Iluleah -- thank you. I did have a belated thought after posting my message. John might not be seeking help with some of the statements he has made. he may just be providing general information -- no actual questions have been asked.

I then thought - if that is the case I've just made a complete plonker of myself!

Hence John -- it would also be useful if you could clarify whether you are looking for particular help with any of these families if you don't mind please.



Places of interest;
Lancashire, West Yorkshire, Southern Ireland, Scotland.

Seems John has only posted the question and has not even been back to read any of the answers......... maybe John is used to American forums which take years to get an answer ( and often the answers given are completely irrelevant to the question asked)

Not much point in using up time until poster comes back with some names/dates of anyone "unfound"!
Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Have you added your ancestors to the Surnames list and checked to see if any other RootsChatters may be/ have been researching the same families?
