Nanny Jans Scavenger Hunt ....
« on: Tuesday 09 October 07 09:33 BST (UK) »

Welcome to the first of the Yellow Tail Gangs Scavenger Hunts

The honour belongs to Nanny Jan this week.

Normally I would be posting these hunts on a Wednesday, but we've got a big storm in the area and if the power goes off Nanny Jan would miss out.

OK everyone .. ...  . good luck

Just to say that I'm having a look every so often. Nothing yet  :(
Do you know of any siblings for Francis and Isabella?
Also, Jan, have you checked all the workhouses in the area. I've found a lot of OH's that way. Their names/P of B might be entered wrongly.

Just to say that I've had a look through City of London and Hackney WHs and the Infirmary and nothing there. :-\

Anyone know of any missing EDs, etc. for 1881?

Better brains than mine may be able to unravel it all....
