Lancashire / Re: John "Jack" Stott of Rochdale

Hi
Great to hear from a family member :)
A couple of years ago I found some passenger lists for their dad's journeys to/from Lagos and a photo of one of the ships he travelled on, but with Jack I couldn't work out who his parents are so stopped. I've been trying again this week but still had no luck with the Stott family. I've got back to 1800 with the Butterworth side and have even found some photos of their gg and ggg grandfathers. Addy doesn't know yet. I have the tree on my Ancestry site. You can search for it on ancestry.co.uk or if you send me your email I can give you direct access to it; I think rootschat allows you to send private messages. Also, I found that if you put their grandmother's address into Google streetview you can see the house in Lagos.
Best wishes
Julie

Hi
I know your message was posted some time ago but I'm a friend of Joan's son and have been doing some research into her family tree for him. His grandmother, Sarah Butterworth, has been quite easy to research but I'm stuck on the Stott side. There are a few John Stotts of the right age on the census but I can't work out which one he is. Joan's son speaks very fondly of his grandad but doesn't know much about that generation of his family. I didn't know he'd been married three times. Any information you have on any family members would help me to make a start and I'd be happy to pass on anything I find out.
Best wishes
Julie
