Thanks very much for that information and will certainly follow that up (a direction I wouldn't have thought of)

In the meantime would appreciate if someone with access to anc.co.uk could have a look at the transcript to see if it gives any further information possibly of age and/or crime committed etc.

Thanks

Herefordshire / Criminal Register or News Reports Hereford

Can anyone help please

Looking for information on a Trial for Christopher Herbert July 1856.

Gained the above basic informaton from the England and Wales Criminal Register on Ancestry but cannot access any further - have also tried the Gale Newspapers but seems to be very little news from Hereford.

Would be grateful for any further information.

Thanks Valry

Hi All,

Thanks Ray - tried 'all' the different copies I appear to have made and yes, there is FBK amongst them but they are all coming up as from when I put on to a disc to back them up.  Still, worth a try.  Hopefully lessons have been learned and as I plod to bring file upto date, other memories besides F.T. will keep coming to haunt me. 

Thanks for your patience.

I went into the officerecovery site mentioned, but afraid I chickened out when it said 'download'.   

Definitely going to go for the external hard drive - but hearing so many cases of being ripped off just wondered which.

Thanks again one and all and thank goodness for Roots Chat

YES YES YES.  Thank you all for your patience.   

I now have a workable copy although it is six months old thought it better to do catch up than trying to find the one I recycled and emptied - more than likely I would have made another right mess.

Thanks Ray, followed your instructions I now have more copies in different formats and with different names but will sort that later.  I don't think any will be deleted though.

I certainly must look at an external hard drive option.  Being cheeky after this help, what do I actually look for to buy and is it the same sort of 'thing' as a memory stick?

First thank you all for your comments.

After taking note of the comments, now have some improvement.   Managed to find one file with a small amount of info on but the info wasnt my family, but it did prove I still had the actual programme on the computer.

Now have located a disc with FTW back up from August 2010 of work in progress which has a lot of my information on.

Dilemma now - I have the programme open on computer and dvd disc still inserted.  How do I save the information back to computer so I can remove the disc?

Also would it be better to cut my losses and do catch up or still try to find all of the information.

Your continued help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks for replying.

Yes I did empty recycle bin (lesson learnt)   

I do have a system restore, but have never delved before, which I believe restores each week. 

Have just got to pop out so perhaps I will try and find it later - (unfortunately computer literate son who usually sorts out computer illiterate mother is out of the country at the moment - ouch)

I believe I still have the 'set up' disc also I have an older copy on the lap top - would either of those help me?

Can anyone please help.

Yesterday I decided to delete some files from computer to create space and woe is me - have just discovered I have lost my FTM File.

Any help on restoring it please.

Thanks Valry
