We learn something new every day! :-D :-D

I found another variety of the 'Cornish Visitations', for a different area, but can't for the life of me remember how I found it :-(

Researching:
Henry Floyd (g x 4 grandad) Allegedly the heaviest man in England in 1842

Well done maggie. I had not even noticed the search box!

I found it by accident, but tend to use it for research..

One set that I came across 'The Visitations of the County of Cornwall' is very useful in filling out my Cornish side.

I love the fact that I can put the name in to find information, and not have to wade through it.

Has anybody else found it?

I was looking to find one of the extremely dull books I look at for sale at the lowest possible price when I lighted upon it and it has the whole scripts of all sorts of different books which are free to read on-line.

Apart from my dull stuff there are things like 'Alice in Wonderland' and 'Peter Rabbit', not to mention 'The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich'.
