Technical Help / Blank bar, no mini-icons, along bottom of screen
« on: Sunday 07 January 24 13:49 GMT (UK)  »
Blank bar at bottom of screen, suddenly - perhaps it's a co-incidence, but same day as L-O-N-G time trying to get Virgin to help me access own e-mail service (Well, it worked then for a bit after 2 long phone calls to a real person - yes!) - but I still couldn't get to sign in myself!!
Then I noticed no little icons for files, pictures, Word or even jigsaws, at all along bottom.
Has anyone any idea why, or what I can do about it? I always blame microsoft, but....

Sorry, I know I should be able to find this, and I even suspect someone's helped me with a similar situation, but I can't manage, after two days of trying, and it's makoing me feel so dim!
Help please - as non-technical as possible!

I know I'm pretty dim, but OH kindly loaded new colour cartridge in my Canon (MG3650S) printer, we tried to follow the instructions through, all coming out with pallid horizontal lines, and trying to follow online manual simply seems to take us round in circles. and we seem to get nowhere. Any idiot-prooof guidance, please? His printer is working fine, mine is all horizontal lines

Family History Beginners Board / Elizabeth Cox, married name Keating, Fleetwood area?
« on: Thursday 06 January 22 16:07 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to find out a little about the second wife of one of my ancestors. Andrew Keating, born Ireland, possibly Dublin, a bread baker, who had a first wife Margaret Williams (bornJones), they married in 1888.

He seems to have remarried in 1917 after Margaret had died, and moved from Southport to Fleetwood. He married an Elizabeth Cox, in 1917, but I can't seem to find any trace of her in the Fleetwood area. Any brainwaves? I think it's unlikely they had children.

The Common Room / Can I find residents via searching the address in 1939 register?
« on: Saturday 02 October 21 16:59 BST (UK)  »
Sorry if this is a really dim question, and I'm sure that I ought to know the answer, but I've half an idea that some members of a family may be living in one part of a certain road, in 1939. I'm not quite sure of which members, nor am I certain of the exact address on the road - but other than landing fortuitously on the right road and going forward and backwards with arrows ( and that probably wouldn't work, because I'm unsure of the "married" surname) is there a specific route to follow? Thanks for reading this query.
(I'm seeking Bispham road, Southport Lancs)

Having thought that I could do it, I created a very simplified tree of one line of my ancestry that someone I know is interested in, and that we both share. She is an Ancestry member, too.
I have been given access to other people's trees in the past, and I allowed someone access to my main tree, I think - but I can't remember how to do it - and is it possible to manage to give access to it for only that one tree, not any others one has on Ancestry? I can't actually seem to come upon any help from Ancestry itself.
Guidance / advice would be most welcome. I'm feeling dim about it.

The Stay Safe Board / Boris's 4.00 broadcast today 19 December 2020

Anything we didn't guess?
Will people really take notice?
Why were people allowed to think mixing would be fine?
Why can't they say, if they don't know?
-and remember, there are lies, damn lies, and statistics, and we all know that.
Laure Keunssberg (sorry, not sure of spelling) is a gem! More power to her microphone.

The Common Room / Ancestry playing up, today 25th Nov?
« on: Wednesday 25 November 20 15:33 GMT (UK)  »
Is anyone else finding that Ancestry seems to be in a bit of a tangle today? "This site cannot be reached" etc when trying to access people, and very slow and muddled?
-Or is it me?
