But they didn't reckon on how good we are with our JCBs did they so we get the last laugh....eventually.

I bet they do and I bet these folk I am trying to look up for the archive are too.

I'm sure they laugh at us from above watching us go round in circles.

LaGooner Report 13 Aug 2022 23:21

It is surprising how many different ones we get :-|

I know what you mean, you think you have a normal surname til someone can't spell.

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 13 Aug 2022 23:06

That is often the case I think. My maiden name has had some very strange spellings and OH's are even worse even to this day

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 13 Aug 2022 22:54

I suppose a lot of misspellings are due to the fact that some couldn't read or write was down to the one registering the event.

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 13 Aug 2022 22:41

Our lot are always changing the spelling just to keep me on my toes. The ones I am researching for the archive come from families with many branches of the same name :-S :-S

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 13 Aug 2022 22:38

That is what happens with me, there are various ways the surname was spelt but I got there in the end, my grandfathers surname was spelt 3 different ways on his marriage certificate.

I have been outside and picked a huge bowl of cherry tomatoes and ate quite a few while I was doing it :-D :-D. It is quite cool in the garden now but I am sat indoors now with my JCB digging for servicemen for the Archive records

No cooking is always good :-D.
It has cooled down a bit now so I'm digging with my JCB.
I hope you are as well as can be expected in this heat. X.

Shocking indeed Maz, how very dare they.
I went in the attic to get another fan out and boy was it hot in there, I melted in less than a minute that I was there.
Back with my JCB now.
