Ev, Tracey has put up these signatures on the Deciphering and Recognition Help Board www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,412958.0.html

Concesus seems to be that they are the same signatures  :)

Hi all
 :) :) :) :)

Woweeee.
It looks like the family from Cookney is mine !! My William was definately in the NE of England in 1901.
Ev - in the first email I sent I mentioned that I was going to try to get the signatures onto the other board, but I forgot on the second one. Sorry if I wasted your time.

I am going to go back and check all my info again, even though I`m sure it`s right.

To all of you, and especially to Ev, a big, big big thank you.
I wanted to find out as much info as I could, as it`s my Dad`s 70th Birthday soon and I hoped to get everything printed out and give it to him as a present.

Kindest regards

Hi Ev,  ;D

I did wonder if there was a connection with the Robertsons. I will look into that further !!

I got William Senior`s Inventory from SP.  Have a look at this signature and tell me what you think.

I hadn`t seen the 1851 census bit  :)

And a belated thank you to Monica for finding the 1901 for the Nigg Milnes, proving that this particular William isn`t mine.  ;D

Hi the Nigg William Milne is actually my family tree. He was born in 1830 and had a twin sister named Helen. I'm in the process of following other family members so any in fo would be great. William was actually a brother of my great great grandfather he was the only one I could follow so far.

Hi Jeannie,

I haven`t had my internet connection for the last 6 days so am a bit behind  ::)

When I was looking into my WM, I couldn`t decide between the Cookney William and the Nigg one, so I bought a few things on SP for both.

I will pm you. I think you have to have 3 posts to reply to a pm though.

Kindest regards

Hi Elizabeth   None of these names look familar to me. I haven't done brothers and sister line though so I'm not positive. I've only just begun to go down that road.
   Good Luck  Maybe Tracey has a connection.

    Take Care Jeannie
