Welcome to The Briercliffe Society Forum

Hi everyone
Just wondering if these names connect to any one on the site Jane Ellen Cowgill(nee Hartley)
was the daughter of Jane Howarth and John Hartley of trawden. Jane howarth is also the mother of Moses Howarth who was the father of Bomberdier H.H.H.Howarth. Jane and John apparrentley had 14 children. Moses Howarth and Jane Howarth2(nee Smith) had seven children, Mel and Gloria helped me follow the Moses Howarth line ,i also had an email from Catherine Parkinson from Canada , her grandmother Effie Parkinson (nee Cowgill) was the daughter of Jane Ellen Cowgill(hartley) and John Cowgill. I found a picture of the grave on the Briercliffe society pages and sent it off to her.
