Hi,
I am related to William Moore born 1837 married Elizabeth and had Ann 1864 (my GGGrandmother) William, Thomas and Mary and lived on Little Scotland. Ann married John Hartley in 1881 and lived on Dark Lane. There are 3 William Moores born in Blackrod in the same year, this is why i am now a bit confused about which one is which!! I also used to live in Blackrod just 2 mins away from my ancestors (which I did'nt know about then) how bizarre! I now live 5000 miles away in Mufulira, Zambia.

Regards,
Karen.
