Hi all,
Sorry I haven't been in touch. Lost the internet at about 6.00 pm last night and only got it back ten minutes ago.

Given you tree permission Mandy and Ann. Will catch up on postings later.

I seem to be taking a lot of your time up girls with my family. If you find mistakes, IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN PUT IT IN ORDER.. I am prepared to give you pass words is you need them. Thanks again for all your time and effort.

William, Join the CLAN. I get very confused with all the different people in my tree. !!

Afternoon all,

What a lovely day more sunshine and quite a wind ,the garden swing keeps getting lumped about !!

Frank , thanks for sharing your tree ,i have been having a look and got side tracked looking at Theodosia Baker ,did you know there is a tree on Ancestr* that has photo's of her parents William Baker and Clara Broad !!

Oh meant to say what a lovely job Ros made of the Cross , a lot of hard work has gone into making that , lovely colors with a touch of sparkle too.

When i went into Boo*s this morning for hubby's tablets i bought three christmas presents !! they had the three for the price of two offer on.

Then at Tesc*'s i got another present !! i've never started shopping so early !!

Ann, what a good idea putting the rubber pads on the legs, that could be done on all garden furniture to stop them rotting out at the bottom , will pass that tip onto hubby ,he'll be pleased another job for him to do :-D

He's Birthday boy tomorrow !! Shhhhh don't tell he's 65 !!!

Hi girls thanks for all the information. How do I get rid of CHARLES and substiture him with CHRISTOPHER. ??? As BETSIE'S Husband.

Hi Mandy I missed your POST.No I didn't know my mums parents has a photo on Ancestary. Who owns the tree ??? Do you know how I can get a copy???

Your OH is quite a young man then !!!! When the nurse told me yesterday that my blood pressure was that of a 21 year old. I said I wish I could get my hands on a 21 year old. She said it would KILL YOU. What a way to go. :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0

Still trying to fatham out my tree, and all these Children, parents, in laws etc etc.

Frank , have sent you the photo's by e mail , let me know if you get them ok.

I told Frank about the photos ages and ages ago.

think I may still have one on the pc somewhere.

Don't think we can in any way correst your tree for you frank as the password will not go with our email addresses.

Fraid it is down to you with our guidance.

Going to have a little look at your tree now.

Frank I think the tree on Ancestry is wrong.

Go to your Horace Edward Bedford 1859 I sent his marriage cert where it says his father is Christopher Bedford a publican.

This is his parents before Horace was born.

This is all a bit confusing.

I have just found all the children of Betsey and Christopher on IGI.

I have also found the probate for Christopher Bedford in 1882 with his wife as Mary Ann Bedford??????

Bedford Christopher 30th Sept. The will of Christopher Bedford late of 8, Courteney-Terrace Wallthamstow in the county of Essex Gentlem,an who died 8 August 1882 at 8, Courteney-Terrace was proved at the prinipal registry by Mary Ann Bedford of 8 Courteney Terrace Widow the relict and John Allison of Orford-road Walthamstow Surgeon the Executors.

Still chasing up my Thorn/Brooks/Lewin leads. Have come across two unusual christian names, wonder if anyone has heard anything like them before. Henry & Mary Thorn had two daughters who they named Merab 9b 1848 Thundersley) & Ketarah (b 1850) The last one appears on various census as Ketura and Keturak.

Afternoon All
Well it is reasonably peaceful here now.I am just left with one dehumidifier and one fan in the kitchen.All the others have been taken away :-D :-D :-D.The man will be back on the 16th hopefully for the very last time.
I can't tell you how nice it to sit here in the lounge with no whirring fans blowing.I can actually hear myself think for the first time in about 7 weeks :-D.Chester is already more relaxed.I was really beginning to get quite worried about his anxiety.

Janice has gone now.Back to all the trials and tribulations with the family.The biggest strain on her is the situation with her son and baby William.Her son and William's mum Jo have still not discussed together the plans as what will happen when she becomes too ill or worse to care for William any longer.I think they are both in denial.
It was so nice to have Janice here again ,especially finding out all the Lottie thing.It took her mind off all her worries for a while and she was able to relax and chill .Her leg too was able to relax and so wasn't too painful .She said she slept like a log too,

I am sorry that I have not been able to keep up with all the posts but see you girls have been busy again helping the boys out :-D :-D

Mandy .Will you be celebrating tomorrow,or should I say will OH be celebrating his milestone birthday tomorrow ;-) ;-).Maybe celebrate a bit more income lol

It feels fairly nippy outside now but has been a lovely sunny day today.

Now what to have for dinner??

Jane so good that Janice enjoyed her stay and slept well too. That in it's self would buck her up. Nice to reminis too lookingover all those old photos.

Good that you don't have quite so much noise going on around you now and hope the days pass quickly till the 16th.

William I can't work on two trees at the same time so am trying to sort Frankie Boy first as he only has 300 and something people on his tree and I think you have over 4,000 at the mo.

Thanks for sharing your tree Frank. Well, you had an email from me last year with those photos attached at the time I sent for that marriage cert for you!! lol. They must have vanished into the 'BLUE ETHER'. Mandy wouldn't have known, so it's a good job she has mentioned and sent them again or you would have missed out!!

I got the rubber feet cut for the arbour. They are about a quarter of an inch thick so are ideal. What a nice man, I asked him 'how much?' and he said 'just put a donation in the Lifeboat box!'. :-D . Don't tell your OH I have found him more work will you Mandy! :-0 :-0 It will be free prescriptions and flu jabs for him now then!!

William, I haven't seen those names before either. They are biblical aren't they?

Back to a bit of searching now and a look at our Frank's tree. :-D
