| Dec 20, 2012 at 17:48 | comment | added | user104 | @ACProctor (and anyone else that's interested) I've set up a chat at chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/6808/… to discuss this. | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 17:06 | comment | added | user104 | @ACProctor, incidentally in the two examples where I've done exhaustive searches/cross-checks in both set of indices the matches have been very good (here and in North Wales). I've read Mike Foster's excellent books so suspect I've just been lucky. | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 17:04 | comment | added | user104 | @ACProctor There's actually a very good match for the Dudley registrations in this period between local and GRO indexes, other than for the unnamed . WestMidlandsBMD have the extra unnamed female that you found (with a corresponding death in the same district and quarter of an unnamed girl). There's also an unnamed female born and dying in 1861 but no other unnameds that show up on either set of indices. | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 16:46 | comment | added | ACProctor | I'm deliberately not using the GRO index here (e.g. via FreeBMD) because of missing entries and mis-indexing. That's why I pointed to the ukbmd site. Which source are you using here? | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 16:26 | comment | added | user104 | @ACproctor I can't find two unnamed Harper girls between 1864-1866, only one for whom there is a corresponding death in the same quarter (Mar 1864). | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 16:19 | comment | added | user104 | @ACProctor, I had all the Dudley births of a Mary Harper between 1859 and 1870 reference checked (back when the GRO still did that). None of them that are plain Mary or Mary Ann have a father James or unnamed. I should follow up on the unnamed ones. | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 10:22 | comment | added | ACProctor | You probably know already but it's worth adding a note that the registration district of Dudley is also associatd with Worcestershire, and more recently 'West-Midlands' (ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/dudley.html) | |
| Dec 20, 2012 at 10:00 | comment | added | ACProctor | Thanks for adding the extra information in the title. The ukbmd site, mentioned below, finds 3 Mary A births registered in Dudley in 1865-66, and 2 unnamed Harper girls between 1864-66. | |
