Fantastic Cathy!!  congratulations!!

You know, it is of no use to me whatsoever, but now I know it was worth a little "cutting and pasting".  thanks for the feedback.  ;)

How frustrating: none of my family members are showing up, and I know they're there (have the images to prove)! Funny that I had no trouble finding them in the same database when I had a subscription some years ago. I'm disappointed, as I have unearthed some new names and was eager to check them.
Northumberland: Cuthbertson, Emery, Fenwick, Middlemass, Scott, Shanks

Durham: Young

I often find that names have been transcribed a bit haphazardly in these online indexes. It's too late now but I try to search for names using soundex, wild cards, misspellings etc.
Surname interests:
Devon: Barry, Beer, Couch, Fice, Treble, Stanton
Lincolnshire: Allman, Selby
London (Greater): Stanton/Standen, Archer
Hampshire: Allman, Letty, Rex, Collins, Naish, Newell, Stewart
West Yorkshire: Elliott and Dawson - Campsall, Kirk Smeaton and Womersley; Firth, Tillison/Tillotson and Willans - Wakefield and surroundings
Wiltshire: Allman
Shropshire/Worcestershire: Baines
