From 2010

Desperately seeking Samuel Dobson born about 1807 in North Yorkshire

If you have Dobson connections please click on the photo to link you to the St Hilda, Ellerburn website where some of the 'Dobsons' have posted photos.

You will see that the memorial was recently cleaned up by some of the 'Dobson clan'.

Do check out my other blog about my ancestors if you are researching the Dobson, Crooks, Allsop(p), Richmond families.

November 2011 Scavenger List Photos

Here’s my photos for November – and for a change I have got them all quite quickly!!!!!  They are in no particular order.

So here goes:
Polka dots: a scarf given to me by my good friend Gingeyginge.

Something that lights up: my Ottlite which I use when crafting.
 November 2011 Scavenger 001
Something you have made: these are a couple of pieces of bobbin lace I made back in the 1980s – the top one was made for my mother and the bottom one was made for my mother-in-law – as they are both no longer with us I have them hanging in our dining room.

A lucky charm:   a little lucky boot which I have carried around in my purse for many years now – supposed to mean that you will never be without money – looks like it works even though there isn’t much in my purse!
November 2011 Scavenger 004
Comfort food: a box of lovely Shortbread biscuits – yummy!

November 2011 Scavenger 005
Poppy – this is a lovely ornament made for the British Legion – she’s beautiful isn’t she?
November 2011 Scavenger 006
Something purple: this is my Boxer Board from Crafter’s Companion.
November 2011 Scavenger 007

A staircase: this is the staircase at  Langley Castle and this is my niece’s  husband on the evening of their wedding – a little worse for wear I think!

A memorial: this is the obelisk in the Church yard of St. Hilda, Ellerburn, North Yorkshire erected to the memory of some of my Dobson ancestors.
49 Dobson Obelisk
Warmth: my lovely gas fire which reminds me of home and the lovely real coal fire which always burned in the grate.
November 2011 Scavenger 002
Self portrait: a photo of me – taken by me – as I can’t draw for toffee!

Silhouette: sorry, the only one I had to cheat on – I downloaded this free silhouette from the internet.

  7. Must just set the record straight - the guy leaning on the banister of the staircase is my niece's husband - not my sister's which is what I originally wrote!!!!! Oops - sorry.

    Also the boot is not from Monopoly, it really is a lucky charm which I keep in my purse.
