If it's the family i think it is or very close realtions then the photo would of been taken around Earlstown in Lancashire, which is certainly where the Photgraphic Studio who took it/processed it came from as that is shown on the Surround. The main problem that i have is that the female 2nd from ri...

Have just come across a family photo which i am having trouble dating so i can identify if possible who they might be. If any one could give me a rough date and/or ages they think the people might be.

As far as i can see, the Data contained within the GedCom file is not subject to Copyright, but the way that the data is presented is, so any report diagram website etc is copyrightable (i.e. they cannot make an exact copy of your report but they can take the data from the report and use that themse...

try this link http://www.afreeocx.com/ocx/info/hhctrl_ocx.htmlshould then allow you to download and install missing file.

DateFormat works fine.
If windows set to UK settings and put in date as 2/3/1888 gives 2 MAR 1888 which is correct.
If change windows settings to US and put in exact same date of 2/3/1888 gives 3 FEB 1888 which is correct for US settings. So no problems with FH in recognising correct date formats.

See my post of almost 12 monts ago http://www.fhug.org.uk/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=forum&board=General&op=display&num=1809 But since no one commented on it or said they may like to try it have done nothing with it, but it dooes work and reduses file size certainly on my Gedcom by 3/4 qrts i.e a 1MB ...

If you look on genuki for the parish of Trelleck http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/MON/Trelleck/index.html you will see that there is a link to an online transcription for a lot of parishes in Monmouthshire including Trelleck. And according to Genuki PR for Bedminster are held at Somerset Rcord Office.

Also have a problem installing. Have a windows98 SE machine. On running setup says needs to update system files fine but when machine restarts get error message saying that oleaut32.dll cannot run. which seems to stop everything else running properly. Luckily i am a computer engineer and knew how to...

If i run the How to for 'V3 using flags and Icons' get the same problem when run from the dowloadable package all other seem to work ok. but if run direct from the Website works OK.

Hi Jocelyn, Looking on FH Website under System Requirements, states that FH(v3) will not run under NT4 or earlier versions of NT. I normally take this to mean that it may well run but certain bits may not work as expected and the Software Company will not fix any problems which only appear with an u...

Following on from comments made by other people i have just written a very basic program which will strip a Gedcom file down to just Birth-Bap/Chr-Death-Burial-Marr Info. i.e just date and place of the event. It will also convert Quarter Dates to the End of quarter so Q1 1888 is changed to JAN 1888....

Hi James,
If you click on links from either the menu at the top of the page or from the left hand side of this web site you will then see an option which says members web sites. You can then view various websites as created by FH3

All though i don't use Gedcom Census, can i just add a reason as to why Ages should not be recorded against occupations. If Person is say a Farmer in 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881 Census. You would surely only ever have one Occupation Attribute but you cannot have an age as what age would you put there. I....

Unless Manual substantially changed from Beta Version pages 77,78 in Chapter 7 - More features of diagrams.
Explains what it is used for.

As i read the Standard RESN tag is only for an individual and is only really used for LDS anyway. Therfore unless i have read this wrong or you have another definition then i believe that Simon has implemented it corectly. See Definition below A RESTRICTION (RESN) tag and a primitive were added to t...

I have ancestors who went to Canada, and i can find them on Passengers lists etc using various websites. What i want to know is how do i find what date they came back to England as none of the sites seem to do lists for people arriving in England. eg. my GGGrandFather went out to Canada in 1870 have...

Have not tried Demo version, but do not get the messages you say you get for thae dates you put in, with the full working version. Check that the date for the birth you have as 1901 not 1918 as that will give the error messages you say. Yes does allow future dates but do not think that is a problem ...

You could always use the extra attributes of the address Attribute. To add these, one way is from Individuals Record Window expand so you can see eg. Birth Details, then expand so you can see address details for the Birth. Then if you right click you get options to add First Indexing Line Second Ind...

When viewing Report Press Options Button On Contents Tab there should be a section which says Main Section Items (in order) Scroll down to where it shows RecordID Will say it is set to hide Then Click on Edit and select show if not empty Then click OK and then Apply RecordID should now show. Tim.

you could try looking at http://freecen.rootsweb.com as this does have some of the 1851 for Scotland on. Although it may be a bit hit and miss as not everything is transcribed yet. But it is free and you can see how much of each county is already done. They seem to also have more for 1841 in Scotlan...

Not sure why imported diferently but I could tell it was different because i also have my Census details set up as a Custom Event one for each year and it looks different. See screen shot http://www.fhug.org.uk/images/uploads/iviewcapture_date_02_02_2006_time_12_29_07.gif Compare this to your screen...

Julia,
It looks to me as though, you have it defined as a Custom Attribute, whereas you are asking Query to show an Event (Indi.Event) rather than an Attribute (Indi.Attr).

Check that you don't have them defined as both a Custom Attribute and Custom Event.

Does anyone know if there are records concerning Prison officers i.e date of joining, date of leaving etc.
I have the Pension record for my GGrandfather who was in the Met Police but i cannot find any similar records for his Father who was a Prison Office at Dartmoor Prison, Princetown.
