Hello distant cousin BRINDLEY.
James BRINDLEY (snr) is my 6g grandfather and our common ancestral link.
My 2g maternal grandmother was Rosanna SALT.
Rosanna’s parents were Matthew SALT and his second wife Mary HANDLEY.
Matthew’s parents were Thomas SALT and Elizabeth BRINDLEY.
Elizabeth’s parents were Joseph BRINDLEY and his first wife Sarah BENNETT.
Joseph’s parents were James BRINDLEY (snr) and Susanna BRADBURY.
Back to Joseph. His older brother was the JAMES BRINDLEY, canal engineer. Joseph had a number of siblings including James, John, Esther, Henry, Ann, Mary and Elizabeth.
