The Common Room / Which website? Ancestry, Find My Past, Society Records?
« on: Friday 20 November 20 09:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hello everyone.
I wonder if I might ask some advice about  the level of my research and how to do it on various websites that offer search facilities.
I am researching my family in Hampshire off and on for about 10 years. I made it back in a 100% perfect line to the mid 1700's. There is some degree of uncertainty after that about which line follows which and I think from here that I am down to parish records?
I have a free trial with Ancestry, where I want to obtain more information on my my relations and where they were 1800 to modern day and this seems like a good website to subscribe to, although a bit expensive.
I also have a free trial to Find My Past. This has been ok but there seems to be some records missing that I get from other results (I also have Hampshire Genealogy Society Baptisms, Marriages and Burials CDs).
Am I on the right websites for what I need to achieve or are there others which are better for those 1650-1780 records? Or, as I think, this might be a Records Office visit or two!
Many thanks for your help!
Philip

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Noyce, Noyes, Nash, Naish name derivatives.
« on: Tuesday 17 November 20 17:47 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks garstonite!

I'm looking at Itchen Stoke, Bishops Sutton and East Meon.
My search to date has centred around Noyce, Noyes, Noise etc but if the variants of the name are relevant then I need to expand my search. There are lots more Naishes and that will make it more challenging!  I have seen a parish record which records Naish which I know should be Noyce which is another reason I ask.

Many thanks.

ps is Genanet a good website. It looks free?

Family History Beginners Board / Noyce, Noyes, Nash, Naish name derivatives.
« on: Monday 16 November 20 19:27 GMT (UK)  »
Hello everyone.
I started researching my family about ten years ago and got side-tracked but I decided to come back to it this year:)
I'm trying to link potential family members in Hampshire and I have a question.
Findmypast and my local genealogy group gives an option for name variants. I have picked up in the past that the names Noyce, Noyes, Noyse, Noise could have a variant of Naish or Nash.
I haven't used Naish or Nash in my research so far. Can anyone tell me if this is a true variant and if it is worth pursuing? The period that I'm looking at is 1720-1800
Many thanks
Philip

Hampshire & IOW Lookup Requests / Re: Lookup Request for 1970s Portsmouth
« on: Sunday 04 June 17 21:22 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for the reply. I don't think they are still alive but understand and appreciate the Rootschat policy 100%.
So I can still make enquiries out use of the site, is there a site which I can look at which might include Kelly's Directories or electoral role sites for the 1970s?

Many thanks for your help.

Hampshire & IOW Lookup Requests / Lookup Request for 1970s Portsmouth
« on: Wednesday 31 May 17 22:43 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone. I have a request if anyone can help please. I've been side tracked from my own family tree and I'm looking for details of B and J Clark (or Clarke) who lived in Portsmouth (Lyndhurst Road) about 1968 to about 1974. I'm looking for a marriage date or birth of any children. I think they moved from Lyndhurst Road in 1974 but i would be grateful to get an exact date and where they moved to which I think was somewhere in Cosham still in Portsmouth.

Many thanks for any help - it would be really appreciated.

P.

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Starting again after a while....
« on: Monday 21 November 16 09:00 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you both for your suggestions.
Are there online censuses available for after 1911 somewhere?
I'm doing a free trial with Ancestry since I first posted and I find that it's changed lots. One thing is that it seems so much easier - the hint links easily access other family trees and I have to be very careful that they contain the correct information. I far prefer researching myself and not relying on others trees but it's difficult to ignore them.
I'll try the FreeCEN and FreeREG next and see how I get on.
Thanks again.

Family History Beginners Board / Starting again after a while....
« on: Thursday 17 November 16 18:58 GMT (UK)  »
Hello everyone.
I did a lot of family history research some years ago and used Ancestry for a while as well as our local records office.
I've decided to start again over the winter months to give me s hobby and relax.
Has anyone got any tips please s out a good place to start again. For example, has much been added to Ancsstry since 2008 or are there cheaper or better alternatives?
Many thanks for your help.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Re: Rookery Farm, Ramsdean, Petersfield
« on: Thursday 25 February 10 22:01 GMT (UK)  »
you may have found this out by now; don't think it helps you but may be of interest. I think Rookery Farm is a private dwelling now but is opposite Orchard Farm at Ramsdean.
