Title: Prescott Family
Post by: Calgarian on Monday 24 July 06 12:21 BST (UK)
Looking for anyone descending from John Prescott, born Hindley, moved to Rainford.  Owned the Derby Arms in Rainford for many years in 1880/90's  By 1901 owned a grocers in Church Road in Rainford.  Three members of his family also lived in Church Road.  He had 9 children so surely there is still someone left.

Hello,
I found a website with a request for Prescott's.
John & William of Huntley/Rainford/and Ad lington.
The email address given is
Ad lington@care4free.net
Hope this is of some help.
If you have access to English phone books it might be worth looking up Prescott's in the area you're searching & perhaps contacting them by mail.
Regards,
Hinton.

Thank you Hinton.

Sounds interesting and I have already sent Ellen Prescott an email.

I know there is another Prescott in Rainford but it isn't the same family.
