Another load of changes and updates ................

Bagnall Ancestors

I have added a brief family tree showing the immediate ancestors of Alfred James Bagnall, my mother’s father (by adoption).  I do have a lot more information about the Bagnall family but it will take some time to sort out.  Click here to visit the new page.

Bagnall & Co.

Click here to read about Bagnall & Co. , the business founded by Alfred James Bagnall.

The Tickle Connection

John Tickle has provided a lot of very useful information about the Cowley family.  John has been researching his family tree for some 14 years and, as he said in an e-mail - “I naturally started with my own family and then got a bit carried away and started to follow all links away from my own lines.  Hence the interest in the Cowley family”.  Click here to see the ‘Tickle link’ from which John is descended.

Main Menu Bar

I have made some changes to the Menu bar which appears at the top of each page.  When you move your mouse over ‘Family Tree’ you will no longer see a drop down list of links but if you click on this you will be taken to a menu page with all the family tree links.  This is to make my life easier when I am updating the web site.
