There are home printers on the market that print 12x12, but they are expensive, so I haven't looked into one. Another thing you can do is check with your local photo shop. Many of them print 12x12. I know that Costco does as well if you have…
I certainly could be wrong, but my guess is that if you do your pages in word you will be redoing them in Elements down the road! LOL! I do use word a lot to compose my journaling, etc. so the two go hand in hand (sort of)
Hey Marcia! Small world, eh? You guys, Marcia is the Queen of heritage scrapping....or any scrapping for that matter. She explained digital scrapbooking very well. You can do a scrap page in word, but you won't have much control over the…
Hi there. I have both Custers and Robinsons in my family tree. My Grandmother was a Robinson, and my Grandfather was a Custer. My Robinsons go back to John Robinson, (no date of birth, but mid to late 1700's) in County Donegal, Ireland. Most of…
Thank you for your exhaustive search Gene. We have company today so I can't poke around, but will get back with you on all of the information that I do have
Hi Mary:
I tried to post a couple of things last night, but in the process of adding a permalink, I lost that material. Here’s a partial reconstruction. I still have to reconstruct the marriage notes, some location data and some items I found…

No, none at all. I've searched the Copmanthorpe Parish Registry and there is no mention of him, other than as father, so I am assuming that he was born in a different Parish? And yes, the numbers in brackets are source notations that I forgot…
Hi Mary Shawnee,
Thank you!
From the array of children's marriage, death or burial records you've located, is there no mention of where the father was born?
Do the notations [1], [2], [3], etc. refer to sources? --GJ
Thanks for asking this question Sandra. I was thinking of breaking my database into two trees also, but this discussion has encouraged me to keep just one main tree.
Richard Exelby, Yorkshire, England
As requested, here is the FGS for Richard Exelby. Almost all of these sources are through the Copmanthorpe Parish Registry, St Giles and St. Mary Bishophill records. Richard's date of birth is calculated from…
Hi Mary:
Welcome. If you are trying to connect your Richard to an earlier line, hope you'll help us by posting a family group sheet that includes detailed information about his children and both of his spouses.
Do you have a good form for a…
Sandra, I have a saved copy of the original census. New here and not seeing an email button, but I will gladly send it if you can give me your email address
