I have found a few interesting things on this site.

Finding lots of snippets of interest, Susan. I expect others are still searching!

And!......out of 98 views has anyone else found anything of interest apart from the Heading of this thread ? :-D

I found this so interesting. thanks for putting the link on here Susan.

yes GL....I too found patents pending for two of my ancestors.......I also found documents that explained why one side of the family were factory owners one minute then in the poor house the next.....there are also probate records...up to date as well as bygone.....war stuff.....name changes.......very interesting and a lot of it up to date too.

The Belfast Gazette and Edinburgh Gazette are also on the same site.

Thank you for the link Susan
I didn't enter a town, but the name of an estate in Renfrewshire
I got a page from 1851 about the sequestration of the estate.

This explains how my rellie became the next owner!
His name came up on another search, relating to a patent.

I think I'll make more use of this site :-D :-D :-D

Got in there then. Interesting, I only looked at a few pages so will go back to it later. Thanks for that Susan. :-)

I wasn't on the IPad. I'll have another go then.

I got the error message too....must be the iPad.....seems to be working now though.

Not sure what your instruction means susan wiv but when I went into the Gazette I got the following mesage:

Anyway, do you mean enter village etc in the Gazette, or on here and do you mean village where we live or where we came from? :-D :-D :-D
sorry I know I am a bit dense sometimes but my excuse is that it is hot!!!

Enter the name of your village or town and tell me what a surprise it has been :-D
