Sorry if this has already been discussed, but has anyone had a real answer from the FindMyPast team to any of their queries.

They responded so far as to ask for more information on the household that I was charged twice for, which I sent them, but it's now becoming weeks and still no direct response as to why I got charged twice for the same household, on the same page, when I tried to reopen it.

They have not corrected this error.

Does anyone know if clicking the wrong name in the household, automatically burns up credits like this?

Hi all,

Not sure whether this is my computer or the Ancestry.co.uk site.

I can connect, logged in etc. but any attempt to do a search or even select a database or look for trees gives me connection error problems.  However connecting to everything else OK.

Had a problem for last couple of days that screen formatting on FTDNA site, match listings page, has gone crazy, but that just seems to be with IE(11).

The Ancestry problem occurs just the same in Firefox too.

Any suggestions?

I have a yahoo uk email account that is quite old and have used for a variety of purposes. It is not he one that I use to log in here.

Since yesterday evening it has sent out at least two spam emails to a variety of addresses, many of which I haven't used for about 10 years.

I don't think anyone has logged in as me, as nothing seems to have changed in the account and it is not saving the messages in the Sent folder although the default is set to do that.

The only evidence of these messages so far is auto-reply or bounced back from addresses not in use, but the bounced back messages list addresses the messages were sent to.

I didn't think that there was a contacts list attached to that account but it refers to contacts within my profile but won't let me get in to delete them at present.

Can anyone advise what I can do? I'm not well and could do without this stress.

Hi,

I've put this in Ireland General, as I think that the Robert Cuthbert that I am looking for may have come from elsewhere than Wicklow, where he was living in 1825 (maybe from 1810 onwards), or Dublin where his son Henry later lived.

My Great-great-great-grandfather Henry Cuthbert lived in Dublin from about 1825 onwards.  He was a bookbinder, having been apprenticed from 1825-1832, and seems to have first married an Elizabeth and later a Martha.  His indentures prohibit marriage, so I presume his first marriage was not earlier than 1832 and that his second marriage took place before 1841.  He had at least one son with Elizabeth (in September 1832) and she probably died in 1834, possibly in or following childbirth.  However, I can find neither marriage.

His apprenticeship indentures state that his father was Robert Cuthbert, steward of Kilquade house in County Wicklow.  However, his birth/baptism does not seem to have been recorded there.

There are a Robert and Olivia whose children were baptised in Delgany close to Kilquade, from 1810 onwards, that I am guessing may be the same family but my Henry is also thought to have had a brother James with no evidence for his baptism at Delgany either.

As the family resident at Kilquade House at that time were of military background, I thought is possible that Robert had also been in the army prior to his employment there.

However, I have been unable to find any evidence of this.

So I am looking for:
1. Robert Cuthbert, father of Henry (and possibly also James), before 1810 - marriage and children born prior to 1810. .. or possibly just before 1825, in case the earlier Robert and Olivia at Delgany were just a coincidence.
2. Henry Cuthbert, marriage to Elizabeth - I have a baptism for their son Robert Thomas in 1832 at St Peters (CoI, Dublin), his army records and some later court documents.
3. Henry Cuthbert, second marriage to Martha - I have a baptism for their daughter Emma in 1842 also at St Peter's, but have not yet found one for their son Henry born about 1841.
4. James Cuthbert?

Apologies if some or all of these questions appeared elsewhere a long time ago but I am trying to take a fresh look at these problems.  If I find earlier threads I will link them in.

Hi all,

I'm looking for several baptisms in Dublin with the name of O'Brien (or sometimes variants).

Unfortunately, as this is so common, it's not possible to be sure that I have found all the possible options, let alone the correct one.

I have now found one with a consistent year of birth around 1851 and location of birth as Bride Street.

Would this be in the RC parish of St Nicholas at that time? or were there other options that I should check too?
