Title: Mayfield, Derbyshire
Post by: mafric on Tuesday 21 March 06 23:25 GMT (UK)

Hi,
i wonder if anyone can help. I am looking for information on the family of Joseph Broadhurst. He was born in Mayfield Derbyshire 1800.
I know that he married and lived in Staffordshire, but i cant find anything on the rest of his family.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Marie

Hi Marie,

Mayfield is in Staffs, it's just on the boarder of Derbyshire, I think the nearest town would be Ashbourne which is in Derbyshire, all very confusing :O)

What sort of information are you after?  Have you found him in any census returns?
