dixons/ then click on GRO Certificates: With due acknowledgement of various contributors :-)) Hope it helps.

Especially useful for marriages, and you don't have to pay to search their databases. You will almost always find that each marriage has a separate reference number on these sites, and most give you the spouse's name on the entry. Not many are complete, but they are always worth a try. I believe most have concentrated on marriages first because they are the entries that computerisation is most helpful for. Good ones that I know of are: Lancashire BMD, Yorkshire BMD, Isle of Wight BMD, Kent BMD (though you won't get the spouse's name unless you already know it), Staffordshire BMD, Cheshire BMD (the template for most of the others, I believe), Newcastle BMD, North East BMD, Durham BMD. To find these and others, just look on UK BMD and choose the county you want www.ukbmd.org.uk and look down through the results till you find the county BMD site (if they have one); then you can click on the link Also Combs and c.

Joseanne, I note that some one has just nudged another thread up with more sites on. Roy

Thanks Porkie, have done that. Shame the site I was looking for isn't on the list. It was one I found and I'm sure I put it on there. And I can't find it googling either.

Joseanne, i cannot remember? it may be better if you change the Title of this thread to suit the info that i have put on, i used copy and paste into word document thats the only reason i still have the info. Roy

Yes that's it, what's the title to save you copying it on here then I can look it up. Many Thanks Josie

There was a thread on here listing loads of websites. I've tried searching 'best web sites' and 'web sites' but it's not coming up. Anyone remember what it was called? It was one of those where we all added any site we found and someone put them on a list. Thanks. Josie. *UPDATE* It might be best if you didn't add any more to this thread but keeps Deb's 'Best Websites' going. BUT I'm leaving this on as it's got a lot of helpful bits. Many thanks Roy & Carol.
