Please Read This Disclaimer!
The information on these webpages is NOT a primary source. All the data
has been transcribed from fiche copies of original records and is naturally subject to human
error, both in the 21st century, and also in the century in which it was
initially recorded.
Whilst I won't knowingly publish anything which is incorrect, there is
always the possibility of wrong conclusions being derived from the records, eg
placement of people in incorrect family groupings.
Please contact Sue Osborne if
you find any information here that you believe is incorrect, or if you have
clarified some information with other sources.
I will update the site as quickly as is possible when new information is
communicated to me.
Other notes:
 | Century beginnings & ends: Whilst strictly speaking a new
century does not begin until the year xx01 (eg 1701, 1801, 1901 etc), for
clarity's sake I have not adhered strictly to this in every case.
|
 | The censuses, especially from 1851 onwards, improve the chances of being
able to put people into family groups, although sometimes relationships
given are impossibly incorrect - eg the term "son" when actually
the child was a "grandson".
