Latest Updates to the Website:

3rd March 2009

I've now added a news feed for any UK Genealogy news.

Also completed the uploading of the Pallot's Birth information for Owen, Owens, Croft, and Carey. You can find this under the My Family Tree page.

22nd February 2009

Completed conversions and additions of Kerry, Kilkenny, and Laois. Please let me know if there are any errors.

15th February 2009

Completed conversion of Dublin, Fermagh, and Galway. Please let me know if there are any errors.

12th February 2009

Added a page for Histon Marriages, you can find this under Useful Information link.

10th February 2009

I've had contact from another website owner, and it looks like the information I had on Donegal was lifted straight from their site. So, I have removed all of that for now, and placed a link to their excellent site instead, it's a lot better laid out than mine anyway :-(  If anyone else notices anything similar, then please let me know straight away.

8th February 2009

I've completed the swap over of County's Donagal, and Down. Please use the Contact form to let me know if there are any problems.

4th February 2009

I've now set up an Instant Messaging link, just below the menu. So, if I'm online you can ask me a question, and hopefully get an anser straight away.

23rd January 2009

I've managed to set up a sub site for the Irish information. This has proved a little problematic, mainly making sure all the links point to the right places, but I think I've got it sorted now. Please let me know if there are any bad links.

I've started moving across the Irish County pages, but please bear with me, it's slow progress.

21st January 2009

I have now moved over the Griffith's Valuations for County Clare. There is a seperate page for each letter of a surname. These pages are fairly small by today's standards, the biggest is about 1.4Mb.

Also completed the latest version of my family tree on web pages.

19^th January 2009

I am currently looking at re-writing the site in a package. Most of this site has been written in a mixture of Notepad, and MS Word. The problem with that is that it is extremely difficult to update it, every time I want to add an item throughout the site; I have to edit every single page.

If there are any requests for features, then please let me know and I will try to incorporate them.

17^th January 2009

I have started to produce a blog for those who might be interested. It will be a weekly summary of things I have done for the website, along with any other items of personal interest, or my ramblings.

I have had two reviews for my book, and they can be read at Never Without a Book, and Confessions of a Bibliophile

20^th December – Many apologies to those who have mailed me with a question recently. I have been very remiss in keeping this website up to date. I have been preoccupied with another project, and that was writing my first book. If you like dog stories, then you might like to preview the book here, and if you like it, please feel free to purchase a copy.

Wishing all my visitors a very happy Christmas. I will be back to the website in the New Year.

10^th August – Finally finished another update, this took some time to trasnscribe. Under Welsh Data you can now find all the marriages from Bangor Diocese, plus any where the groom or bride came from there. Note this is an 8Mb page and has over 5,000 marriage records on it, so may take a while to load.

5th June 2008 - Added family names Carey, and (O)Rourke to the 1841 census details

4th June 2008 - Added listings of family names for the 1841 Census. Covered so far are for all residing in Liverpool Owen (402 names), and Owens (796 names). These can be found under the "My Family Tree"  link.

4th June 2008 - Added this a few days ago. A short explanation of the Birth, Marriage, and Death (BMD) registers, this can be found under the new Research Info link.

25th May 2008 - Added a new section called Research Info. I will be adding pages giving tips, and help, for researching your Family Tree. I've started with the 1841 census for England, detailing what you can expect to find, plus listing all the missing parishes.

24th May 2008 - I'm afraid I've had to make changes to the "Message Board" so that only registered users can post. I'm spending too long each day deleting the spam. It's a shame that the few spoil it for the many.

24th May 2008 - Many thanks for all your support, we've now had over a 100,000 hits since the beginning of the year. Here's looking forward to the quarter of a million mark.

17th May 2008 - Lots of updates today. This one is a listing of all the residents on the 1841 Caernarvonshire census that are residing in Clynnog. This can be found under "Welsh Information"

17th May 2008 - Transcribed records from Pallot's Baptisms. Names covered so far are: Owens, Owen, Carey,  and Croft. You can find this under "My Family Tree".

17th May 2008 - Collated all the CAREY's and O'ROURKE's from Griffith's Valuations (1848 - 1864), over 1,200 individuals. This can be found under the Irish Data link.

13th May 2008 - I've started a surname listing for all Birth's, Marriages, Banns, and Burials for St. Andrew the Less of Cambridge. This covers all entries from the parish registers from 1599 to 1950, and also covers St. Paul, St. Philip, and St. Barnabas. I've uploaded a webpage covering surnames beginning with A so far, this will take some time as A is over 3,000 individuals. The pages can be found under the "My Family Tree" link.

6th May 2008 - Details from Boyd's Marriage Registers, all of my family names, and maybe some of yours too :-). You'll find this under "My Family Tree" link.

5th May 2008 - Finally got around to do a bit more work. I've created a new section for those looking for their Welsh Ancestors, you'll find it under "Welsh Information". I'm starting with a village in Canaervanshire called Clynnog Fawr, but I will be expanding this. The first section is all the marriages from 1757 to 1837 that were either at Clynnog Fawr, or the Groom came from there.
