Re: Mclean family
My Dad is Jim McLean and my Mum is Joan Westwood, Less's sister.
Jim McLean (my Dad) is the son of Jim McLean, son of Jim McLean son of Archie McLean (Born 1846) who settled in Accrington around 1890. The progenitor of us i.e. the father of Archie, Angus, Jim, Hugh, Flora etc who are our respective Grandparents and Great Grandparents.

I get it now, thanks for that.
Nice to 'meet' you.
It's a small world.
Not being picky but......there's no Hugh.
