Thanks Barry, I'll try that. I've received an email back from them asking for the URLs etc which I've sent them. I've just tried it again and still get the same problem.
Will see what happens and let you know.

Hi
I don't really know why its responding as it does because I have just tried it 3 times and got straight through to the tree
I think you'll just have to wait for a reply from the site contact people

Do you have another e-mail address in your family? perhaps you could become a member again in a different e-mail address and see how that performs

let me know how you get on

Barry, I joined the site Mundia.com and viewed trees yesterday, even managing to view a photograph of my great grandfather Joseph Boyd Knowles b1877, however when I go into tonight, it just takes me back to my home page. Do you know if this happens for you. I have emailed the 'contact us' page, but wondered if you had come across this.
Regards
Wendy

Barry, That site is amazing! thanks. I only managed to go back as far as William and Mary Norbury though to 1653. Unless I'm not reading it correctly
But thank you very much for pointing this site out.

The oldest child on the 41 census was 12 so marriage was probably pre 1829.

Thanks Andy
I'll contact them via email now. What a friendly bunch of people on here :-)
I'm amazed at the speed of responses, took me a while to work out how to post as I've not been on here in years!! and thought it was about time I resumed family history before its too late!

Hi Wendy

Civil registration only started in 1837. Before that its parish records only.
I see from the 1841 that both Joseph and Penelope where born in Worcestershire. I have done research at Worcester records Office and they have all the marriages in the county from 1700 transcribed in alphabetical order in 2 very large books. If you give the office a call they might look to see if there is any trace of a marriage.


Address Worcestershire Library and History Centre, Trinity Street, Worcester, WR1 2PW
Telephone (01905) 765922 / 765924
E-Mail [email protected]

Also I see Joseph was a nailmaker as wee members of my family. A lot of the nailmakers migrated to the Black Country in the 19th century.
