Parry   Christiana Mary   Llanrwst   XXVII   188   

I think that this is the daughter of 'my' Mary. They had another son, John M Parry, whose middle name was Middleton, and he died before the 1851 census was taken. Now 'Mary' is Christiana Mary, and apparently 'Franklin' is Thomas Franklin Middleton. Makes me wonder what other names Charlotte may have possessed  ::)

Not ignoring the thread, just been a bit busy all day so I will get on to comparing these records tonight.

If it's still not working in the morning (I highly doubt it will be at this stage) then I may just give them a ring on the number they have for New Zealand.

It's a little over 600 people. Usually it takes about 30 seconds - 1 minute to download.

Three days is a bit far-fetched for 600 people I'm thinking  :P

Technical Help / COMPLETED Can't download GEDCOM off Ancestry!
« on: Thursday 09 February 12 09:21 GMT (UK)  »
I've been trying for what must be three days now to download my GEDCOM from Ancestry to my computer as I tend to do every time I spend a few hours working on the tree (JIC!)

When I go to download from my 'Kennett Family Tree' it acts like it's about to download but then doesn't.

" Generating a GEDCOM file...
(0% completed)
This could take some time, but your export will continue to process even if you leave this page. Once it's finished, a button will appear here allowing you to download your GEDCOM file."

It starts at 0%, works its way up to 1% and then drops again and stays like that until I leave the page. If I return to the page to try again, it goes back to 1% and drops to 0% again.

I have tried in both Google Chrome and IE8, logging out of Ancestry and logging in again, restarting my laptop and trying again, using a separate desktop computer on a different internet network to no avail.

I e-mailed Ancestry the day I started experiencing this problem and all they've said is "they appreciate my e-mail, and hope to have it fixed soon, and have they sorted my problem for me?" ::)

I can download the other three trees I have online with ease, it's just this one that's being a pain in the behind (of course it's the most important one!).

If anyone could tell me if there's a way to download the GEDCOM by other means, or perhaps a way to actually get Ancestry to do something about it?? ;) ;D I'd be grateful!

Cheery!

Given how common Mary's born c. 1813, in Wales and married to a John Parry seem to be, there are a fair few 1861 census records and I can't figure out which one belongs to 'my' Mary and family. I haven't seen any Franklin's or Thomas Franklin M P's on any, however.

Wales / PARRY: Are these the same child?
« on: Thursday 09 February 12 05:28 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all!  ;D

Need another bit of help here, this time with a child by the name Franklin PARRY.

1851 Census:

Name:   Franklin Parry
Age:   1
Estimated Birth Year:    abt 1850
Relation:   Son
Father's Name:   John Parry
Mother's name:   Mary Parry
Gender:   Male
Where born:   Rhyl, Flintshire, Wales

I can't find Franklin Parry in the birth indexes for 1848-1850 but I can find a Thomas Franklin Middleton PARRY

Surname     Given Name     Age     District     Volume     Page
Births Dec 1849   
PARRY    Thomas Franklin Middleton        Asaph St    27   184

and a death in 1851

Surname     Given Name     Age     District     Volume     Page
Deaths Jun 1851
Parry   Thomas Franklin Middleton      St Asaph   XXVII   1_4

The only marriage I can see on FreeBMD for Franklin Parry is someone in 1905 with a different middle name.

Would you say these two are the same child ???

Kent / Re: Searching for Kennett Family History
« on: Sunday 05 February 12 21:34 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Metha,

I wonder if this will get a response, given it's been 18 months! Still, worth a try!.

I am descended from Stephen Kennett and Elizabeth Marsh as well, through their son Thomas born in 1730. If you still haven't found who Stephen's parents are, his father was one William Kennett b. 1659? d. 1727 and his mother was Ann (possibly Court).

I have been lucky enough to receive transcriptions of wills from a Kennett cousin also descended from these Kennett's for William and his son Stephen (b. 1682) and Stephen's son William (b. 1715) and Thomas (b. 1730) should you a) see this and b) be interested! ;)

Would love to find out what else you have now - I love meeting new Kennett cousins given that it's my own name!

Cheery!
Georgia

Oh, while I think of it, I've also got the Marsh wills if you'd like to see them. That offer goes out to anyone related to these folks too!

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Someone Dodd... Name recognition please
« on: Thursday 02 February 12 10:04 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Moolerr,

I have PM'ed you my e-mail address.

I currently do not have an Ancestry sub going so I can't view other people's trees unless I have been invited to view them via e-mail.

If you could tell me in an e-mail how 'our' Dodd's are related then we can go from there!  :)
