Technical Help / Ancestry Error Messages...
« on: Thursday 08 February 24 16:03 GMT (UK)  »
What needs to be addressed in the Ancestry account settings please?

Wishing to view an 'Public' Ancestry tree that is labelled "NO TREES" I ask the tree owner to invite me as a GUEST or to simply make the tree PUBLIC.
The tree owner often responds that their tree has always been 'Public'.
Sometimes when trying again, I get a second error message [below] implying that invitations are time-limited or provisional.

What needs to be addressed in the Ancestry account settings please?

« on: Saturday 13 January 24 19:33 GMT (UK)  »
What is the Red Line implying?

This  is a bit of a puzzle to me as the entry below, seems accurate but is red lined with the tag [See below]

I would like to find Margaret earlier perhaps on an Electoral Roll or on the 1921 census.

I believe that I have an accurate death in Devizes, Wilts and burial in Bath, Somerset. and a Dorset electoral roll 1961-1962 in Cattistock.

Name   Margaret Verdon
Gender   Female
Marital Status   Single
Birth Date   15 Jul. 1897
Residence Date   1939
Address   West Field Carrington Rd
Residence Place   Spalding, Lincolnshire (Parts of Holland), England
Occupation   Lcc Voluntary Helper

The Common Room / Crematorium and cemetery: Next of kin records?
« on: Saturday 13 January 24 00:29 GMT (UK)  »
In general, do Cemetery and Crematorium records refer to next of kin?

I hope to trace the family of the life partner [then known as 'Companion'] of my aunt before they split up.
I find now find that they are both in the same Bath cemetery but
without a middle name, her names seem quite common especally in Ireland.

On the electoral roll they are both listed on the 1961/1962 in the Dorset village of Cattistock before moving to Bath, Somerset.
