Hello all. Several days ago I posted on the USA board a query and received a series of great links....They are all related to Family Search and when I clicked on a link, it gave me a screen that said I need to recover my Family Search account.  AND, it showed a user name that is actually my regular e-mail addy.  I have tried several other ways to access, including using my password but to no avail. Clearly, I am doing something wrong. (We had a tropical storm go through the area yesterday so I thought my ISP was having issues, but that is not the case today.)  I must be doing something wrong as FS seems to recognize my account by giving me my phone number and name, too.... Thanks for any assistance and thanks for reading this cry for help.  Sincerely, patrexjax

Hello all! This post MAY relate back to my earlier post of yet another Spoor/Wealleans marriage. This one has some confusing (to me!) issues. Firstly, one on line source (IGI) indicates that George Spoors was b 15 May 1811 in Whittingham to James Spoors and Isabella Vass. The "problem" is his spouse, Elizabeth Willans who is described in one source (My Heritage) as being born 1812 in Framlington; another source (Ancestry) shows her born 1816 and died 1851. Ancestry also shows George Spoors being born in North Shields! Since I can't seem to find an appropriate George in any census, I am wondering if, perhaps, there may, in fact, be two different George Spoors. That forename, however, is fairly uncommon in those Spoor men I have found.  Can any keen-eyed Rootschatter please make sense of these two different sources? Thank you kindly, Sincerely, patrexjax

Hello all! I am seeking the parents and John Joseph with them in an applicable census. My information is that he was born 24 March 1871 in the Morpeth district; his Father was reportedly an Andrew Wealleans. This is where I am getting confused, as there are two Andrew Wealleans living, I think, around that time. Sorry, but I don't have any information as to who John Joseph's Mother would be as I am having difficulty accessing GRO site for that help. I have already found John Joseph with his wife, Sarah Jane Lambert whom he married in 1891and their children.  I will appreciate ANY and all assistance! Thanking you in advance, most sincerely, patrexjax

Hello all! I am hoping someone may have access to marriage details for Robert Soulsby who married 30 Sep 1811 at All Saints, Newcastle. His bride, Mary Gillander, was born 19 June 1791 in Whickham, Co Durham; her parents were also from Whickham. My puzzle is Robert Soulsby. Can anyone help with his parents and/or date and place of birth? Thank you kindly! Sincerely, patrexjax
