Wasn't Diana Dors born a Fluck?

You are correct, but I did have to look it up.

Nevertheless I had not expected to find this ancestor buried in Maryland, but she followed a couple of her sons from the Forest of Dean to Maryland.  They arrived just in time for the civil war which may or may not explain why her granddaughter emigrated to the Antipodes instead.

This link used to work for me but doesn't any longer - it was a transcription.

Would anyone know where these records could be found now please?

At times I like the precision of FindMyPast very much, and how you don't get so many irrelevant hits. 

But the searches seem a little odd sometimes. 

I tried it today with a marriage in Westminster that I know took place in 1834 and is on FindMyPast (as I've looked at it before).  It only came up in the search when I chose the Westminster record set to search.  If I didn't select Westminster marriages and just searched across all records sets for the bride or groom it didn't come up.

Thanks Lu - that's great.

For some reason I hadn't noticed your message come in.   I hope you have shaken off your cold and are feeling better.

Clearly she is not the wrong age to be the Catherine Thomson from Liberton,Scotland / Pine Hill, Dunedin, New Zealand, so the informant at her death was mistaken, but it also makes her the right age to be the Australian-born daughter of John Benson and Catherine Ryan.

I really appreciate your help.

I don't think it includes Leeds or Wakefield - I've been looking to see whether they have records I already have from Ancestry.
