Hoping someone can answer this; if a family had a removal order placed on them, would they be transported to the nearest place in the relevant parish where they had a claim for support, or would they be taken to the place in the next parish that was relevant in a more personal way. i.e. the man was born there/his father was born there/ or he had worked there for more than 365 days?
The parish they were removed from was Skerton in Lancaster parish, and they apparently had a claim in Bolton le sands parish, and were taken to Nether Kellet. Date was 1770.
Cannot find the man's birth to get more info on his birth/father.
many thanks
