Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re:1841 Census lookup
« on: Tuesday 27 April 04 09:25 BST (UK) »
Hi Janet B
Thank you for mention of these sites. I have not looked at them yet because I need to know the following;
Do you have to subscribe to them to get the information? The reason I ask is because I am not in a finacial position to start subscribing to a number of sites. I am also very wary of generating more SPAM messages in my email box. I have enough of them already.
If I do have to subscribe to any sites, which are the most cost effective?
How expensive exactly.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / 1841 Census lookup
« on: Sunday 11 April 04 22:47 BST (UK) »
If someone has access to the 1841 census could they please look up James Dawson & wife Martha.
James was born Heptonstall Stansfield 29/03/1785 and married Martha at Heptonstall 1805. They had a daughter Alice who married in 1829. I am afraid I have no other information.
Thanks for your help.

The Common Room / Re:Finding adoption details
« on: Tuesday 06 April 04 15:12 BST (UK) »
Adoptions that took place before 1926 were not legalised and were usually arranged privately through a solicitor or the family doctor. No official documents were required so it can be virtually impossible to trace natural parents of adoptees.
I have come up against this problem myself when I discovered that my father who was born in 1923 was adopted and although I have his birth certificate I have been unable to find any record of the adoption.
Is there any relative still living that may be able to help?
