Fife / Ron McLaren
« on: Monday 02 August 10 00:54 BST (UK)  »
I wonder if I might  find an obituary for Ron McLaren, who used to be the Head Librarian in Kirkaldy? He died in the last few days (in Kirkaldy).
He was a very nice man, and very conversant in Library matters.

« on: Tuesday 24 November 09 00:54 GMT (UK)  »
Hello:
I am looking for Moses Maish , I think, in Bedminster, Gloucestershire.
I think he was married to an Ann (e) Powles.
Moses was born in 1793, I think, and Ann in that same range.
Latter Day saints have them married in 1812.
Daughter Mary Ann Maish (b1813) married James Abbott (b. 1813)
He was born in Stour (Stower) Provost and  they were married in 1837.
I would like to know if there were other children, if possible.

Dorset Lookup Requests / Henry Morgan
« on: Sunday 29 March 09 20:58 BST (UK)  »
In Dorset I am working on a family, that of Henry Morgan (1827, Dorset), and his Wife, Louisa (Abbott) (1833, Dorset). Henry and Louisa married in Shaftesbury in 1853. Henry's father was Charles Morgan.
By 1861 they had several children. My g Grandmother, Annie Dyke Morgan was born in 1864. But...."Father" Henry was not in the 61 census, having died (or absconded?)
I have been looking in ancestry (member) and on Doset PCO sites, as well as Free Cen/Reg/BMD.
Any advice about site to visit would be useful.
Thank you
