Census and Resource Discussion / Re: 1939 Register
« on: Monday 09 December 19 23:06 GMT (UK)  »
    Have often wondered how the unblocking worked, so very interesting.    I have only just learned this morning that one of our friends in our street during the War years, died back in September 1998 - from his younger brother.  The family migrated to Melbourne in 1949 so that will be why he is still blocked.

    On the other hand, I was in touch up until December 2010, with another friend of that era who lived next door but one from Peter who died in 1998, and his name appears in the 1939 registration.  So I guess that means that Alan has gone too!   Alan did tell me that he was still living in the same house after all of those years.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: More mystery words...

   I have tried in the past to study Secretariat Hand especially the Scottish variations.   Eventually you just get accustomed to it.

    I found a Guide and Tutorial which I think was from www.sog.org  but it doesn't come up there now.   Fortunately I copied both and could send those pdf pages if anyone wants to study it - just PM me.

    Alternatively there is a bodleian page which shows how some letters were written - http://rycote.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/Palaeography-Guide-alphabet

  The 1816 Rothbury Bible Census

Thropton:
Page 83.   Ann TURNBULL aged seventy-four is married to George TURNBULL, the Butcher. She goes to the Meeting though she says she has an aversion to the Church but at her age it is too far. She has one Testament and two Bibles, one of which one met a most extraordinary adventure. Her Husband, who is since dead, had taken a farm at Bornowtown but scarcely had they settled themselves in their new abode before a strange persecution was commenced by some invisible elf who broke all their things and threw about all their furniture in their presence, before their eyes, in open daylight without any apparent cause. the fame of this marvellous mystery was soon noised abroad and multitudes flocked to Bornowtown to witness the pranks of their mischevous eprite, among a

Page 84.   Presbyterian Minister who observing a Bible upon on of the shelves asked weather the demon had ever made free with that book. the old woman answered that she believed it was the only thing in the house which never had been moved. She had scarcely done speaking when she beheld the Bible leave its shelf and with and even motion throw itself at the Ministers feet, half across the room. She ran to catch it in its passage but was too late. The chains were often dropped upon her from the air, but though everything that was -----?------- was broken, she herself was never hurt. She suspected infernal agency but feared no harm to herself, which she was confident would not be permitted by the Govenor of the Universe, but the immediate agent was supposed to be the last tenant of the farm who was then in the house and the persecution ceased at his departure.

What are we supposed to conclude from all of this hooey?  If DWD = TWT, then ipso facto, the bible must be true?

    There is a lot of truth in the Bible - mainly in 1 Kings and Chronicles - but only when we look at Egypt - it was all there.    Just study a bit of Ancient Egyptian and you will see.    I have discovered why so many Biblical errors and bad verses are wrong - mainly mistranslations from Egyptian such as Luke 14:26 which uses the Greek word Miseo for hate, whereas the original in Egyptian MSW - really meant 'Children'.   Then Mark 8:33 - this is a pun on the fact that 'Satan' in Egyptian had 3 different meanings and one was 'Rock'.

 There is too the Legend of Scota who is said to have gone from Egypt to Ireland with a number of followers and so begun the Scots Clan.     There are two modern books about Scota both based on the Schoticron of the Middle Ages.    However if this is so then it has to be a God name which all Egyptians had - and therefore could only be 'SKHETY' - The Goddes of the Common People, lands and Marshes.

  I should add that the spelling of one of the Kings in the Irish Legend is exactly the same as spelled out in the Cartouche of the Egyptian King.   AND it has the IU prefix god name.

   It isn't just the Ferriby boats on their own that tell us that the Egyptians invaded the Isles in the Bronze Age - there are the skeletal remains in Ireland - dolichocephalous skull which is Mediterranean - long skull and wearing Egyptian faience jewellery.  Then the Gold Shoulder Cape found at Mold in North Wales - exactly the same as one worn by Ymn Twt Ankh.    Then there are the legends in Ireland about the Duat (Egyptian Tuat - same meaning an underworld) and Dedanaan (Egyptian Tatanen - both Gods).  plus the legend in Ireland which names Kings Brian (Egyptian Baion aka Ibram), Har, Abel and Kian (again Egyptian Kings of the 14th/15th Dynasty).    But mainly so many Irish men who look pure Egyptian - nasal and eye features.

According to this the first dating was wrong and one of the boats is at least 4000 years old.
