London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Elizabeth Purdy Baptism
« on: Friday 28 January 22 15:06 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for a baptism of an Elizabeth Purdy d/o George and Mary if anyone can help please.

Elizabeth was on the 1841 with her parents and siblings in Hammersmith aged 15 (age could of been 15-19ish)

I found all her siblings as far as I know, at the LMA a number of years ago, but was missing Elizabeths, since becoming more established with the new layout of Familysearch I have not been able to locate information there.

Her elder sister Lydia baptised November 1821 and her younger brother William baptised May 1827 both at St Pauls Hammersmith, younger siblings were baptised at St Peters Hammersmith

 
Many thanks

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Help with a link to the Family Search site
« on: Friday 21 January 22 11:02 GMT (UK)  »
Hello

Back in 2012 on the Family Search site I received this link.  I have since tried it and the message is appearing - 'page not found'  It has been a long time since using this site and the format seems to have changed considerably, unfortunately I don't know my way around it now.  Can anyone suggest an alternative on that site as I found it quite useful at the time.  I am looking for all children baptised of the couple George and Mary Purdy baptised in Middlesex, possibly Hammersmith.

Many thanks for any help.

Technical Help / Memory Stick
« on: Tuesday 11 February 20 15:38 GMT (UK)  »
I have had census images saved to a memory stick for a number of years, I bought a set of 3 Cruzer Glide SanDisk memory sticks in the hope to save the same photos onto these.

On my original memory stick which is also from SanDisk I can click, for instance 1871 and all the the images for 1871 come up on the screen and then click anyone to view it.

On these new memory sticks I have bought I click on 1871 but no census images are appearing, I have clicked on the option 'icons' under the option 'view' there is no census image.

Please see attachment for what I can see instead of an image.

Any advise gratefully received

Technical Help / GEDCOM

Regarding transferring information from one family history program to another.  In very very basic terms how would you transfer this information from one program to another one.
Thank you

Hi, I am looking to buy a new family history program, the one I have currently is well over 20 years old (Family Tree Genealogy Suite).  Reason being is that it was intended for a 32 bit, the computer I am using now is a 64 bit and I cannot open the program. 

First issue is can anyone recommend a good program to use, I don't need it to hold a lot of intricate details, I just need to transfer all my information I currently hold into a new family history program.  Secondly, this GEDCOM business does worry me, in all the years I have done my family history I have never used this method, never had the reason to.  Question is how easy/difficult would it be to transfer all my connections/relationships/trees over to a new program, I need to have it done as I have no other way of looking at my information.

Thanks for any advice

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Photo Alteration of my friend Trevor
« on: Tuesday 07 November 17 21:13 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone help alter this photograph of my deceased friend Trevor for me please.  I am hoping to have the date stamp etc removed from Trevor's right arm as you look at the photo on the left, and also the fridge magnets on the fridge in the background.

Many thanks

I sent a photo for alteration yesterday, just wondered how long it normally takes nowadays  to become visible on the site.  I have posted many a photo for this sort of thing in the past but there was never any sort of moderation for it and it came up almost instantly.

Many thanks
Ewan :)
