Title: MARSDEN
Post by: J.Roebuck on Friday 17 September 04 16:50 BST (UK)

Hello!
Does anyone know anything about the Marsden family from Thurgoland? I know that my great great grandad kept the Greendragon pub at Thurgoland and that he was also a farmer...He would have been born around 1856...

Anything pre 1891 would be fantastic!
