[paulepsom]

Dave, that is probably my Uncle Dunstan. Here is my grand father's info:
Henry Swarbrick (son of Thomas Swarbrick and Mary Ann Bamford) was born 1888, and died 1966.He married Helen Baines.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the additional information - I have him now. As I wrote earlier I am away from my main database at the moment, so I only have outline information. Thomas was born in 1854, a son of Henry and Ann [Nottingham] Swarbrick. Henry was born 1816 a son of William and Rosamund [Brown] Swarbrick. William was born 1784 a son of James and Mary [Postlethwaite] Swarbrick. James was born 1754 a son of George and Mary Swarbrick.

I shall be able to send you a more detailed account at the end of the week.

Regards,

Hi Paul,

Back with my main database now - I have sent you a personal message.

I can tell you that Father James Swarbrick, the "Riding Priest" who died in Lancaster Castle in 1716, was not, as far as I can tell, a member of your extended family.

Dave,
Thanks for all that info. My sister has confirmed a lot of what you sent me. There is a lot of extra detail too.  Excellent stuff.  I would be interested in  any info you can generate on closer ancestors/ cousins etc.
Thanks a million
Paul

Just noticed this thread now; hope I'm not too late to join the conversation.

Philip Swarbrick married Georgina Linda Tarrant in 1939 in Cheshire. Philip might have been called Pip. My husband remembers them.

They were related to my husband through his grandmother Linda Christy. Linda's sister Elizabeth Christy married James Tarrant in 1909 in West Kirby.

Have you got these Tarrants in your files?

Regards,
Josephine

Hi Josephine,

I do not have any Tarrant family connection to that particular Swarbrick family. Can you give me a little more on the Philip who married in 1939 - his age or parentage would help.

Hi, jds1949:

I don't have any more info on him. I know his name and who he married from my husband and I have the year of marriage from the index (probably the Cheshire BMD site) but I don't have any actual records for him (they're both deceased).

Regards,
Josephine

OK - I've got him now - different Swarbrick family:

Philip Swarbrick born 13th November 1911 at Birkenhead, the son of Philip and Madeline [Dickson] Swarbrick. Philip senior ran a public house in Birkenhead. Philip junior worked as a steward in the Merchant Navy.

If you'd like to know any more then send me a pm and we'll take it from there.
