Hi Jan

Only just spotted this...  I'd be really interested to know more about the 1764 census for Sowerby.  I am descended from born and bred Barrowclough/Barracloughs and their wives in the village of Sowerby.  Is it a hard copy you have?  Or an electronic spreadsheet of some kind that you could send?
