Hello Patricia.............a tip for the site is once you have found a christening for a child, scroll down the page and click on any reference number in blue, it will start with C followed by some numbers.

Enter the fathers christian and surname only in the search box, along with the county and you should then get the siblings who were christened at the same church.

I learnt something from Davina. I hadn't used the IGI site before.

Made me cry it did.
I watched it this morning sat in my nightie on bbc iplayer.Didn't know we had iplayer til this morning! LOL
Tricia

Oh yes, forgot about the repeats Maggie :)

It's repeated on Tuesday on BBC 2 at 7pm

Have you checked BBC iplayer on pc ShelleyRose ? you may be able to catch it on there .... good luck :)

I have often wondered that ... they seem to concentrate on one side of a relationship on a lot of shows !

Get to the docs Muffy ! lol

I wanted them to go further back on her French side.
I know her gg grandfather was a republican - therefore gave up his religion etc, but would have loved to have known if he was from Jewish ancestry.

Both are as important to me but I must admit my interest is my dads side..

Funny you should say that Lynda because I just told OH off for focussing solely on his male lines.

Seeing as he has two daughters I'd say that sort of attitude isn't in HIS best interests :0)

It's still not good Ann tbh .....but I feel a bit of a fraud because I triggered it off again by being a bit............well......drunk...... and falling off a table which I was dancing on lol.

It's self inflicted even though there is an underlying condition lol.

It was one of the better shows tonight ... and obviously Davina is very proud of her ancestors :)


BTW Muffy, how is the trapped nerve, and have you been to the docs yet ?

I enjoyed that, I knew a little about the Dreyfus case, Certainly a gt grandfather to be proud of. There is an article on

fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Célestin_Hennion

Well........we're not worthy lol

Good for her........Probable English royalty and a very principalled French Policeman......

I'm just as proud of my shoemakers and wheelwrights but to have that much info on her ancestors........wow......that would take my breath away.

Thought she came across very well........she obviously didn't have an easy early life.xx

She should be entitled to free admission to Windsor Castle!

She certainly does!

Davina has connections!

It is good!!! an interesting one.

I've got to catch up tomorrow on BBC iPlayer cos himself has the remote grrrr
