I was getting desperate on ancestry and put in Clil with a wild card to see if I could find more members of the Clilverd line Im researching (I am a guest member)and it came back with 8 hits on the Roll of the tudor blood royal(I also found hits on a few of the family with their names spelled wrong but I had already found them from other sources) Now I dont think the hits on the Tudor roll are related to me, but you never know.Could some kind soul with full ancestry access please look up these hits for me I entered Clil* to get them

Hi Alison, I've looked on the 2001 electoral roll and there are only 112 in the UK with the name Clilverd. If you would like me to send them to you - just shout. Regards, Nesta

You probably have this information but doing a search on google.ca and entering Clilverd and genealogy it gae me 3 names of burials in Abney Cemetary or is it Abney Park - well the computer is so slow right now I am not going back to check the correct name but the names listed are Caroline E Clilverd Elizabeth Ann clilverd Harriet Alice clilverd perhaps this will be of some help Penny

Thanks for trying folks I already have the Abney park burials and Nesta you already sent me the Clilverds on the 2001 electoral roll,Im waiting on replies from the ones Ive contacted. On ancestry I did a search as I described above on the birth marriage and death records there is an entry for the tudor roll of the blood royal, Ive already had the ancestry free trial and it wont let me sign up again.

Hi Alison. I've been into Ancestry and had a look using the method you suggested and have tried to investigate the Tudor Roll of the Blood Royal entries. I have viewd all four pages but can find no entry that seesm to even remotely resemble Clil*. Mayne I am missing something obvious - but I canot see anything there! Many names,a lot of them double barrelled and lovely Chistian names like Aloysius, but couldn't find any Clil* at all. sorry.

Thanks for trying Its probably ancestry trying to lure people into paying to subscibe, they keep sending me emails to subscribe to the US census even though there are only 2 hits on there for the name. The tudor thing was just intrigueing probably no connection anyway

I looked for the clil* matches in some different documents: they were highlighted, but turned out to be just "cli" or "cil" or in one case "[iii". Raises questions about how they actually do the indexing on documents they haven't transcribed But hey, it finds you hundreds of matches!
