Can I be the wet lettuce please? I have several families located from census discs. Not mistranscribed, not on poor images. They aren't on the index and they don't appear on the indexes on 'a certain site' How can that happen? I need to find them again cos I lost all the images when my hard drive crashed!

Even found Ann Brown in Bishopwearmouth, which I believe is somewhere north of Watford. At least another couple of hours before the eyes start rolling! But why am I racing to look everyone up tonight? Am I afraid sub consciously that it won't be there in the morning? Irrational. Sorry, no time for more babbling, must get back to 1851

Brilliant! No major successes yet, but my 2xggrandfather who (as clear as day) was born in Churchill, Oxfordshire in 1861, was, according to 1851 (and just as clear as day!!!) born in Hampton, Middx ...............! Don't quite know what to make of that ...............???!!!! lol! Bev x
