Welcome to The Briercliffe Society Forum

I still have pictures to add but I think all of the school photos are now visible.

Thanks for sharing them Kris

Thanks Mel. I think you added all of them, except for the Lane Head photo.

The original LaneHead email must be on my pc (not the laptop). Will check when I switch on.

How do you source these things Kris It continues to amaze me how you get all this info. you are a very dedicated guy.

Can't work out if this lot are relatives or not, perhaps when I get the Thistlethwaites out of the way, I will have a chance to dig out the File for Eastwood.

We have started my american cousin off on all this hunting. As I have provided her with all the Eastwoods we know of, she decided to search for her hubby's family. He knew nothing about them Well, she seems to have done well with a bit of guidance from me . She found his whole family including a half brother, no one knew anything about , no I havn't asked if his middle name is Moses, but am baffled how people who are not adopted lose a whole family. They apparently find it harder to trace people in USA on websites, she said the UK ones are a lot easier.

There are still Eastwood's living in Worsthorne. My old mate Jeffrey Eastwood's mum was called Alice. I believe he still live on Water St, Worsthorne.

Unless they came from a family that lived in the Brennand St area, they maybe the original peoples cousins etc,

Haggate has a lot of them buried in one corner and I never have found out the connection, But it is such fun searching, like hitting your head on a brick wall, it's nice when you stop

Is there any connection between your Eastwoods and the Mr Eastwood who taught at Bentley St Junior School Nelson in the 1950's?

I 'mislaid' many of them at about that time, he could be,but I seem to have exhausted all the clues, so who is still around in the area that I am related to is destined never to reveal itself.
I have only traced 5 of the seven people and the decendents to the current days, two are completely lost ( if Kris couldn't find them, they are lost ) but 5 out of 7 isn't too bad.
