Lancashire Lookup Requests / Little Heath Didsbury
« on: Friday 15 September 06 17:37 BST (UK)  »
I wonder if anyone could tell me where Little heath is in the Didsbury area. I have been looking at the Linneys that used St James parish church in Didsbury in the 1700's and earlier.
Some of the entries  in the parish registers say that some of the Linneys came from Little Heath and I have been unable to find this place. It may have been an area that was named by the locals rather than an actual place. Can anyone place it???

Thank you very much for all that information. Some of it I have and some I do not. I still do not have info on Thomas Linney born 1775/6 and I am not sure what to do. Do you know anything about the BIVR (I think thats what it's called) something to do with the Latter day saints? Are you linked with the Bredbury/ Romiley Linneys?

Cheshire Completed Lookup Requests / Linneys of Stockport
« on: Saturday 26 August 06 22:17 BST (UK)  »
I have hit a brick wall now that I have traced my family to about 1774 in Bredbury and Stockport.
 Thomas Linney who lived most of his life at Bredbury Green was married to  to Ann Williamson at St Marys Stockport in July 1799. All of my info up to this point I have checked with parish records and certificates and rate returns etc.
 I think that Thomas was christened at the presbyterian church High Street, Stockport his father also a Thomas found on the IGI.
 What I am struggling with is the best way to check and cross reference these Linneys that I think belong to me. Has anyone got any info on Linneys? Has anyone got any tips on how to look up and be confident that these people are the correct ones?
I am currently collecting every Linney I can find from the 1841 census, and parish records of Stockport in the hope that I can piece them together like some sort of jigsaw?   Help! anyone!
