Confused!!!
« on: Saturday 24 February 07 18:26 GMT (UK) »
 ??? ???

I have been looking under Gloucestershire for Todenham, But i know alot of the people on the census's for Todenham are registered at Shipston on Stroud.

So my question is where is Shipston on Stroud Gloucestershire or Warwickshire??

WHERE IS TODENHAM????? ??? ?

Thanks Tracy

You do get some problems with borders!

Todenham, Gloucestershire

http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/GLS/Todenham/index.html

Often towns register in the neighbouring county - very confusing!

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

HI Arranroots

I think i may have unwittingly broken a forum rule in my first post, If i have im really, really, sorry!!

I have included alot of details about people im searching for instead of being part of the surname of interest page should i start one of my own.

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,138635.0.html

I have really hit a brick wall and could do with as much help as possible.

My biggest hurdle seems to be the 1901 census. Every name i enter comes back no match, i just dont know what im doing wrong!!

Tracy

I will have a look at that post for you.

I should start another thread for each family, but only one board at a time - if you post lots there can be some confusion!  :)

So, for example, ask for family X in 1901 and wait - Rootschatters will probably go back as far as can be done quite quickly.

Don;t worry about mistakes - we all have to learn!
