CUSTOMER ADVISORY (PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING)
As you may or may not know the vast majority of our publications have a great many pages of information, this one however is an exception.
The data contained totals just 15 pages, in line with eBAYs & our own straight & honest upfront selling policy we wanted to inform buyers of this before bidding. Having said that you could buy another CD with 500 pages & find nothing & then buy a small one like this & drop onto to an ancestor.
Sometimes the amount of pages means nothing but we wanted to make it clear, so no complaints afterwards please!
Please note all the towns and villages listed below have some reference to individuals, both residents and traders, but not necessarily the whole population of the towns or villages therein. They don't just list the elite this is a common misconception. There are plenty of people of average standing in the community, such as Butchers, Joiners, Shopkeepers, Boot & Shoe Makers etc
However even if you know for certain that a relative was living in a particular place at a certain time it does not automactically follow that you will find them in a book as it was the individuals choice as to whether they went into these type of publications, but it's great fun looking & you might get lucky !
