Hi rootschatters,
I am a newbie and everytime I look at unread posts, I am always too late to help anybody, and I would like to help, so I am sad. So anyone who would like lookups in the RC baptisms, marriages and burials for St Joseph's Brindle, St Mary's Brownedge, Our Lady & St Patrick's Walton le Dale, St Bede's Clayton Green or St Mary's Leyland up to 1930 ish. I have transcribed them. Also oddments of other church's monumental inscriptions. Just tell me.
pagr 
For a look up request please start a new topic in the LANCASHIRE LOOKUP REQUESTS board giving as much information as you can.

Hi I dont suppose you've streched to Pleasington Priory have You ? I'm looking for the burial of Hugh Ackers, he died November 1908 in Blackburn. I know that he wasnt buried in the Municipal Cemeterys. he was of the Catholic faith. The Ackers family came from Brindle in the mid 1700s so anything you may have would be interesting.
Many thanks in advance
Mick

Hi Mick,
You are in luck, although I haven't transcribed Pleasington Priory myself, I have copied members of my family from the transcriptions done by the Blackburn Branch of the LFHHS. Also your Hugh Ackers is, according to Family Tree Maker, my 4th cousin twice removed! Born illegitimately to Esther Ackers on 28th July 1861, father Levi Snape, bapt. Pleasington Priory, married Margaret Collins 8th August 1892 at Pleasington Priory and died 12th November 1908 in Blackburn and buried at Pleasington Priory. I'd love to know how Hugh is related to you, and please contact me again if you need any more 'Acker info'. Pagr

Hi Pagr
You got me all excited now. We are definitely talking about the same chap. Hugh is my Great Grandfather, through his son Hugh.
I'll PM you if I can find out how to do it.
Mick.

Pagr, Did you come across any Tyrer's in St Patricks, Walton-le-dale? Perhaps any baptisms from a Peter Tyrer and Esther. Also a burial for Peter Tyrer. If I'm really lucky there might be a burial for a Richard Tyrer, Joseph Tyrer and a Benedict Tyrer. Many thanks if you have time. Regards, Matt

Hi
First time for me. Your offer looks great. I'm interested in Waterhouses living in Walton le dale. They may or may not have been RC but William (born c1821, I have census for 41, 61, ....) married Susannah Greenwood at the RC church in Brindle so presumably one of them was.
I am searching for the birth of William Waterhouse and father Richard (birth date very vague as ages on censuses vary WILDLY), but Walton le Dale definitely. I knoiw there were several Waterhouse families in the area at the time.
Hope you can be of some help
Janet
PS Not related, but I have transcripts for Wantage and also Stanbridge, Eggington, Leighton Buzzard in Beds and am very happy to do look ups

Hi Janet,
I found a William Waterhouse born 1st January 1822 son of Richard & Ann baptised at St Mary's RC Brownedge Walton le Dale. Godparents Lawrence Brown & Betty Woodcock. There is a Richard born 11th Sept.1796 to Thomas & Ann bapt. at the same church who could be his father in 1841 he is aged 40-44 and 1851 58 years old. There are dozens of Waterhouses in this area if you want more info send me your email and when I have time I will try and help in more detail pagr

Hi pagr
Amazing!! You have let me get another generation straight away. I am sure this is all correct for my family as I have the parents Richard and Ann from the censuses. Also, it gives Richard as born in Walton le Dale. I think the Ann is Ann Woods, marriage 24.5.1814 in Leyland.
I agree with the ages for Richard on the census, but I also have 1861 when it seems to be age 87!! - although it is pretty unreadable.
I have brothers and sisters from the censuses but no birth records - can't find William (my direct ancestor) in 1851. Ihave one, married to an Elizabeth, but I know that is incorrect as the same family is in 1861, where I DO have my William.
Any other info would be very gladly received. Thanks again
Hope I can give the same service to someone looking for the records that I have.
Janet

I too have Waterhouse ancestors in Walton-le-Dale, though I've not yet connected your Richard and William.
The Waterhouses were nearly all RC. In the period before 1837, you are likely to find that:
- Baptisms were are St. Mary's, Brownedge, being nearest RC church to their home.
- Marriages were at St Mary's, with a CofE ceremony the following day at St. Andrew's in Leyland, because Brownedge was in Leyland CofE parish.
- Burials were at St. Leonard's, Walton-le-Dale, being nearest burial ground to home.
Occasionally they used Brindle, but for most of Walton, it's not as easy to reach as Brownedge. Brindle church is older than Brownedge, and Samlesbury older still. In the early registers, transcribed by the Catholic Record Society, you see Brindle people's events at Samlesbury, and Samlesbury people's events at Brindle, so there might be ancestors in either place.

Thanks very much I don't know anything about the RC history - only just found that Waterhouses were RC - need to work out when they changed, as my grandmother (Mabel Waterhouse) was not RC as far as I know (no one left to ask now). Don't suppose in your vast resources, you have the birth of Susannah Greenwood (William's wife?) I have: Birth 7.7.1834, christened 27.7.1834, St Paul, Blackburn of Jabez and Betty, IGI, given as Susan (Know thaty IGi can be unreliable)
Thanks
Janet
