Since I found the marriage of my great x 6 grandparents on the newly uploaded Ancestry London PRs a couple of weeks ago, I've been able to trace another six generations back on that line. Doddle:)))) |

I've had a lot of success with OH's London lot. I already had a 3 x great grandfather but now have his 3 x great grandmother. Then I found siblings and spouses. I went back two more generations. Got on the old London maps site and found where they lived - very posh. Found pictures of the churches and the Bermondsey and Rotherhithe docks. It's been great:-)) |

you can have a bash at my lot if its that easy :) One tree Ive been quite succesful on over the years, another Ive only managed to go back three generations and a step brother I stop at his father - bang dead ends - I wonder if he used a false name! |

I've found a few burials, Uggs. I just love looking at the images. I get lost looking at the others on the page. |

I hate finding the deaths of little ones. One family lost 3 children in 5 years. I know they had 4 more children but I can't believe they didn't grieve for the lost ones. |

It is when you can find things......I have a family that are on all the census but i can't find births for any of the 5 children so therefore can't find a marriage for the parents |

Sue, on one of my lines, my 3 x gt grandparents had only 4 of their 13 children survive to adulthood.... all of the others died before their third birhdays, some as infants... they had a memorial stone built at the church in the village.... it is my hope to go there, soon, to see it for myself. It is in the church in Morthoe, Devon. I know they were devastated by each loss. |

Julie, neither my great grandfather nor any of his siblings were registered but I did manage to trace their marriage eventually, with a lot of effort;) |
