THERE'S NO ONE TO SEARCH, EVERYONE'S DONE, WISHING THERE WAS MORE,AS I FOUND IT FUN. PEOPLE MAY THINK IM STUPID OR MAD, BECAUSE I LIKE SEARCHING, THEY CALL ME SAD.

I know the feeling ! I get like that at work sometimes, so in the coffee breaks I sometimes look up stuff from "can anyone help ..." type queries. BTW, on my own family tree, I have stopped trying to look up people and I am now writing up what I've found out in book-form (Thinks: christmas presents for rellies ???). Would that be something for you, to cure your boredom ???

I wish that I could say that maybe one day when they stop hidding. Maybe they came from Mars that would explain it.

Angela, how do you fancy transcribing????? i transcribe for Free BMD & Free CEN, you can do as much or as little as you want, and i find it a good way of filling all the gaps between researching when you're stuck for a bit......... or a long time !! Jane

Angela, If you are really desparate for seaching you could always look for my dad's 2 older sisters. I have him, 1 older sister and a baby brother that died. Trouble is I 'm not sure of names/places but they were born in between 1904-1907. If you fancy the challange let me know and I'll give you the details. Regards Viv LOL :-)

Hi Angela Don't lknow if you can help but I have gg grandad William Gibson and wife on 1881 living in Brighouse. William Gibson and Jane his wife (sorry haven't found out her maiden name yet) are both stated to have been born in Borrowbridge Lancashire (I wonder if it's boroughbridge). William was born in 1842 age 39 in 1881, Jane was older born in 1837 age 44 in 1881. They went on to have quite a large family when they moved to Brighouse Yorkshire but they did have an elder daughter Margaret age 22 in 1881 (1859). I wondered if you could find them anywhere on anything earlier. I realise Gibson is a bit like Smith to find. Any help you could give would be great. Thanks a lot. Jackie
