Kendal Records Office anyone?
« on: Tuesday 18 April 06 16:37 BST (UK) »
Hi there

I am looking for any details of an Abraham Simpson born in Morland in 1821. His father was called Joseph. If anyone is going to Kendal Records office anytime soon I would appreciate a lookup. The local church is caller St Laurences.

Also any details on Joseph Simpson and the family that Abraham left behind would be great too.

Many thanks
