Cheshire / Resting place of George Vincent
« on: Sunday 31 March 13 09:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi all
My Great Grandparents are both buried in St John the Baptist Aldford. They both died in 1930. I will be visiting the Chester area in April from the south of england and would like to find their resting place. My question is where can I find out if they have a Headstone and if so a plot number.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

My 2x Great Grandfather Charles Ridgers b 1812 a widower married on the 28 Feb 1852 Sarah Baker a minor born Silchester Hampshire
Charles Ridgers a farmer died 1st July 1873 at Fleet. His will was proved at Winchester by Sarah Ridgers of Broomhurst Farm the Widow the relict the sole Executrix.
After his death I can find no trace of Sarah in any further census, she does not appear to be with any of the children either.
Sarah Baker was christened 4 Aug 1833 in Sherfield on Loddon Hampshire her parents were George & Sarah
Did she remarry as she would have been about 40?
Any help appreciated

« on: Friday 08 March 13 14:39 GMT (UK)  »
I know that this car was registered between Nov 1925 & Mar 1926 in the LCC registration district.
I have searched sites of car badges but drawn a blank. Sorry about the quality of the photo but it came from a relative via e mail.

Hampshire & IOW Completed Lookup Requests / Brick wall for James Ridgers 1837-1919 *Completed*
« on: Thursday 28 February 13 08:56 GMT (UK)  »
I have hit a brick wall with my Great Grandfather James Ridgers born 1837 in Crondall Hampshire. He is the son of Charles Ridgers and Eliza Terry 1815-1851.
In the 1851 census he is with his parents in Crondall transcribed as Janes and by 1871 he is a wheelwright in Frimley Surrey. I have all the census records from 1871-1911 living in Farnborough but cannot find trace of him in 1861.
He did marry in October of that year Louisa Underwood.
Any help would be appreciated.

Technical Help / PDF file printing
« on: Friday 01 February 13 17:05 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all.
I have recently E mailed a PDF document to a friend and he says that he can view it but not print or do a screen shot of it. I have checked that it was set with no security and does allow printing. The document is of great historical importance to the Far East POW records.
Any thoughts please
