London & Middlesex Resources / Re: London WW1 Memorial site
« on: Saturday 02 June 18 21:37 BST (UK)  »
Among my old family photos there was one of a WW1 memorial, a list of members of the church who had died.  Unfortunately it didn't say where the church was.  I have now found it thanks to your post and the London WW1 Memorial Site.  It's made my day, thanks!

The Common Room / Re: Transcribing recent records

Yes, but its one thing having the index online but not the whole register entry.  And these are the church records, not the GRO.

The Common Room / Transcribing recent records
« on: Wednesday 14 November 12 14:52 GMT (UK)  »
I do a bit of transcribing for a well known website.  The last batch I downloaded was entitled  'UK Derbyshire Church of England Parish Records 1538-1910'.  When it appeared it was marriage register entries for 1973-4.  Now I got married in 1973 but would not be happy if all the details were available to all.  I emailed the site and they said "the names will not be published until the privacy laws of Great Britain are met".  I would be interested to hear others' views on the subject and what is the legal situation now?

Census and Resource Discussion / Re: FindMyPast has newspaper archive

I have been trying the newspaper archives on FindMyPast and the pages downloaded were not the ones in the preview.  Good thing I have a subscription, could be expensive on pay as you go.

That's the effect she has on me too.  I just wish I knew who she was!

Thanks Jim, I was thinking about that time too.  Unfortunately it rules out my prime candidate.  Ah well.....

Just noticed the wedding ring too.  Is that artists licence or was it there really?
