hi sal
-
im going to wakefield on thursday, if the weather ok.
-
i found that the church ones i couldnt see are stored in the archives of deeds office in wakefield.
-
so fingers crossed,i will find the missing peice.
-
on the way to the cyber, im going to go to the libray here, to get the ref numbers i need for the 1700 to 1800 for the the halifax, tomonden, lunden sowerby, and any others within the halifax range, that go back to at least 1780.s

hi sal

setting off in an hour, jim xxx

Hi jim,sorry i was so busy yesterday..it was a bad time !!!I think that's the third morning you've caught me when it's been chaos !!Good luck,chat later.take care!!!

hi sal
-
as per the call tonight,(thurseday)
-
im going to try another tack,
-
on the premise that she wasnt born in the halifax area. im going to check all the areas in yorkshire, from what i saw in the parish records, not many areas went back to the middle 1700,s
-
i,ll check each in the library, then if any are to poor to see,tomz, i will go to wakefield monday or tuesday.
-
if it was 1880, age 80, then logic is there must be a record on baptism( if any) in the parish records, outside halifax, 1786.

hi Jim,she was born in 1786 and died in 1866,if my memory serves me well!!(that's not often either)I haven't got the records handy,but i'll get billy to get them out for me as soon as we have a minute,AND I'LL CHECK!!!

hi sal
-
if the weather clears up, im going to the library later today.
-
and see how many records of the churches, in and around halifax, bfd, and so on are going back to 1700,s.
-
when i was doing the braithwaite one a while back, there wasnt many if i remember well, myself lol.
-
its good to get back to something i like to do, its been over a year, but you know what they say,
-
its like riding a bike, once you learn, you never forget lol jim xx

Hi Jim,don't kniw if it'll help,but found a great site....curiousfox....that has irish records!!You can register as a non paying member,might be worth a try!!!Just thought of the Joe you were looking for.

hi sal
-
i,ll take a look next time i can get to the cyber
-
last night, my back decided to ache, the change of weather.
-
ive just made egg and chips, and standing at the cooker was murder, wosst was getting on the sofa, i aint getting up again for a few hours lol jim xxx

Hope you're feeling beter JimI understand about the pain when trying to stand for even a few minutes.Because i have little balance i tense my legs and body if i have to stand,and after a matter of seconds my back is so painful,and i have to sit down.I can't stand long enough to fry an egg!!!!

hi sal
-
sorry late replying, the backs still giving me a few twinges.
-
usually when it plays up, its back to normal(if you can call it that lol)but this time its taking longer to settle down.
-
could be that with me getting older, the bones are weaker, so hopefully in a day or two it will be back to the usual mild ache.
