Find Ancestors

Having researched the wrong Charlotte Roberts .I am now in possession of marriage cert of her parents Thomas =Sarah Carter 1869
charlottes birth cert 1877
and copy of 1891 census for this family I'd be happy to pass them on.

You could enter the details on bmdshare

Alisoun, do you have a previous thread on this?

Yes:

Sorry, I just assumed you would get it from Google.

Here's the link ...

You could also add the details of the certificates as a postem to the relevant index entry at FreeBMD. Might either save someone else the cost of a cert, or let them know they're planning to buy the right one.

I think it's worth doing with all the certs we get, as they are so expensive now. :-)

Marie celeste ;my previous thread was requesting info for what turned out to be the wrong Charlotte roberts ,I just want to donate the certificates now .

Kucinta + Mike sorry I'm not very google trained but I'll try that

It would be nice to give something back after all help I 've had.
Thanks all

Hi Alisoun

When you go to FreeBMD

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/

Look up the event - birth, marriage, whatever.

eg

Births Jun 1850 (>99%)
Eayres Louisa Sarah Ann Shoreditch 2 420

To the right of '420' will be an 'info' button and a pair of spectacles. Click on either of those, and the opportunity to 'add a postem' will come up, with an explanation of what one is.

You only have 250 characters, but that's usually enough to get the key information down.

Thanks for thinking of others. :-)

Kucinta : thanks for walking me through that step by step I managed to add a postem for the marriage certificate would never have managed without your instructions and couldn't do it a 2nd time must have been too tired .
It's the first time I've used that site ;it seems like you have to know all the information before you search .

Oh dear,my example may have put you off as I gave the actual ref to show where the info icon and spectacles were. :-(

If you had actually been searching for Louisa Eayres, you could have just put in her names, and dates between which to search, to see what came up as a possibility for her.

Obviously the more information you have, the easier it is to find the event you're looking for, but it's a very useful tool - especially when kind people like you take the time to add postems.

The great thing about FreeBmd is that it is free.

No i realised you'd given an example it wasn't at all confusing your explanation was spot on .and yes it's great that its free the more I use it the more i'll get used to it .I'll have another quick play around with other names tonight .
