Hi Jefff,
I don't know if you are like me but my interest and enthusiasm waxes and wanes on a regular basis. At the moment I am full on again but rarely get anything new now. What has frustrated me for years is the death of my great grandfather Richard (dob 1812) although I was told that he could have gone into the burial path alongside one of the cemeteries. I imagine that having a fairly young family at his age there would have been little money for a proper burial etc. so perhaps I will never know.
I have a fair number of Elley wills including one dated 13th Oct. 1854 and also a few entries from Bishop's transcripts, all via the courtesy of the archivist (fee paid of course). I also have quite a file of BMD certificates but not only of the Elley ancestors but all the rest of my family names as well. If I can help I will so let me know. This site has also given me quite a bit of excellent info. over the years. Cheers
