Anyone looked at the Probate Register now it is up and running again? I’m not impressed.

« on: Monday 03 May 21 18:21 BST (UK) »
I don’t know if this has already been covered.
Tomorrow is the start of the new marriage registration.

The Lighter Side / Find a Grave corrections.
« on: Tuesday 19 February 19 17:33 GMT (UK) »
Very impressed with the speed of correction.
This morning I sent in a correction to an incorrectly transcribed surname, two hours later I received an email confirming it had been accepted, a quick check showed the change had already been made.
If only it was as easy on certain other websites.

Essex / A Tragic birth
« on: Thursday 06 April 17 20:48 BST (UK) »
(All Saints Colchester
On the 31 January 1697 was born to Sam Gonner a female child in the parish of St Peters Colchester, with one head but three distinct tongues, four arms, hands and shoulders, four legs, thighs and feet, two bodies joined together at the neck, and head standing with its face between the two bodies above the shoulders. Each body had one breast, back and all parts proportional to a female child below the neck. It had two crowns separated behind on the head, with very thick curled hair. It lived about half an hour and was afterwards carried up to London for a sight.)
This entry of what appears to have been conjoined twins was in the Parish Records.

The Common Room / FreeReg and email
« on: Thursday 14 January 16 11:11 GMT (UK) »
I would be interested in the opinion of others, as we all do our best to avoid spamming.
Having reported a transcription error to FreeReg, the acknowledgement and subsequent notification that the correction was made, (very quickly I must say) were both copied to numerous other people. I have now sent a comment that the Blind Copy should be used. What do Chatters think?

The Lighter Side / A DESERTED WIFE
« on: Monday 14 April 14 17:25 BST (UK) »
The question often arises about remarriage when a spouse disappears, I thought this entry I came across in Essex may be of interest.
