Yorkshire (West Riding) / East Parade, Keighley

Hi there!

My friend has a business, located at 119 East Parade in Keighley. She/we were hoping to find out some of the history of the building. I was hoping some of you lovely people may have some pointers on where to start looking? Or any ideas what the building was used as?

Many thanks in advance,

Dawn  :)

Hi guys, and thanks for the welcome!

You are right about the Johnstones! So many of them around that area. William's father James was born in New Abbey, Kirkcudbrightshire, so even thought that narrows it down a little, he is still my brick wall  :( I'll not give up on him just yet though!

Ian - some people on my tree are from Lochmaben - Elliots and Bell are the surnames.

Monica - there just seems to be no one reasearching this particular branch of my tree  :( Am glad I posted though!

Many thanks for your replies  :)

Dumfriesshire / William Johnstone/Jane Glendinning

Hi there :)

This is my first post, so please be gentle!

My 3rd Great Grandparents were William Johnstone (b.6 Jan 1843, Dumfries, Parents - James Johnstone and Elizabeth Kirkpatrick), and Jane Glendinning (b.abt 1846, Dumfries, Parents - William Glendinning and Margaret Fergus(s)on).

I have quite a lot of info on them, via Scotland's People and DGFHS.

All I would like to know really, is if there is anyone else out there that is researching this line?
Would love to make contact and share info if you are?

Many thanks for taking the time to read this, and I hope to get some replies!!!!

Happy researching  :)

Dawn
