Hi, all.
I din't know about anyone else, but one of the hardest things researching in Cumberland is, that people pop in and out of the county in all directions -
over the Scottish Border, including Gretna Green!,
across the sea to Ireland,
over to the Isle of Man,
hop on a boat to any destination you care to mention - or link to it via Liverpool,
not to mention the ones who come and go in twos and three's over the generations.
It doesn't solve everything, but I came across this brilliant post in the new posts, for just a few miles over the border in Scotland. All sorts of records etc, too many to mention!
So if you've lost someone have a look!
Rootschat, I hope it's okay to post this here, but this really is a major headache from Cumbria, especially the north and coast, and this is where the people with the headaches will be looking!!
Best wishes
Emms
