Find Ancestors

OK Then you are on my wave length. Now if you ever would like a challenge suss out a program called Legacy. This is a free (or pay for depending on which version) family tree which lives on your computer. You can play around in it and learn all about entering data to make up your family tree.

And I am not saying it is easy however if you can communicate on these boards and read instructions you should be able to enter data. There is plenty of help available within the program.

Aunty..
I only ever use pencil and paper.

I use a customised dog pedigree that I drew up myself as I couldnt find anything I liked to work with.

I have nothing on computer as I dont know how to !

There,now everyone knows how puter lit I am not...

Whoo hoo!! Method in madness sometimes. What a clever bunch of people are you lot.

FBG you are going to have to sift through all this info. Draw yourself a tree on paper and put in the names and dates of birth and link the rellies. Where you are unsure of who fits where you may have to resort to certificates.

This will keep you busy for a while and may lead to more questions.

hi me too off to bed but will pick this up again in morning nite nite :)

Thank you PP.

Ihave to go now,my eyes are refusing to focus properly.

PP,,which site were you using when you found them in 1871 please?

Thank you all for your help everyone,I am really pleased with it all and to have at last got the 1871 census is wonderful as I have searched for days...

So your 1851/ 61 census look perfect PP.

Still cant agree with the 1901 with William senior being a Stone masons Lab though,sorry...

Hi sorry my computer crashed oh i put it up as
RG 10 / 2567 will try to remember how to type it in future lol
I think the 1861 census I gave you could tie in with the family too if you go by martha e 2 months

No matter...
I have them on Ancestry now.

Yuk,what a mess,I am off to send in a complaint to Ancestry.

Thank you PP.

I have looked at all those before but none seem right to me as the professions are all wrong.

If William was a coachman in 1881 and again on sons MC in 1904 I would have thought that he would be a groom at least on earlier census which is how they step up to become coachmen?
And been a coachman or similar in 1891/1901,not a masons labourer,although of course they did change jobs.

I will have to look at them again I think.

AnnOGG,our Queen of google,I thought you at least would have found me a Compton Morton in the west country.

On the 1881 image it is definatley Compton Morton and also Devon if you look up the page to others?
