Technical Help / Laptop trouble please help.
« on: Friday 28 August 09 18:03 BST (UK)  »
I have a Packard Bell laptop with vista home basic ( 8 months old) I have tried logging in but after the welcome screen comes up the screen goes completely black. I have tried switching it of and then logging in as a guest but it says "logging off"and goes back to the same screen. I am puzzled it was working fine this morning .I had just installed some new security software which required a restart, well it hasn't restarted since. The software was Kaspersky which I have on my PC and have never had any problems.
Please can someone offer any help, this is my 9 year old sons lap top and he is going to be so upset.

Canada / Advice on home children please
« on: Saturday 25 July 09 17:04 BST (UK)  »
I'm trying to find records on a home child who was sent to Winnipeg. I have found him on the Canadian archives web site but there is very little information on the record.
I really just wanted some advice on where to look for records of him after he arrived in Canada. I know he was sent to a farm but the children must have been sent to one central place when they arrived.
I think he was one of Louisa Birts children and he arrived in Canada in 1911.  If there is anyone who has researched the subject, I would appreciate it if you have any ideas on where he would have been sent?
Many thanks.

Is it my computer because I can't access this website?  I wondered if maybe it had moved or was no longer available.
It's been driving me crazy all afternoon.
Many Thanks

Northumberland / Morpeth reform school
« on: Saturday 20 June 09 13:40 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
I'm trying to find information on Netherton Training School/ reformatory, Morpeth. I seem to be going around in circles and unable to find anything.  There is a reference to it on the workhouses site but no information on the place itself.
Any help much needed and appreciated.
Thanks in advance. :D

Warwickshire Lookup Requests / Help to find a marriage
« on: Saturday 02 May 09 14:52 BST (UK)  »
Any help appreciated as I just can't find a marriage for:
Joel Levi Abrahams to Sarah?
Must have been in Birmingham but I can't find it on Ancestry or by searching free bmd.
The 1911 census says they have been married for 30 years but nothing in 1880 - 81.
Roots chatters always come up trumps. ;D
Thanks
Tina

The Common Room / historical weather forecast
« on: Thursday 09 April 09 21:19 BST (UK)  »
Evening
Does anyone know of a web site that has weather statistics.
IE: is there any way of finding out what the weather was doing for a certain day, date.
Probably a daft question but I assume there must be records.
Thanks in advance.
Tina
