Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Birstall / Batley Relatives
« on: Thursday 09 March 17 01:34 GMT (UK)  »
My great grandfather John Fox was born in Birstall in 1841 and my grandmother’s parents Timothy Ineson (1914) and Hannah Marsland (1813) were also born in the area. The family surnames in the first 3 generations are: Fox, Ineson, Armitage, Priestley (Joseph Priestley 1733 – 1804 was a great uncle), Marsland, Hirst, Clayton, Street, Hanson, Cowling, Longbottom, and Lee. I am going to be visiting Yorkshire this July. I am looking for guidance or help finding relatives in these families who live in the area. It would be really nice to meet them and share family information.

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Visit to West Riding, Yorkshire
« on: Wednesday 08 March 17 21:36 GMT (UK)  »
I live in Dallas, Texas USA. My mother's father's family came from the Birstall/Batley area near Leeds. I am going to be visiting there in July. I've got about 12 surnames from the area just in the first 3 generations beyond the last ones born there. Any suggestions on ways to connect with relatives living in the area? It would be cool to meet them and share family histories. I have sent emails to the church vicors and the local historical society. Is there an online phone book type of look up that will also contain email addresses so I can contact them in advance? Can anyone suggest a local genealogy researcher who can help filling out ancestor data? Thanks for any help.
