Welcome to the thread,
I am a member of the Anglo-German Family History Society (AGFHS), and it was recently pointed out to me that we don't have a specific forum for people with German ancestors located in the North of England (Lancashire, Cheshire, Yorkshire, Cumbria, Northumberland, Durham, etc). So I have decided to start a thread to solve that problem for members and non-members alike. Please tell everyone about your German ancestors 'up north': what did they did for a living, where did they live, where did they come from and why did they come?
Hopefully we can all help each other, and maybe we'll discover some connections between our ancestors.
Regards,
Richard
