[List-Cumbria] I'm back with more transcriptions!

[Petra Mitchinson]

A new academic year, a new effort...

 

I don't like it when the lists are so quiet!

 

Thank y'all (as Sarah would say) for your patience. Since I stopped sending transcriptions at the beginning of May, when I in any
case had almost run out of transcribed material, I have moved house to rural Kent, have been on a working holiday to Germany helping
to sort out my father's estate, have been on a real holiday in Romania, and have had a nasty bout of gastroenteritis, from which I
am still recovering. And I have indulged myself in doing research into my husband's family history, for which I haven't had a lot of
time over the last few years.

 

In spite of all this, I have managed to transcribe the Carlisle Patriot for July and August 1816 - which may not sound much, but
even with one missing edition, it has resulted in a stock of 57 postings. 26 of these alone are reports from the Cumberland Assizes
- and the assizes reporting will continue in September 1816, so there is more of this to come, if I find the time to transcribe.

 

So, enjoy it while it lasts, and please post comments about the articles and any ancestors you found mentioned in them to the lists,
as it is the feedback that keeps me going.

 

Have fun,

 

Petra
