Crikey Kris "This is all that I have", not much :wink:
On the marriage for Elizabeth (1831) to James Kippax it says she is a spinster, and yet you have a previous marriage for her.
We have been down this road before with the Kippax family and the Leaver family living at Hollin Grove, didn't we find an illegitimate child of a Leaver fathered by a Kippax? it wasn't these two was it?

As far as I know she was married only once, but there were three illegitimate children, father was unknown (I have not sorted the children yet, hence I they are not mentioned above)

Hi Chris, welcome to the site.

There is not necessarily a right, wrong or easy way to post the kind of information you have.

I think Kris (Leaver) may also find this post of interest but he is Rwanda for another 3 weeks yet so a reply from him will be delayed.

Hi Chris, welcome to the site.
Have you thought of putting the tree on the home page under family trees? There are quite a few on there now. If you are unsure how to do it contact Mel-----she talked me through it.
By the way I think your formatting is fine, especially "See copy of page 15. in scrap book" mine would be "See 3rd pile of scrap paper" they never get as far as a scrap book.
Author:  Mel [ Tue Mar 18, 2008 9:26 am ]
Post subject: 
Send me a PM or email if you wish to have your tree added Chris.

Gloria, you have piles of scrap paper! (Nearly stopped at 'you have piles' :twisted: )
Mine are not in piles and not even in the same room! Lyndon complained the other day that there is even a 'dead person note' in the bathroom window. His mum had given me a news cutting of a local death which I shoved in my pocket. On taking laundry to basket in bathroom, I emptied pockets and put the cutting in the window.
