Hi jds1949,

Yes I think that's it: amazing! I'm pretty certain that George is my 6th great grandfather. I believe that he married twice (to two Mary's) and had 18 children overall. I am also led to believe that William (George's father) was born in Little Plumpton. That would fit with the info you've supplied. Also, that William married Ann[e?] Hodgson in 1731 Cockerham, Lancs. Please let me know if any of this correlates with your records! Cheers.

Hi SandyMC,

I've found that record for George Swarbrick from St. Michael's on Wyre. I thought that I might have been onto something. However, after some digging in Lancs record office it turned out not to be an ancestor!

I've been in touch with someone on ancestry.co.uk who suggests that a George Swarbrick of Kirkham, Lancs was 14 in the 1767 Returns of Papists.

I know from parish records that George Swarbrick and Mary Kitchen (Swarbrick) were the parents of John Swarbrick (1783-1826). It's just a question of finding the right George!

There's a copy of the Returns of Papists in Birmingham Central Library so I plan to visit. It would be helpful to get an index/series number to narrow my search to Lancashire.

Cheers,

Sam

Hello,

A George Swarbrick who lived in Kirkham, Lancashire. If such a record exists, which section of the Returns of Papists can I find it in? Is there a series number? Many thanks in advance.
