Presently looking for Greenwood Jonathan and Greenwood Betty (mother of Jonathan.
Jonathan was not all that common in the 1800's. If you have him in your family tree I would be keen to swap notes with you.

Do you mean the Shackleton's of Briercliffe? a decendant lives next door to me.

Glenys, I am a Kippax, haven't we spoken of them before?

I believe we may have Gloria.
My Great Grandmother married James Kippax (her second marriage). She was Susannah Dean (nee Horne). He was born Nov 1850 in Barrowford Lancs and died 1909 in Burnley. Their children were John, Robert, Elizabeth and James Kippax. Elizabeth married Albert SEED and their only son, a pilot, was lost in WW2. John and Robert may have been twins. James married Mary Moore from Brierfield. He died soon after returning home to Burnley from the great War.
I have other bits and pieces about my Kippaxes but not much more than what is written here.

Here parents were, Samual and Angelina Shackelton, she is Angela and had at least two brothers one of my Thistletwaites married a Shackleton man, but I'm avoiding bringing the subject with her for the time being!!

I don't think I have that James Kippax linked to mine, that's not to say he isn't of course, but not directly to me.

Hi Glenys
How are you doing with the Dean family connections?
I hope you saw my only information on my Dean ancestors
Did you find a Rosy or Rosa Dean amongst your Dean family from Little Marsden?
I wish I could be of more help.
Knd Regards
