Welcome to The Briercliffe Society Forum

Hi

I am researching the Jackson family , in particular William Jackson who married Nanny Priestnall. Have located quite a few deceased children of William and Nanny, via the grave on this site, but so far I know very little about them. Their son James came to Queensland Australia and James went on to marry Mary Martin in Fortitude Valley Brisbane on the 9th December 1865. They went on to have 9 children (as many as I have located, that is). I would greatly appreciate any assistance you can give me.

Hi, welcome to the forum. I assume this is the grave you mean http://briercliffesociety.co.uk/Grave%2 ... ckson3.htm

Where did William and Nanny marry? You might find more church records of relevance on the Lancashire Online Parish Clerk website. It's a very useful resource for Lancashire research http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/

Have you located census information?
