As expected the petition has been rejected...

Well, it was worth a try i guess!

re the 'adoption' thing

My aunt says she'd never heard this story (she has a good memory), so am assuming it's wrong for the time being

Thanks for the help, i think i'm finally making some progress I ordered a birth certificate for a hannah cox who i thought was the most likely candidate and her father shows as a samuel! Also, i decided to ask my mother if by any chance she knew her grandmothers date of birth (don't know why i didn'...

Sorry, just discovered it's actually 'Cock'

Didn't think of that one!

Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the 'formerly' surname in this image please?



Her married name is Susan(nah) Layton and i think it is Cook or Cork, but not totally convinced

Many thanks

Thanks Jane

Was wondering what guidlines people use to decide if a spouse of a tree member should be included in the family tree please? I currently just put in either actually married spouses or unmarried spouses where there was a child But i have a sister who has been married 3 times (1 divorced, 2 died) and ...

Thanks

Looking at it that way, i have a fair way to go yet...

I have 15 of my 16, having problems with an adopted gt grandmothers mother

And only have the full name (i.e. including womans maiden name) of 16 of my 32. Though the problem at 16 accounts for 4 of my missing 32's

Back to the search [wink]

I have the full version, but haven't really got the hang of it

So am currently using the FH web stuff with a few of my own mods

Will probably have another go with it when i get some spare time though

Have traced back one leg of my tree to about 1538, but most of the tree goes back no where near that far... Yet!

If you open up a family web page where one of the children is deceased, but their spouse is still living it still shows the living spouses picture...

It doesn't show the living spouses picture in their own family sheet

I believe these pictures should not be shown?

I found the diagram window with Vista was coming out very small (compared to when i was running xp), and i couldn't make an enlarged size stick when i re-opened FH But FH v3.1.1 has fixed whatever the issue was, because as soon as i installed it my diagram window looked the same as it used to in XP...

lancashiredave said: Thanks for that Marmine. There was some controversy in the family about it. They wanted it all hushed up because they thought it was illegal. The marriages were back in 1855 and 1862. Ah well you live and learn. My gt grandad did the same, and about the same time. On top of tha...

philjo said: I think that the time is usually entered on birth certificates for multiple births, so that it is established which is the elder child. Thanks, that explains it Solomon was born at midnight the previous day. Though 16 hours seems an awfully long time between twins being born to me

robertbryce said: I think it is just a time. h and m are hours and minutes so it looks like 4.00 pm Is it a Scottish certificate? - if so this is quite usual. Robert Hi Robert, no it's not scottish it's from london. Thanks for interpreting it for me, i can see it's h and m now you point it out I'm ...

Was wondering if anyone can interpret this part of Davids Birth Cert please?

Is it a weight and time, or just a time?



Any thoughts please?

Thanks
Tony

Jane said: I was thinking about this, are you using the 'advanced' viewer on IE? If so the problem I suspect is more to do with the fact the viewer is an activeX control. Do you have the same problem if you use the basic viewer? Yes, the basic viewer works fine As you say it's because it's an activ...

Jane said: I have not played with Vista, but I suspect you should be able to set permissions on the folders to allow IE to add data to a folder of your choice. I would of thought so, but even giving anonymous full permission doesn't work Not really sure what other permissions to try. Adding ancestr...

if you try to save an image to your hard drive from ancestry.co.uk then vista will prevent you from saving it other than to your my pictures (or similar folder). It won't allow you, like i prefer to do, to save it directly to a folder coming off the root of your hard drive. Even if your user account...

Things just got a bit better Tried an old trick of telling windows to search c:windowssystem32 for the drivers and the usb stick, canon camera and my indago sat nav now work fine This trick also has given me the ability to scan from my hp all-in-one, and printing is also working but with a slight is...

Think VERY carefully before upgrading to Windows Vista (or buying a new PC with it on) and thinking you'll be able to use existing hardware etc My laptop has bog standard built-in sound & bluetooth. Got sound working eventually but bluetooth is a no go so far More IMPORTANTLY you'll probably find yo...

Do you think perhaps that that 'Marria' might be in fact 'Mania' ?

Yes it is. As soon as Patrick pointed it out i felt a right pratt!

Thanks for reminding me [wink]

Jane said:
Make sure you have a printer installed on the laptop.

Thanks. I have several printers setup, but i changed the default printer and now it works fine!

I was about to re-install - so many thanks for that

Well I took the plunge last night and upgraded my laptop to Vista as well

FH now won't display diagrams!

Am working on the problem
