I'm a born and bred Mancunian, brother still in Manchester, I'm in London now though, moved here almost 19 years ago from the West country, where we spent almost ten years. Since doing my tree, discovered that an awful lot of my rellies actually came from London, born in Shoreditch! And a couple from the West Country too.........didn't know I have been following them around lol! It's amazing really.............went on a fact finding mission long before realising I was going to be looking for any! Jen

I was born in Bury, lived in Heywood, then in Middleton, then in Chadderton Oldham, so even though I am now living in Stoke on Trent , I would say I am from Lancashire! The people are the salt of the earth! Marie: )
