Can't blame her meself!



Bet your little heart went pitterpat when this thread came to the top of the board again......lol

Havent you gone out yet???.....You will miss the best seats...Go away Baggage....

Beginning to think you are stalking me...!

You should be so lucky..hu!

No not avoiding anyone, just a laptop malfunction which a nice young man has now fixed for me.
It seems Diane has made a good job of hiding. Will she ever be found.
I bet she changed her name and was really Jane Smith

Have a good holiday Evelyn

What about Leslie Diane Smith or Doe or something very scots

Not trying to wind you up FBG - keeping the thread up on the screen

Nudge

So I can find it again .

Kathy

Interesting....Maybe.

Name: Barabel Macleod
Death Registration Month/Year: 1923
Age at death (estimated): 25
Registration district: Penzance
Inferred County: Cornwall
Volume: 5c
Page: 270

Barabel was born in 1898...Only the one child of that name around that time....This death is a match for her...And I have never been able to trace a marriage for her...Or a death on SP..

Edits.......I have sent for it ,prob another waste of money...But you never know...

Thank you Viv you are a true friend
Love
Evelyn X

Barabel/Barabell means .....Stranger ......in Gaelic

Just for interest....;)

Evelyn

Have you ever heard the name "Bolitho"?
Probably not,and Im just going down another dead end...

Have a good time in France

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Arrived in France last night, all is well.
No Viv I have never heard the name Bolitho, thats a new one on me, why do you ask?
Hugs for IshbelX

Not sure yet,need to see Barabels death cert first.(if indeed it is her)...And only a wild wild theory that I am looking at.....

No I dont think Barabel is her mother as she was too young.

Please would you tell me again your mothers exact date of birth?

Ishbel, Bethany and Flora are sunny bathing on the rug I put out for them every sunny day...The trollops dont like lying on the concrete on the yard...;)

Do you have any Cornish connections Evelyn, as that's where the name comes from?


I recognised it straight away as my OH has read all the Bolitho novels by Douglas Reeman.





Don't blame Ishbel and co for not wanting to lie on the concrete to sunbathe.......would you???


Mind you, at your age you shouldn't be out in the sun Fans. Not good fer yer skin!


ooops. Too late!



~~~~~~~hello Evelyn :))

No I do not think Evelyns mother is a Bolitho from Cornwall...But I think that may be where Barabel was working/staying when she died......We will see what we will see.

And Mr Bolitho was a BANKER and JP and he married...Wait for it ....A Macleod from Ross-shire.....;P
Invergordon Castle to be exact...
Who had a well known brother ..A Captain in the Cameroon lot....Not called Robert though....His name was Roderick....And he died in 1931 in London...
Very wealthy families the Bolitho;s and this clan of Macleods....So no chance of Ev being related really is there???

But I have no doubt I am on a wild goose chase for her again???

But Dianes exact date of birth would be so good to be told again as what with all these pills addling what little brain I have I want it to be iscribed on them again...

Now push orf Mrs Cx Parker...

Diane was born 1906 I do not know the exact date, but she said her birthday was in June, she seemed to change the date to suit the occasion.
Maybe she had come from money as she had a private income up until she was married.
I dont know of any Cornish connections she never mentioned any.
Viv have you got a photo of the sunbathers?

As regards Roderick, I have a brother Rodney,
I also have a brother whose second name is Leslie, my 3rd brother is Robert

No photo,not very good at them,but will try to take some tomorrow...I have written a note to myself to try and remember..;)

Will have to wait for film to finish and develop though as my digi camera takes rubbish pics so I dont use it anymore..

Wow something I can do better than you,I now feel 10ft tall. I can take some good photos with my digital camera. Just a shame I am no good at research, I thank heavens each day for my dear friend Viv X

Just hope it's a photo of Ishbel you received Evelyn and not one of........arghhhhh! Perish the thought!

Why can't you take one on your phone and send it immediately?


Mind you Evelyn, Viv probably has one of those phones that you have to wind up!!!

Oh Cynthia you are naughty X
