What's new

• 12-30-01 Thanks to more information from Sue and others, the database is now even bigger, with 4090 individuals and 47,400 lines of text. The database is less and less my own work, and more a cooperative of received information. Thanks to all.
• 2-15-99 Added more 1881 census information, and vital records information, including a lot from Gloucestershire. There are now over 3,600 entries. Thanks again to Sue for most of it. I have also revamped the interface, and think it is much more user friendly. I'll be adding a few more Gloucestershire families in the next few days, also.
• 1-9-99 Added 1881 and 1891 census information for many families in Somerset and Bristol. Database now has over 3,000 people and over 30,000 lines of information. Thanks to Sue Mayer for supplying the census information. (More to come.)
• 4-15-98 Added about 35 new families from 1891 census for Bedminster and Bristol. Thanks to Debbie for extracting the information. Corrected a problem with the information given for mothers. Previously some of the birth and death location information was incorrectly used from their husband's records.
• 3-22-98 Links to other researchers added. Pages now part of a global Derrick page.
• 2-12-98 Picture page started. Baptismal place distribution added. (See table of contents on left hand side.)
• 1-25-98 Records completely modified. Virtually all now have notes. Some additional families added and html pages modified to reflect changes. Two more indexes added.
• 12-4-97 Records modified up to 1800.
• 7-8-97 Added link to report on Edmund Dirrick of Ubley
• 4-4-97 Added records extracted from Dr Campbell's list of marriages and baptisms. These generally apply to the period 1850 - 90 for people living between Yeovil and Taunton in Somerset. Added a few 1881 census records for Clifton in Bristol. Corrected a problem in the name sort order in which people with more than one first name were sorted out of birthyear order.
• 3-17-97 Finally! All bugs out as far as I can tell. New buttons added. Records still modified only up to 1770, but all available information should now display.
• 3-12-97 Corrected mistakes from last update. Now all individuals are shown correctly. Missing notes are now shown. Frames more fully implemented. (3-14-97 Small adjustments made.)
• 3-7-97 Genealogic records revised up to 1770. Record interface enhanced to permit easier searches.
• 1-1-97 Modified format of main page. Added genealogic puzzles page. Genealogic records revised up to 1700. Added records for families at Wells (mostly pre-1700).
