Aberdeenshire Completed Lookups / Simpson Conundrum
« on: Thursday 23 April 15 14:29 BST (UK)  »
Hi All

I would appear to be going round in circles and would appreciate some guidance on this problem.

I have a family on the 1851 census at Hillhead of Ardo

William Simpson        head  aged  34  Farm Lab   Born Methlick
Jessie Hog                 wife   aged  25                  Born Ellon
William Simpson        son    aged    5                  Born Methlick
Elizabeth Simpson     dau    aged    2                  Born Methlick
William  Simpson       son    aged    2 mths          Born Methlick

I have William Simpson marrying in 1893 aged  28 parents as above?

I have Jessie Hogg dying aged 75 in 1901 widow of William Simpson.

Any help with my conundrum would be most appreciated.
Yours Aye

World War Two / merchant seamans record
« on: Friday 17 April 15 10:43 BST (UK)  »
Hi all

Silly question time again.

I discovered yesterday that an uncle of mine served in the merchant navy during  WW2. I had a quick glimpse of his seamans book is there anyway from the details in the book to find out where he had been and when. I also saw that he had the Atlantic star and also the France and Germany star.

Hi All

I have an image at work from a painting of the gentleman named above and I was wondering if anyone was prepaired to have a go at doing it up for me.

The problem I have at the moment is that I do not have any software at work to reduce the file size
the file is approx 900kb and the only way I can move this file is by email. I have changed my profile so that any emails come to my work in box.

ever grateful for the help received from you experts.

Yours Aye
