Most of my ancestors are from Scotland so I have used Scotlandspeople.gov.uk extensively. I have found that I have ancestors in England as well and an wondering if the English have a similar site to Scotlandspeople.

Family Bibles / A lost family Bible
« on: Saturday 04 February 06 05:36 GMT (UK)  »
I have a letter that My G Grandfather wrote that tells about a family Bible that was handed down among his family. How would i go about finding out where it would be now. Also is the information in family bibles accurate.  He out lines the family history down to  his father. while the names have all checked out so far the dates have often been inaccurate.

Cheers Dave G

Hi All,
        Thanks for the help that I have received so far. I found out that Margaret's father owned a shop in Old Broughton. Also Margaret was a florist assistant in Leigh when she was married and the shop was owned by the Robertsons. Her father was deceased by the time that she was married. the Marriage was witnessed by a Mr Robertson.

My new question is where do i find out about shop ownership.

Cheers Dave G
