Quite like Scarisbrick - nice village and a great pub The Scarisbrick Arms - my dad was evacuated during WW2 to a doctors house in Little Aughton - so we regularly visited Aughton / Scarisbrick in the summer months - I live about 15 - 20 miles away - next time I am in the Scarisbrick Arms I will ask about the Dobson family - you never know
might sound daft - but you can contact them online

have you checked if any Dobsons still live there on the Electorate Roll ??
I'm in kent and heading up there at the end of the month. I still have family there and still very close

As I've repeated before.. I am asking for stories or information on them specific to the area.. I've been doing this for a long time.  It's not really relevant on dates or specific names .. I thought this site was about family history .. if I wanted spacific I would have posted in the appropriate forums. If this isn't allowed by you then delete it.   I apologise and will go on to other sites. I've been researching Hong my family history since 2001. While I am no expert .. I most likely have the dates and relevant info.. I'm interested in the stated names whether related or not

Yup.. family search... lancashire ocp.  Ancestry I've done a general Google search. I've been at this a long time. This again is just to see what other people have found out.  My turners mostly worked in ainscough mill as we come forward

Mostly from newspaper archive and census.  I kept reading about 3rd generation breeders in the Preston cronicle. Did a bit of research and it tied in with my Dobsons.   Thanks for the advice.... I'm heading up there in a few weeks and hope to do some old fashioned hands on research.. bit difficult doing it from kent :)
