I have not found any sponsorship etc. But what I have noticed is that the families that immigrated did much better than those who stayed behind. Not sure if this is a case of what does not kill you makes you stronger? I can find the remnants of my…

From looking at UK census returns, it was often the younger sons who took the chance to migrate, there not being enough "room" on the family farm for them, and the newspapers of the day carried adverts offering the…

Thank you for the lovely photos Christine. My Mum, who has just died, just loved Shire horses.  She was a Devonian and would have loved these photos.  She had shire horse ornaments, pictures and horse brasses everywhere.

@ Della,  The migrating farmers had some insight about the soil they were after to farm on? People, Food Producers, Government, spent time researching the areas of viable farm land in other accessible countries? A lure had…

I am a present day farmer in central Victoria Australia. I know very little of “old time” farming in the U.K. I joined the group hoping to get a feel for farming when my “Jones’s” leased a farm in Wexford 1800-1900 and…

Farming plays a big part in the roles of many of our ancestors, the history of this way of life is very interesting.

Hi Chris,
I'm looking at your George BOYCE b. 1806 who married Caroline PICKETT again to see if they link with my line. Have you discovered anything more about George in the last few years?. I'm pretty sure I've found him in 1841 census in For Posts with a William PICKETT and two other BOYCE males George & William who were carpenters.

Spelling, my thoughts on the subject

Thought I would mention this as I have found some instances where folks say the spelling of surnames and place names are not correct and can't be their ancestor. But when you go back in time and folk learnt to write they all wrote the words phonetically, i, e, o and y can all be transposed. Gibbins, Gibbons, Gybbons, Gebbens. etc. So keep an open mind and think about the local dialect, the speaker may have a cold, or a lisp!! In old wills and documents you will often find the same name with a… Continue
