Dear All, I am now pleased to say that I have researched a premier Barraclough line back to 1574, complete with all the sources documented and have put it onto my web site. If anyone has any connection with the following marriages: 07 August 1769 Ann Barraclough and James Smith; 14 May 1746 Abraham Barraclough and Ann Beetham; 07 May 1733 Abraham Barraclough and Mary Holdsworth; 07 September 1731 Elizabeth Barraclough and Joseph Smith; 21 June 1730 Joshua Barraclough and Sarah Smith; 05 May 1725 Sarah Barraclough and Jonas Seed; 17 December 1724 Francis Barraclough and Martha Wood; 22 November 1704 Abraham Barraclough and Eleanor Priestley; and 10 December 1700 Ellen Barraclough and Richard Cordingley; then according to me, you are descendents of Richard Barraclough and Elizabeth Judson, who married in 1566. The relevant family trees are there complete with cross-references and navigation links. I have also updated my database of individuals so it is possible to get additional information, not on the trees from the database. I would be pleased to hear from anyone descended from these marriages, where there is further information that I could usefully add. I have details of dozens of other family groups, but this is the only continuous line that I have traced back to 1540. I will add these other groups from time to time. I would also be pleased to hear from anyone with comments; good or bad. I havent had any positive response yet to my request for early Wills. The intention is to share the information and to assist others. You will find the information on my Barraclough page.

Hi Jeff, wow what a lot of info in one go, it has confused me a bit as I have only just got to grips with the research of June Benn and this now confuses me even more! I have a direct link back to Francis(1685) who married Mary Pollard in1714. but I was under the impression that Richard 1546 had married alike hoyle, has this now been disproved? their son Abraham I believe married a Jane Awdrey and then an Agnes riley, but neither of these names appear in your tree. anyway from Francis and mary i have a Stephen who married Hannah longbottom. they had john who married ann. brooks. they had Thomas who married mary harker they had Henry brook who married alice ann platts they had john who married Lucy bottomley they had Herbert who married Annie Barrett they had Michael who is my father. any help with the confusing bits will be gratefully accepted. well done on the research a sterling job!!!
