George EDMUNDS of 18, Horse Fair: a really 'Bad Apple'?

Please can anyone help? I was watching this thread as George Edmunds, a distant cousin who lived in the Horse Fair in the 1830s, ended up on the Hulks, as a young man.

I received a notice on Thursday that Alberta had replied to it, and that the thread had been moved to Surnames. But I cannot find it anywhere on the site, and when I click on the links on my email page, I get an 'Oops! We ran into some problems.' reply, and 'The requested thread could not be found.'

Please can anyone direct me to this thread?

Many thanks.
 
There is the thread that you posted in 2015 here…

Help Please: Lunatic Asylum, Fordrough ?Lane.

I have an ancestor, George EDMUNDS, born in Exeter Row in 1828, who was sentenced to Transportation in July 1849, but served his sentence instead on the Hulks and in the terrifying new prisons at Milbank and Pentonville. Upon release, he returned home, married and found work in the Birmingham...

Hi, it was me who moved your thread, we are having a complete clean out to redirect threads to a more appropriate section.
I cannot explain the disappearance , of your thread it has not happened to any others that I moved and I am really sorry.
Would it be possible for you to post the original post in Surnames and hopefully whoever added to it previously will do so again. . Alberta.
 
Hi Alberta,

Yes, I realised it was an admin thing.

Trouble is, I do not have the original thread, or what I put in it, though I DO have the URL to follow to the replies. One was by ladylinda on 21 11 12, at 21.32, and one by sistersue61 on the same date at 23.07. The URL is
http://birminghamhistory.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=40700&goto=newpost but if I follow it, it says I do not have Admin rights.

Don't know if any of that might help to track down the original post.

Jane
