Fw: Ogle of Pinchbeck

Legg inn av John Higgins » 06 jan 2007 00:33:29

The address you give is for the third of the four volumes of Maddison's
Lincolnshire Pedigrees, which were published as volumes 50, 51, 52, and 55
of the Harleian Society's Visitation pedigrees [although these are not
themselves visitation pedigrees]. The volumes are page-numbered
consecutively over the four-volume series, which is why it looks like the
volume you cited has over a thousand pages - it actually has about 375. For
some reason only the third volume (52) appears to be available on Google
Books - not much logic to what they're choosing to digitize.

The pedigree of Ogle of Pinchbeck is on pages 730-736 of the second volume
(#51). It's far too extensive to transcribe here, but you should know that
Thomas was a common name in the family, and there are a couple of branches
containing contemporaneous Thomases, including some you mention. I'm sure
the FHL should have a copy of this - it's worth looking into....

The Lincolnshire Pedigrees is one of the things listed on my jump page.
Last week I was poking at it, trying to figure out if this Google
Books entry is actually all four volumes or just one of the volumes ?

http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC27765536

Does anyone know? It has at least a thousand pages. I did a search
for Ogle and hit four entires, although two were to the same page.
I've transcribed those entries here

Nor any logic to the ludicrous failure to identify serials by anything
resembling correct title, let alone volume number. They're supposed to
have hired hundreds of the brightest young geeks, but apparently this
includes no one with a basic understanding of bibliographical
conventions (nor copyright law, but that's another story).

Well said, Nat - the slackness & outright idiocy in the management of this
project would be far beyond belief, except for the daily evidence that
Google are putting before users.

They claim to be presenting a digitised library to the world as an important
resource for the present and a bequest to the future, yet they are making a
dreadful hash of it through ignorance & apparent contempt for books, authors
and readers.

More than weird enough, even for bright young geeks.
