Announcing a new mailing list -
UK-NEWSPAPER-EXTRACTS-L
The purpose of this list is to make available to genealogists worldwide any
UK newspaper extracts from old newspapers for any region of the UK that
would be of interest or of value to genealogy research.
Old newspapers contain much of interest to the genealogist - Births, Marriages and deaths,
inquests, court cases and assizes, trade advertisements, bankrupts, snippets of local interest
and give us an accurate picture of the lives of our ancestors, adding flesh to their bones in a
way that no other genealogy resource can.

BBC Archives to be placed Online

The BBC has announced it will place all of its radio and broadcast archives on the
Internet. That includes about 80 years' worth of radio and television information.
Best of all, the archives will be available free of charge.

This will be a monumental effort. Eighty years of archival material will fill gigabytes
of disk space. Of course, as a public institution, the BBC does not have the profit
issues of other media companies. Nonetheless, a lot of money needs to be spent
in order to make this information available online.

Greg Dyke, director general of the BBC, clearly believes content should be open
to anyone who wants it. "In particular, it will be about how public money can be
combined with new digital technologies to transform everyone’s lives."

Digital Future For Liverpool Library

Liverpool’s central library will be transformed into one of the world biggest virtual

archives through two projects, the first involving a E15 (£10m) plan to digitise

millions of archive files, with a second E45 (£30m) project redeveloping the site to

house a 21st century heritage centre.

The new centre, expected to be completed by August 2007, will make Liverpool one

of the foremost centres of genealogy in the world, where members of the public will

be able to trace their family history online.

English Origins News
 1. Prerogative Court of Canterbury Wills Index 1750-1800
Dear Listers,
Origins.net (www.origins.net), in association with the Society of
Genealogists are pleased to announce that the PCC Wills Index is now
available for searching on English Origins (www.englishorigins.com)
About the Index data
 Wills have been proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury (PCC) since
1383 and are now preserved in the Public Record Office, London. The index created by the
Society of Genealogists and now available on English
Origins covers wills proved in the period 1750 to 1800 (inclusive).
Each index record has the Forename and Surname of the testator, the Place
(usually the English county) where they resided, and the Month and Year
when probate was granted.
Where the place of residence was not England, the country may be given
(most commonly Scotland or Ireland), or 'Foreign Parts' - which may be any
place outside the British Isles.
This index contains 208,000 entries created from the typewritten index,
includes a hard copy service allowing users to order extracts online.
For more information about the data contained in this index, please go to:

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm#Page

Have you been frustrated searching the IGI for your relatives when you have
only the surname but got tired of figuring out batch numbers and typing them
into the LDS search screen (since you can't do a last name search unless you
know a batch number)?
Hugh has and he I decided to do something about it. Hugh made an
exhaustive search of the likely ranges of batch numbers for the British
Isles and created a database of those numbers and the source records that
they apply to. He has searched all the possible numbers in the ranges shown
on his website. For each batch he extracted the church or chapel (if
specified), town, county and country names of the first record that appears
when it is called up in his browser. He organised them by country and
county and created a website. A very powerful feature that he has included
is a hotlink from each batch number to the actual search engine provided at
http://www.familysearch.org, including the ability to enter the surname you
are looking for. This makes it very easy to search all the batches for a
particular geographic location using just the last name you are searching
for - something that is not possible directly from the LDS site without
doing a lot of typing. It also connects towns that are listed in more than
one county in the IGI which can sometimes be a problem causing you to lose a
relative because you are looking across a county border!!

Registers. The contracts indicate not only the servant's name and length of
indenture, but also the name of the servant's parents and owner, their home
province and city, occupation, destination, and ship of embarkation. These
records provide a detailed composition of indentured servants in the 17th
century Atlantic World. Bristol Registers The Bristol Registers records all
indentured servants who left from the port of Bristol, England. Servants
listed their place of origin as towns and provinces all over England, as
well as many foreign countries such as Ireland and France. They were headed
to many different places in the New World, including Virginia, Barbados,
and the Caribbean islands. Lengths of indenture varied from 3 to 7 years,
with the average length for females being 4.3 years, and for males, 4.44 years.
The database contains records for approximately 10,000 indentured servants sent
from Bristol to the New World.

Pay-for-view access to the civil registration indexes of England and Wales.
Geoff Stone, the Society of Genealogists has provided the following information:
"Title Research [the owner of the site] is a fairly long established firm of repute; this is not
a scam but a genuine project.  The particular company has been using the digitised images
of BMD index data for several years which it converted at its own expense.  They have now
realised that the data in this form (after some convincing from others)
is potentially of commercial interest.  Of course we all realise that as the Free-BMD grows
in size then that site will probably win out, but in the short term who can blame Title
Research for taking the opportunity of sharing a valuable asset in the mean time.

"The Family Record Centre ['FRC'] Consultative Group has a dozen or so members

Family History Societies'], IHGS ['Institute of Heraldic and Genealogical Studies'],
AGRA ['Association of Genealogists and Record Agents'] and independent researchers
forming the user group.  Of course in fact the commercial companies are the largest
single users of the centre and facilities, hence the fact that it was worth while one of
them digitising the indexes.
"I expect that the counter or phone staff at Stockport [i.e., at the GRO] do not know about
the new site since it has not yet been launched.
However, the PRO management are well aware of the site. I can't comment at the moment
regarding records less than 100 years old, but I will update this list when I am in a position
to do so.
"Somebody else has pointed out that you are not obliged to use the site, but there will be
many who are not able to go to the FRC and don't have easy access to the microfilm and
will welcome the facilities offered.
This rather depends on the options offered by the system which we will not know for another
few weeks.

"I should also add - for the avoidance of doubt - that the SoG have no direct connection
with the site, though we are supportive in principle of anybody who makes genealogical
data available over the Internet."

The A2A database contains catalogues from archives repositories in England
which cover archives dating from the tenth to the twentieth century -
catalogues which can therefore be used to identify original sources for local history research. 
These potential sources include:
* An Anglo-Saxon charter of Aethelred II, dated to 995 and held by Somerset Archive
and Record Service, by which the king restored Ilminster and gave
Cantmeel (West Camel) to Muchelney Abbey (ref DD\SAS\C/795/PR/502;
photographic copy for consultation at T/PH/sby 1)
* Parish records from the later mediaeval period onwards, notably for the

http://www.curiousfox.com/ 
This is an unusual website in many respects for family historians. Certainly a different
concept. Basically entries are arranged geographically, so you can see
people searching for families in an area you are interested in. This does fall down a little
when people select a whole county and you select a particular village or town. It is also
very much in its infancy, with few entries on the site.  It also works on a double tear
system for 'free' and 'paying' members which I dislike a little. Although it must be said
the fee is very low at the moment. The site requires a little thought to work it out in the
first place, and is not the easiest to navigate and work your way around, but a little patience
will pay off as once you have worked out the system it will be interesting. You will need to
pay really as you will get little for nothing!  As far as I am concerned the
jury is out as to whether family historians will like the geographic breakdown or prefer
the older and more familiar name breakdown.

Interesting stuff about prices and incomes in the 1860s at http://www.geocities.com/RodeoDrive/7503/greatbritainmoney.html .

According to http://www.moneyextra.com/glossary/gl00278.htm inflation between
1998 and 2003 was about 12.5 per cent, which would bring the index up to
592 x 1.125 = 666.
So from 1886 to 1998 prices rose 666/9.4 = 71 times.
So £418.93 in 1886 would buy the same as £418.93 x 71 = about £30,000 in 2003.

ONS Names Index
THIS DATABASE is an extract of an Office of National Statistics database, and
contains a list of surnames in use in England, Wales and the Isle of Mann in
September 2002. The list contains almost 270,000 surnames, shared by
54.4 million people. The entire database contains over a million surnames,
shared by 55.9 million people, but names shared by fewer that five people
have been excluded from this list. The database was established in 1998,
and births are continually added, but the 1.5 million deaths between 1998
and 2002 have not been weeded from the system. The database is also said
to include a level of duplicate entries and misspelt surnames, as well as people
currently living abroad and temporary visitors to England and Wales. However,
experience suggests that multiplying the result for your surname by 0.93 will
give a good idea of the living population for your surname, and multiplying by
3.5 will give the population since the start of parish registers in the 16th century.

Second Edition of British Isles Vital Records Index

Update adds 7.3 million names to popular research tool

Millions more birth, christening and marriage records from selected parishes in the
British Isles, some dating back more than 450 years, are being made available to
the public on compact disc by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,
the world's foremost authority on genealogy.

The British Isles Vital Records Index (Second Edition) updates and includes
the previously released British Isles Vital Records Index Resource File
(published in 1998). The second edition adds approximately 7.3 million names
to the index for a total of 12.3 million. There are approximately 10.4 million birth
and christening records and 1.9 million marriage records. Spanning an approximate
time period from 1530 to 1906, this new set of 16 compact discs contains information
on deceased people in England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the Isle of Man.

"Nearly half of American families can trace part of their lineage to the British Isles,"
said Elder D. Todd Christofferson, executive director of the Family and Church
History Department. "Our repository of records is the most comprehensive source
available to help these families trace their roots to their forebears in 16th- to
20th- century England. These CDs may save families hundreds of hours of time
and painstaking research," Christofferson said. "The process is as simple as
typing in a name."

Information in the British Isles Vital Records Index (Second Edition) includes the
name of the deceased individual and of the spouse or parents. Also included, when
available, are the date and place where the birth, christening or marriage was registered.
Reference information allows users to locate the original record on a microfilm in the
Family History Library collection.

The update includes some records from all counties in England, Ireland, Scotland
and Wales. Some records from the Isle of Man are also included. The time span,
content and availability of the records vary greatly from parish to parish within each
county. It is not a complete index; some counties are more heavily represented than
others. A complete breakdown of records by county is listed at www.familysearch.org.

The CD set also includes the most recent version of the Family History Resource File
Viewer program. Other features include a parent search, book marking, print
options and GEDCOM export.

Several people have sent me this url information.

======= The British-Genealogy.com Project ========
:                 http://www.british-genealogy.com
:
:               A NEW GENEALOGY WEB SITE
:                                 *AND*
:        NEW BRITISH GENEALOGY MAILING LISTS
:
: British-Genealogy.com is dedicated to assisting people with their
: British family history research.
:
: Not just to find ancestors and build a family tree, but to put meat on
: the bones with information about where they lived, how they lived their
: lives, information about their occupations, and what influenced their
: thinking and decision making.
:
: Real family history - not just collecting names and dates
:
: Our aim is to give you guidance, pointers towards carrying out good
: quality, sound research, and help on how to find the relevant sources of
: information that will help you in your quest.
:
: To begin with, we are giving you one of the most valuable resources
: available on the internet - help from each other and from the experts.
: These are the genealogy mailing lists, which are discussion forums on
: various topics, and geographical areas. When you have a question then
: this is the first place to ask for help.
:
: This is totally free.
:
: NEW mailing lists have been set up in a clear, logical, easy to use and
: easy to find system, one for each county in Britain, together with some
: more general top and specific topic mailing lists. They are open and
: running now at http://www.british-genealogy.com
:
: Once you subscribe to one of the British-Genealogy mailing lists, you
: are provided with your own page where you can set up your own
: preferences for how you receive the messages, subscribe to different
: mailing lists, turn off the mail when you go on holiday, or remove
: yourself from a mailing list. You are in total control, even if you
: change your email address.
:
: So.... go now, and look at http://www.british-genealogy.com
:
: It is a great new project.... and different!
:
: ** There is no daily newsletter, junk mail, or similar from British
: Genealogy.com. There isn't even a master list kept of all email
: addresses.
:
: ** The British-Genealogy web site will be totally free. (No pay to view
: subscriptions). I don't have any problem with pay to own, for example a
: certificate, book, CD or copy of a parish register, but I do not think
: that it is right to have to pay to locate an ancestor. I have always
: stood by this principle, and hence my close contacts with FreeBMD,
: FreeCEN and FreeREG.
:
: ** The lists are easy to locate, and there is *only* one list for a
: county instead of several confusingly named ones. The new lists are in a
: very uniform and logical format, with meaningful list names, and the
: facility to have sub divisions of a county where necessary if there are
: distinct cultural areas. But we won't be having any "pseudo" county
: lists (modern counties) or regional lists that cover more than one
: county. Nor will we be having any list duplication.
:
: ** The whole thing is run on a different type of mailing list software
: to what people normally know. It allows each user to control how they
: configure their own list subscriptions with a login to their *own*
: configuration page, and it has some pretty neat features too, such as
: suspend mail whilst on vacation, or simply switch between list and
: digest mode.
:
: ** Archives are brilliantly searchable. A person can search them *and*
: sort them by poster name, thread, or date, or subject line. They can be
: made accessible to subscribers only, or to anybody, (depending on how
: the list admin sets it up).
:
: So.... go now, and look at http://www.british-genealogy.com
: and join any of the British-Genealogy discussion mailing lists - to help
: you with your research, and to have the opportunity to help others.

The "TIMES" to-day reports that the first phase of Gazettes-Online will be
aunched this month.
The Stationery Office is working to place the London Gazette, the
Edinburgh Gazette, and the Belfast Gazette online. These are official
publications, "Published by Authority" which list all sorts of Official
notices, including awards of medals and decorations, appointments,
obituaries, bankruptcy notices etc, etc, dating back to1665.
The first release covers the two world wars and 20th Century honours and
awards. The next phase will include the rest of the 20th Century editions.
In total the London Gazette consists of 56,000 editions [two million pages],
and the article in the Times says that the site will have a search facility
so that family historians will be able to check awards of gallantry medals,
promotion of officers, changes of name, or naturalisation of an ancestor
simply by typing in a surname.
The site is www.gazettes-online.co.uk but do not all rush, it might turn
out to be like the 1901 census!!

The May issue of Family History Monthly has an interesting article about
apprenticeship records. It says there are 3 main sources, but they are
incomplete, and your best chance of finding an apprentice ancestor would
be if he was apprenticed in London.

The Society of Genealogists have indexed the registers of apprentices from
1710 to 1774. Apprenticeships up to 1850 can be found on www.englishorigins.com .
The original records of these are in the Guildhall Library which you can visit quite
easily in London. It would be worth reading this article as it gives lot of background.
Apprenticeships lasted up to 7 years.

UK LAUNCHES NATIONAL ARCHIVES

Last month, the United Kingdom introduced its National Archives on the World
Wide Web. During the next 12 months, the Public Record Office (PRO) and the
Historical Manuscripts Commission (HMC) will join forces to allow online research
of documents and materials that cover 1,000 years of British history.

Currently, you can search the PRO's catalog, PROCAT, to access databases of
equity pleadings, hospital records and more. If you need some guidance, the
nformation Leaflets section of the site provides an introduction to PROCAT and
links to available records. Those who wish to access British history manuscripts
will find the HMC's ARCHON Directory particularly helpful. Researchers simply
enter the directory for a list of records repositories in the United Kingdom and
throughout the world. Keep checking the site for updates to its resources.

CENSUS

The following info from Stephen Miller of Leeds Indexers:-
Just a quick note to you all.  The 1901 Census GuessTimator will not longer
work due to changes to the PRO Census Site.  I have noted that they have changed
the set up so that although personid numbers remain constant as they were –
the pageid numbers change with each session (using some type of formula). 
So I’m afraid it’s no longer possible to generate the Piece and Folio Numbers.
This will be the same for all other similar type programs.
The data ass supplied by Jeff Knaggs will also be obsolete
I note that the program "1901 England & Wales Census Decoder" at
http://www.censusdecoder.com/ still works although the Piece and Folio pages are
N/A as the pageid is always different.  I compared a saved version from before the
address update and it now changes with every restart of IE.

ENG 1986 DOMESDAY

U.K. National Archives Rescues 1986 Domesday Project
The Domesday book was commissioned in December 1085 by William the
Conqueror, who invaded England in 1066. The first draft was completed in
August 1086 and contained records for 13,418 settlements in the English
counties south of the rivers Ribble and Tees (the border with Scotland at the time).
 The result was 35 volumes that listed the identities of the tenants-in-chief
(landholders) who held their lands directly from the Crown, and of their tenants
and under tenants. For more details about the Domesday Book, look at:
http://www.domesdaybook.co.uk/story.html

Nine hundred years after the Domesday Book was written, the BBC commissioned
a new survey. The map of the United Kingdom was divided into rectangles
measuring 3km by 4km. A school or group of schools took ownership of each of
 these rectangles and collected data about it. Typically this consisted of the type of
land cover, how many amenities existed, a set of photographs, and up to 20 pages
of text. Over 14,000 schools and 2000 other groups were involved in this massive
data collection exercise.

The BBC Domesday project was completed in 1986. The collection of text and
photographs was recorded onto the latest 1986 state-of-the-art storage media: two
2" videodiscs that could be played by using a BBC Master computer connected to
special LV-ROM player. Sadly, not many of those units exist anymore.

The contents of these videodiscs have now been put on DVD, and new programs
have been written so that PCs can access the data. Interestingly, most of the images
and films were not recovered from the videodiscs, but instead were re-digitized from
the original analog films at a higher resolution than the videodiscs contained.
The curious reader can find more about how this data was recovered and re-recorded
on the Public Record Office website at:

Cambridgeshire Baptisms in Dr William's Library 1742 -1837
by V & N Uffindell
Non conformist Ministers began in 1742 to collect together the "General
Register of Births" (i.e. Non Conformist Births) and arranged for it to be
housed in Dr Williams' Library in London. The original initiative came from
the Baptist, Presbyterian and Congregationalist churches.
Registration was open not only to Londoners and to Non-Conformists, but to
any parents who were willing to sign the certificate and to pay the 6d fee.
It was poorly used until 1769, when it became a repository for Non-
Conformist Minister's books. The whole was handed over to the Registrar
General in 1837.
1200 entries for people born in Cambridgeshire have been extracted by Norman
and Vicky Uffindell, and the full information is available on the Cambridge
Record Office shelves, and will be published by CFHS shortly.

It is the website of the Dorset Migration Index, which is slightly misleading as the index
itself is not on the site, and I see no information that is planned to be.
However there is a fair bit of information about why the index is being compiled and who
is compiling it.
There is also a really good article about population changes in Dorset. Well designed and
easy to navigate the website is attractive to look at as well as being informative and interesting.

A new edition of the 1831 census is now available from: -
Victorian Census Project: http://www.staffs.ac.uk/census

As it is a university project, it may not be a listing, more of a study of
it, still it should tell you which areas it survives.\

The Essex Society for Family History has published  pre-1841 censuses,
where they survive, in fiche form which are quite cheap to buy. There is for
instance a Saffron Walden census of 1811, the original of which is still in the town.

The Register of Essex-Related Dead of World War II

The Register is a database of people born, resident, educated, worked, died and/or buried
in the county of Essex (the old County, right up to the River Lea and thus including many
places now in Greater London), or who have some other connection with the county, and
whose death was attributable to World War II.  The database includes service personnel and
civilian air raid victims, internees, etc.
There is an on-line name index at my website (URL below), which I have just updated and
which now contains a little over 9,000 entries.  I still have more than 5,000 names to add
over coming months.  The information held on each entry varies - it may be just a name
from a war memorial, but it might be chapter-and-verse on the person, including
circumstances of death, where buried, etc.
Anyone finding a name or several of interest may e-mail me for the full entry. 
I try and respond with two days, but this isn't always possible.  There is no charge
for this service.
I will also welcome details about those who are or whom you think should be on the
database.
