basic UK genealogy back to 1 July 1837

After exhausting family members' memories and papers and photographs with your questions then go to :-

Registration Services - Certificate Ordering Service

The General Register Office holds a central copy of all registrations for England and Wales updated every three months..

Local Register Offices hold the original records of births, deáths and marriages registered in their area. UKBMD - Births, Marriages, Deaths Indexes for the UK, On-Line
before 1875 not all births are registered.

pay per view of images of the so called St Cath's index (which used to be at St Catherine's House London)
Google Search: 1837online
Their index is of only of the first and last surname on each image

I prefer to go to a good central library and use the fiche.

On 1 July 1837 a civil registration system for births, marriages and deaths was introduced in England and Wales.

Registration was undertaken by civil registrars who reported to the Registrar General at the General Register Office (GRO) in London, now part of the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

Copies of anyone's birth, marriage or death certificates can be obtained by the public.
They are vital to family historians because of the genealogical information that they include." (Mark D. Herber, Ancestral Trails, Genealogical Publishing Company, Inc., 1998)


Since the original birth, marriage and death registers are not open to the public, getting access to the information on one of these certificates is done by first searching the national birth, marriage and death indexes, that have been created by the GRO for this purpose.
The indexes for the three events are each divided into quarterly volumes, with the names for each quarter listed alphabetically. Once an entry in one of the indexes is found, you are then able to use that information to order of certified copy of a death, marriage or birth certificate from the GRO/ONS.

The other information that can be obtained from the index include: year, record type, quarter (referred to by the last month of the quarter: March, June, September, and December), district (each county in England and Wales was divided up into registration districts), volume, and page number. Note: names were entered into the volume of the quarter in which notification of the event was received, not necessarily the quarter in which the event actually occurred.

from 1901 to 1861 (LATER to 1851 AND then to 1841) you need a subscription to Ancestry.co.uk - Genealogy and Family History Records
and with a fast internet connection is best.

Archbishop of Canterbury

Vicar General Marriage Licence Index: "VICAR-GENERAL MARRIAGE LICENCES
1694-1850
AND FACULTY OFFICE LICENCE ALLEGATIONS
1701-1850
'This is an index to the surnames of couples entered in the manuscript calendars of the archepiscopal marriage licences issued by the Vicar-General's Office for the period 1 January 1694 to 31 December 1850.

The Archbishop of Canterbury, through his Vicar-General, issued common licences for couples to marry in any parish church or chapelry in the province of Canterbury.
Common licences merely dispensed with the calling of banns on three successive Sundays.

If the couple lived in different ecclesiastical provinces (one in the Province of Canterbury and one in York Province) an application had to be made to the Master of Faculties of the Archbishop of Canterbury. These licences were known as Faculty Office licences."

These contain the oldest LAPHAM records that I have found so far.

Is therea a french origin for LAPHAM or a saxon place name LOPHAM?
Welcome to the Lophams


GENUKI: Norfolk: Genealogy: Towns and Parishes: Lopham, North

all this etymology is pure speculation until two versions of the same name are found in the same tree
LUPHAM appears as a transcription error
and Celtic-Anglo Saxon origin ?
IPC 17Nov1961:
"Lopham's Hall, a 17th century farmhouse."Carlton-cum-Willingham Cambridgeshire
Lopham's Hall used to belong to the Lord of the Manor, Mr. C.F.Ryder, and stands on the site of the manor house of Carlton Parva, afterwards being known as Barbedor's and Lopham's. The present, mainly 17th century, farmhouse is surrounded by a deep oval shaped moat which was probably used for defensive purposes in the early Middle Ages, but which is now being partially filled as it has proved to be rather inconvenient.

In my opinion soundex gives many false associations like LATHAN and LABAN
Britain: The meanings of Britain and British have evolved over time and as they have gained political significance.

from my email:-

just wanted to thank those people who took the time to educate me about
blogging. I found a good site for free blog space thanks to Hugh W. if
anyone is interested. See the blogspot link below to view my first efforts
and to get your own space. I have also added a few new things to my site
such as email links on each major page in order to make contacting me
easier. I never even thought of doing that. THANKS! I also wanted to
publicly thank Sue Ann Morrow for giving me an award for my site. It was my
first (and I hope not my last!!) THANKS SUE!! It can be viewed on the
awards link. I also am interested in a site map. Did I read that free find
does a site map or is this one you make yourself but is searched by
freefind? More information would be appreciated on that. Thanks again for
all the help. Any other constructive ideas on my website would be
appreciated!!

Gravestone Photos

IAGenWeb - Search Gravestone Photos From Across Iowa - All Iowa: "Welcome to the IAGenWeb Gravestone Photo Project! The mission of this project is to capture digital images of gravestones of our ancestors buried in Iowa. As decades pass-- many stones are becoming harder, if not impossible, to read the inscriptions they originally contained. By archiving the images, we can help save these important records and also assist researchers using this as a genealogical resource. "

I am surprised there are no Danes doing this in Denmark apparently
