» Registration Process |
You are welcome to look around the Lawson, Cheesbrough and Vertigan web site but at this stage you will be allowed limited access only. The main Forums will appear empty and you will not be able to download any data files.
If you encounter any problems during the registration process and are unable to complete this for some reason then please contact me by email at gdl@yorksgen.co.uk setting out the difficulties you have experienced. I can register you saving you any problems so if you would prefer this please tell me what user name and password you would prefer and your full name and where you live.
Registered users are allowed full access and therefore you are encouraged to use the Registration Process. This involves completing some details about yourself and where your Lawson, Cheesbrough and Vertigan interests lived. Click on "Register" on the Blue Links band above.
You will need to enter a User Name and Password so that you can enter the site fully each time you visit. There is a box called "Remember Me" which you can tick to save re-entering these details every time. A small cookie is then inserted but this is only used to save you the effort of entering these passwords every time you visit.
User Names and Passwords are case sensitive so please ensure that you remember them.
To ensure that internet spiders do not infultrate this web site it is important for your own security that on registration you give your valid e-mail address. You can be sure that the details you enter in your User Profile are safe from the prying Internet Spiders as they will not get beyond the initial pages. The following graphic shows one such Spider being prevented from viewing personal details of one of our members. The 'Stop' sign indicates that entry to this was barred.
Once you have registered you will receive an e-mail message welcoming and requesting you to acknowledge receipt of this by clicking on the web site link provided. This is to ensure that you have given a valid e-mail address in the registration process. Until you validate this you will not be able to access complete Forum details for forename and help wanted.
If you enter an invalid e-mail address then you will not become fully registered.
The site contains numerous databases which can be downloaded for use with a suitable database program or spreadsheet, some are available on-line as viewable areas. However, before members can have access to them you must add some information about your Lawson/Cheesbrough/Vertigan family by entering details in one of the Forums. This has the advantage of allowing all other members to see who your family is and hopefully you will gain links to others researching your family too. It is important to use dates and locations where the family lived, if you do not know precise dates then please give a best estimate of when they were born.
Members often change e-mail addresses. In order that you can receive notifications of activity on any posts you make it is important that you change any e-mail addresses in your own "User Profile".

» Lawson, Cheesbrough & Vertigan One Name Studies |
This site has been developed to assist anyone researching the Lawson, Cheesbrough or Vertigan names in what ever part of the world they are found. All data contained in the project is made freely available and no charges are made for any data, assistance or research undertaken. The One Name Studies have been in operation for 15 years although development of this new web site now with Forums began in March 2006. During this period we have amassed a huge amount of information and data and this is available to registered users only. In return you are asked to enter details of your Lawson or Cheesbrough ancestors in the Forum Forename sections appropriate to their origins.
The Forums are the main part of this site. This is where you will create or reply to posts or threads about Lawson, Cheesbrough and Vertigan families. Click on FORUMS in the Site Navigation Panel to the left of the screen to enter or alternatively Click Here.
Use the Site Navigation Panel also to take you to other areas of the web site. Click on the Lawson One Name Study image at the top of each page to return to the Home Page.
You are encouraged to post details of your Lawson, Cheesbrough and Vertigan families (including variant spellings of these names) in the appropriate Forenames Forum depending on where in the world they lived. Doing so will enable others researching the same families to make contact with you and also allow me to search my extensive databases and so offer details from these. The advantages are that you will then be able to share information and hopefully extend your knowledge of your family. You can include photographs in your posts but these must be already sited on a web server. If you do not have your own web space then you can easily host them at www.photobucket.com where you can have a free account and space for your pictures. If you prefer you can send photos to me and I will add them to your posts.
You may also post queries in the appropriate Help Wanted Forum in relation to any aspect of your research especially where you have hit a 'brick wall'. It is quite likely that somebody else already has the answers to your problems so saving you endless research time and thereby extending your family.
It is not intended that threads should deviate to other surnames as this will detract from the usefulness of the Forum although it is right to include maiden names of spouses to properly identify them. Please use the individual forums best suited to where your ancestors lived.
When posting please make the subject line as meaningful as possible by including the name of the person, where they were from and date of the event. The main body of your entry should again be as full as possible with as many details of your families such as dates and places of birth, marriage and death. Use one entry per generation of each family using the head of the family as the main subject title.
Gerald Lawson (February 2008)

7th May, 2008
The software used in running this site has been updated. Should anyone encounter problems running the site please let me know and details of the difficulties.
The British Census database has been updated with the addition of an extra 1,000 people and this now contains a massive 41,000 individuals. Members only can download this file from the Lawson Records page.
The England and Wales Lawson deaths database has been updated with an addition 9,800 records now spanning the years 1837-1900.
The US census database has been updated with an additional thousand new names with the total now covering 15,000 Lawson names
The Lawson marriages database has been updated and now contains records up to 1915 with an additional 3,589 added.
The Canadian census database has been updated and now lists over 1500 people.
We now have access to the 1901 Scottish Census records in addition to the 1841-71 and 91 census and these will be transcribed and added to the database as time permits.
Our membership has reached 700. This is fantastic and we look forward to the next milepost of 1000 members. Don't forget though that to gain the most from the site you do need to post full details of your families in the Forums. This is where you will find others researching the same people as yourself.
The Forums have taken shape well and several members have already discovered cousins they did not know existed. We need everybody to enter the names of their ancestors in order that this site will become even more successful. Please enter forenames of your families in the appropriate Forum and if you are stuck at a particular level of your research please do add 'your Brick Wall' in the 'Help Wanted' section. Don't forget to include when and where your ancestors were born.
The continued success depends on readers becoming members who will then have full access to all pages of the site including downloadable files which will undoubtedly be of great assistance in your research. If you don't subscribe then these areas will not be open to you.
