Take two 5xg-grandparents Catch-up Weeks - 14 Mar - 3 Apr 2014

[kiterunner]

Our weekly challenge to see how much information you can find out about each of your 5xg-grandparents has come to an end. But we are having a catch-up fortnight for you to post any ancestors who you missed out or have only added to your tree since the week when they would have been posted. For this challenge, we ask that you only post a thread if you know the first name of your ancestor.

If you want to take part, just start a new thread on this board for each ancestor and put his / her name in the Title.

Copy the following form and fill in the answers that you already have, then over the course of the next two weeks you try to fill in the blanks and everyone else helps you. If you're lucky enough to have all the information already, then you can still post it up if you want, so that search engines can pick it up.

Can you fill in all of the following information about that person:

Name - "official" name and what they were known as
Date and place of birth
Names of parents
Date and place of baptism - if applicable
Details of each of his or her marriages - if any
Occupation(s) - if any
Addresses where they lived (including county if in UK) - and please list which censuses you have or haven't found him/her on (if s/he lived in census times!).
Date, place and cause of death
Date and place of burial.
Details of will / administration of their estate - if applicable
Memorial inscription - if any


Adoptive or step-5x-great-grandparents welcome!

Also, if you have posted a thread in TO4G for this couple's son or daughter, could you please include a link to that thread.

Thanks for this, Kate.

Are there plans afoot for a sequel to this challenge?
I'd be quite bereft without something to post every Friday!

[kiterunner]

Yes, there is something new coming up soon, Elizabeth.

I am looking forward to it, Kate.

[ElizabethHerts]

Oh dear, I'm still finding ones to add.

I have a couple I probably won't add due to the speculative nature of my findings!

[kiterunner]

Okay, we'll keep it going a bit longer to give people time to add any more.

[ElizabethHerts]

Thanks, Kate, but don't worry on my account. I have had a last-minute flurry of activity but two couples I could add I might not. I think I have caught up with OH's lot now.

If there is an extension of time that will be great, I was sorry that I hadn't added more. .. I have quite a few to add, but I've been away and then had to catch up here again on return.
Now to find the list I was preparing before!!.. Julie

Okay, I've added an extra week to the thread title.

Thanks Kate. Julie
