Looking for any relations or ancestors relating to Anne Tyrer born in 1833 in Knowsley, Lancashire. and died in 1907. Anne married Edward Saggerson (no date available) Edward was born around 1833 ish and possibly died around either late 1800's or early to mid 1900's Anne and Edward would be my Great Great Grandparents. Any information would be appreciated.

Given that Yvonne posted in 2004, a lot of records, including much of what is now available on freebmd, simply wasn't available on line. so she may well have found difficulty in tracing a marriage at that time.

I still remember FreeBMD inching its way forward through the C19th.

OK....thanks for the 'heads up'

I wasn't doing FH back then, so I wasn't aware of the lack of bmd info

Would that also have applied in respect of LancsBMD?

No idea about Lancs BMD, because I didn't have family in that county.

However I started out about 2004/5 as an 'armchair' family historian, and there is SO much more available online nowadays than there was back then, and more being added all the time.

I spent a fortune as the freebmd progressed through the C19th, and eventually the early C20th, and as various censuses became available online, sorting out my family in London, working out who was in my direct line and who were sibling lines. Certs were 'only' £7 back then, so every payday I'd treat myself to 3 of them.

Also remember ordering microfiche copies of parish records that weren't transcribed online, then struggling to read them on a microfiche reader becuase they were such poor quality.

Used to toddle down to the central library to access the IGI in card form, and remmeber how 'the Mormon site' that developed into Familysearch first went live and immediately crashed as it was so swamped (that may have been a bit earlier, but it was one of the things that alerted me to the possibility of being able to trace family history online).

Today I could sit down with the LMA records and census records on Ancestry and polish all that research off in an afternoon...

End of trip down memory lane.

Yes Kucinta , I remember those pre computer days.
Spent years of my life at the library and records office pouring over microfiche and film.
But I must admit that although online data is much easier it doesn't replace the thrill of finding the ACTUAL entries in the parish register books and being able to touch your ancestors signature.

For reasons I won't go into, I'm not really able to travel far, so for me it was a mixture of the early information that was on computer, and ordering copies of records on microfiche etc because i couldn't get to the records office to access the actual material.

I remember paying Northants R O to transcribe my 5 x great grandfather's will for me (pre scanning days and the seal might get damaged by photocopying) - which I've shared with others, and still see popping up on all sorts of Ancestry trees to this day, as its been passed on to 'cousins' I've never even heard of.

I am really pleased more and more scans of original sources are available online, so that one no longer has to rely on the skills of attention level of the transcriber; the IGI once turned my 4 x great grandfather Thomas into a girl named Susannah - so many 'family' still have her in our tree, though she belonged to another family altogether. The fiche copy of the register showed the entries were very sloped on the page, and the transcriber had amalgamated two records, attaching Sarah to my 4 x great grandparents, instead of her own parents.

We owe a lot to volunteers who did/do transcribing for various sites/bodies, such as FreeBMD etc, despite my previous comment about liking to see the original source or a scan of it :-D
