Have just had a look and you are right. Actually, it's very sad really. The men in particular are really short, I suppose reflecting their poor nutrition as they grew up. And there are a lot of women aren't there?

Have you noticed how many of them has cut scars on their inner forearms? Failed suicides?

Also, there's a Minnie Osborne who could be Ozzie's grandmother!!!!

Thanks so much! Easy peasy once it was explained.
(Just in case anyone else has a look, the link on the 2nd page is "View all Ancestry Titles" though!).

Jan,

I get to it via the full list of databases (called the Card Index). If you don't have that shown on the front page, then go to the "View All New Records", then "View All Ancestry Records" (on the right).
Once there, change the sort order to a date option either "Date Added" or "Date Updated" and it will be about halfway down.

Here is the direct link if you need it:

Any body seen the news today of 1900 drunken blacklist for Birmingham? It says its gone online today with a wealth of information ie address, employment, what pubs they were barred from etc.. and photo.
I would be interested in taking a look at this. Anyone know which website it is on?

Thankyou
