More news on the 1911 Canadian Census

from my Bristol_and_Somerset Mailing List email by Pat Marshall:-

For the many who have asked about when the 1911 will be available, below isa note from the National Archives in Ottawa. We have waited this long so Iguess we can handle another couple of months!The good news is that the bill that passed will allow access to all censusrecords between 1911 & 2001, 92 years after each census took place.I guess all I can say is have patience, it's coming soon!Pat
"Library and Archives Canada has received the official transfer of the1911 census records from Statistics Canada. To facilitate access tothese records, a number of standard policies and procedures need to befollowed before the product is launched. We are working very hard torelease this information to researchers and the general public asquickly as possible. We hope to do this by early August."

Forgive the cross posting, but I just had to share my happiness!

There is great news for those searching for relatives who may have come to Canada.
It appears that the bill to have open access to the 1911 census has passed both the Senate & the House of Commons and we shall shortly have access to these records.

A time of great jubilation for all those who worked so tirelessly on this project nad my hat is off to them all!

It has been a long wait but worth it in the end

Influence of Dramatic Climate Shifts on European Civilizations:

Determining the Climate Record - the Little Ice Age:
"The barometer and thermometer were invented by Torricelli and Galileo, respectively, in the first half of the seventeenth century.

Early rain gauges being used to record precipitation were sometimes exposed on roofs, which led to inaccurate readings due to splashing out and to loss of water via evaporation. (These problems led Englishman Richard Townley in 1676 to lead a pipe down through his house so he could accurately measure the rain from his own bedroom!)

Therefore, in order to determine earlier climate, investigators infer the climate record from physical and biological fossil data including, among others, oxygen isotope ratios detected in ice cores, tree-ring dating, ice flow and glacier data, and archeological discoveries, and also from records intended for other purposes such as weather diaries, shipping logs, tax records, crop production and pricing records, allusions to climate in art and literature, etc.
A careful examination of the climate record reveals that Europe experienced a prolonged warm period known as the Medieval Warm Period (hereafter referred to as MWP) between the years 600 and 1150,
cooling of the climate between the years 1150 and 1460,
a brief warming between the years 1460 and 1560,
followed by dramatic cooling known as the Little Ice Age (hereafter referred to as LIA) between the years 1560 and 1850. "

which means your ancestors starved, and had an incentive to move when wheat and rye prices peaked.
This also part of the background of social unrest leading to the franch Revolution

The romantic pictures of a frozen river Thames in London hide real suffering and starvation

Do read the whole of this fine site - relevant to global warming today too.

This came about like this
from my email :-

I need to verify some family records in the Festiniog area at the County Record office. Could someone refer me person or persons who do research on a fee basis.
Herschuel Howell, USA


my answer:-

Hi Herschuel

I would suggest you enquire on the rootsweb county list or the local FHS

local genealogy is very much on a county by county basis in UK
especially if before 1 July 1837 local knowledge is the key.

After that date civil registration and certifcates (official
copiescopies of bmd registry entries) dominates UK research
but before 1874 a percentage of births are not registered
1841 to 1901 census provide many short cuts and family groups

As you go back around our republican days and earlier
(Olive Cromwell - King Charles II)
only records related to land ownership, inheritance, courts,
nobility, heraldry and royalty tend to survive

===============

Howell is a classic welsh patronymic name
so (without location and occupation data)

mostly not related to each other

Jones is the Smith of Wales
and so
the many John Jones marrying Mary Jones need meticulous attention to
detail to avoid errrors - basically avoid pedigree and exhaust the
full breadth of resources

Don't fall for the marketing ploys of the DNA test salesmen.

Extraparochial or "Extra parochial"

extra-parochial district
eg
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HUN/Midloe/

Midloe was extra-parochial, and it still is for ecclesiastical purposes.
The civil parish of Midloe was abolished in 1935 to help create the
Southoe and Midloe civil parish.

The parish of Midloe occupied some 881 acres.
The parish of Midloe was in the St Neots Union for Poor Law administration.

Population in 1801 - 30
Population in 1851 - 49
Population in 1901 - 35
Population in 1951 - 33
The population figures from 1961 were included in those of Southoe.

to find the data for such a place will need extensive searches

Gwynedd Archives, Meirionnydd Record Office


"All Unitary Authorities in Wales maintain collections of archives and records relating to their areas, either individually or through a joint Record Office or Archive Services maintained by a group of Authorities. Each particular arrangement is largely the result of historical administrative patterns, dating back to pre-1974 county boundaries. Changes followed local government reorganisation in Wales in 1974 and again, in more radical fashion, in 1996.

While Record Offices and Archive Services all hold a valuable range of original archival material, some have much more extensive collections than others, depending on how long ago the service was established and the subsequent changes to, or continuity of administrative boundaries andstructures.

It is usual for a Record Office to hold material relating to county councils, parish councils, chapels, churches, organisations, business and industry, societies, families, companies and people, but the precise range and extent will vary for the reasons explained above.

It is therefore recommended that in each case searchers should locate the Record Office in question by using the ARCHON electronic gateway (the principal archival gateway in the UK) to identify the information page for the Record Office in question within the 'Wales'region.

This will provide key information on public services andcollections, usually with a link to the relevant home page, while further searchable information on the collections can be obtained from the National Register of Archives on the same website"
