Hello from Devon
I found this site while looking for Joseph Briggs, so although I don't live in Accrington, I hope you don't mind me visiting here. I was born in Oldham. My mother is from Accrington as was her parents and grandparents and back they were the Barlows. I think they were quite well known,one was a mayor. My grandfather George Douglas and his father James and his father Daniel were all joiners. If anyone comes across anything about the family while doing any research I would love to know. I don't need any census info thankyou. Iam interest in things like newspaper snippets or adverts and photographs.
I am enjoying reading the threads Thankyou Carol  |
