I have a grandfather, James Ayrton, born in Burnley, Lancashire, England in 1843. A sister, Elizabeth, born in Aug 02, 1846 later married a Richard Calvert. Does anybody have any information on this Calvert? My primary interest is the Ayrton line but would like to know what became of the Calverts. I have reason to believe that some of them landed in Massachusetts in the late 1880's. Thanks for listening. Russ Ayrton
