Hi Bob and Jenny. Thank you for a really absorbing video. We were fascinated to se the various strands of Bob's family history picked out in the video. George is currently doing our families' trees, but research in Scotland is a little bit harder as there are not so many sources of information, as we have research remotely, but your video has given us fresh enthusiasm to continue. Terrific research from Jenny and we enjoyed the sense of pride and achievement about the family which you both clearly got from that and actually visiting the relevant locations. Smashing video - thank you both. George and Trish

Very interesting history of your family Bob, such a shame your grandmother was widowed so early in her marriage to your grandfather and like you say a sad story. I find it fascinating, I have done this family tree research on my family too. Great video nice that you were able to find some of the buildings you were looking for.

I once used ancestory to find about my Mothers Mother, she passed away when mum was 7, we could never understand a connection with a Doctor being her parent, i found out that her Mother passed away when herself and brother were infants and they adopted them. I did find her brothers family too to find out we all went to school together.

Hi Bob & Jenny, As a family history enthusiast it was very pleasant to watch and listen to your history. Two points firstly my grandad was a cabinetmaker and upholster and died at young age with respiratory problems that was blamed on the glues and varnishes. Secondly the GRO office is based in Southport, but I do not know whether you can order certificates over the counter. On line applications take only a few working days and I usually purchase the email version and then print it off. Keep on researching. Geoff

A very interesting video, thanks. The area of where the Parkinson Street house is located is classed as one of the rough areas of Burnley, though probably wasn't way back. As you saw they have now demolished a lot of the old terraced houses and built new houses, so at least they are now trying to improve that area. I have trees on Ancestry though it can be very time consuming and also frustrating at times. One part of my tree, I have managed to trace back to the mid 1500s, but not as successful with other parts especially when a person turns out to be illegitimate. It is fascinating what you find out. I've sent for a few birth/death certificates and on one death certificate for a 3 or 4 x gt grandmother in the 1800s (off the top of my head I can't remember which), her cause of death is listed as "By the visitation of God".....which these days would certainly not be allowed 🤣🤣. I've some ancestors that were of the Quaker faith and I have found some excellent records for those ancestors, because the Quakers were good at keeping records. Last week I ordered an Ancestry DNA kit, so that will be interesting to see what info I get from that.

The drive around Burnley took me back. Lots of people moved into the area from Yorkshire for work. Cotton and iron were the major employers. Some of my family came from Gargrave and surrounding area. My Great Grandmother married in Gargrave but was born in Mayfair - nobody knows why she ended up in Gargrave but the only plausible idea of the many people I am in contact with is that her employer had a house in the area, still a mystery. As for Townley hall, did you take a photo of the drive with the hall behind you? George Washington is a decedent of the Towley's.

Hello Bob and Jenny thank you so much for sharing this fasinating video which is something I have also done and found so many stories that just brough many family members to life in many ways, some stories not to sweet but, it is what it is and everything I found was very interesting. As I was watching your story I looked up the "British Newspaper Archives" and there are quite a few articles there that may well help you in your quest including, company advertisments, wedding pictures (not good quality) and quite a few stories. Unfortuneatly you have to subcribe but it is certainly worth it. Good luck and take care. 👌

I have traced my family history too, my mums side were from York so I always go past my grandparents house when I am nearby. Fond memories of travelling up to York on the train to stay at my grandparents. Even though you could have seen the houses on street view its not the same as going in person. It somehow makes more of a connection to think you were in the same place albeit many years later.
