Leighton
« on: Wednesday 20 January 21 08:35 GMT (UK) »
Hi everone. I'm trying to find any info on my 4th great grandfather James Leighton or Lighten born 1822 and married a lady called Honoria Walsh born 1825. Something to do with Co Mayo Ireland.  His father was John Leighton/Lighton born 1841. I've started getting into this recently. Take care. Lily.
