Hi, sorry to hijack the thread, but is the Brimington parish records CD something which is available to buy from anywhere and if so where? My grandmother's side of the family seem to be mainly from Brimington and I think it would be a useful resource. Thanks for any information.  :)

Occupation Interests / Re: What did a railway gatekeeper do?

I remember in a village just up the road from me they had a gatekeeper up until about the early 1990s when they replaced the gates with the modern electric ones. They had a little cottage at the side of the crossing and I remember you used to have to ring  a bell for the gatekeeper to come and open the gates for you to cross.  :)

I found this site through a family tree research thread on the Digital Spy forums. :)
