NUDGE - to say a big thankyou

That is them!!! Harry and Ernest Have two photos, that I found after my Mum died, so didn't have anone to ask regarding which side of the family they from ( Mum or Dads) and on th back one says Uncle Ernest and the other says love from Harry So know I know who they are!! ah - Thankyou

Other entry... Fellows Harry Rowbotham Ecclesall Bierlow.9c 681 Birth 3 1916 Only William in Sheffield at right time.... Fellows William L Pascoe Sheffield.9c 1217 Birth 4 1913 Ahh.... Fellowes William Rowbotham Ecclesall Bierlow.9c 806 Birth 2 1914 Spelt wrong! You can use % as a wild card to find the wrong ones.

Second entry from Family Rellies: 1919 Q2 Fellows, Ernest. Mother's name Rowbotham, Ecclesall B District 9c 519 Merry

Doing a search on FR for Q3 1911-1920 for Fellows with Rowbotham, reveals two births. One is your 1914 one, the other should be a sibling and prob the only sibling born after 1911Q3. There's no point in using FR for other siblings as they will be on FreeBMD and can't be picked out without the mums name to help you................... Will look to see who that one sibling is.......(aft 1911) Merry

Hi I think it cost 2 units to see the search results - which gives year and quarter - and another unit to see the image cheers

You can't see the year unless you view the index, which costs the units. The Vol and Page no are shown on the index, so it doesn't work out cheaper (unless of course you trawl Ancestry)

Another question - apologies if it's daft,had a ;long day shopping with kids - Wouldn't it work out cheaper and save on units to get the actual vol and page number from family relatives and then view it on Ancestry? Entered just the surname and the area and it brought up 3 pages, grandfather born 21st March 1914 in Sheffield William Fellows, was trying to find his siblings born after 1901 and knew mothers maiden name was Rowbotham. Might have found one brother - Ernest born it says 1989, but he wasn;t on the 1901 census with the family, so thats thrown me a bit

Hi That site only works if you enter one first name Cheers

You need the viewer to see the images... https://www.familyrelatives.org/treequest/jsp/customer/pre_lizardtech_djvu.htm When was your grandad born?

Nope not loaded that! No luck finding them with out the maiden name as that is all I have to go on and the area where they were born My grandad isn't showing and I have his original cert showing where and the date but he isn't on there!!

Mothers maiden name isnt on the indexes before the 3rd qtr of 1911. If it isnt on the indexes it cant be shown on the site. Margaret

Have you downloaded the DJVU viewer?

Right got my 60 units and found what I need but it doesn't show mothers maiden name and when I click view the image nothing comes up? What am I doing wrong? Help

Been shopping with my two today - 2 pair of trainers, an x box game and a flimsy t-shirt for a 14 year old girl is dearer than my hobby Joanne

I think the minimum number of units can be retained for 90 days (check that!!) So if you can make them last that long and only use them when it will save time, it's really cheap! Took my kids to the cinema yesterday and was horrified at the cost!! This hobby is MUCH less expensive than I thought!! Merry

You buy units - £6 for 60 units.

Thanks Is it a quarterly payment like ancestry or a case of buying units the same as 1837?

It is worth it for 1866-1920 as it is fully(ish) transcribed, otherwise you're better off with Ancestry.

Already a member of Ancestry but can't find the info that I need going backwards and forwards especially looking for children born after 1901 and have no set dates to go on. How much help would family relatives be - or would it be the same as trawling through BMD on ancestry Joanne
