Hi everyone, I was pointed to this list by Martin Briscoe (thanks Martin) and have posted a couple of questions that have been troubling me. I thought it would be polite to briefly introduce myself and my interests. I've read through the back archive of the list, so I have a reasonable idea of how active you all are, though I haven't spotted anyone looking at my particular lines. My name is Pete Hulme and I was born and brought up in Bolton, though I now live near Portsmouth in Hampshire. I've been researching my genealogy since my mother died three years ago, though my efforts have been a bit patchy. My main interests are in HULME (obviously), FIELDING (my mother), WHITLOW (my father's mother) and WHITTAKER (my mother's mother) though I've been actively chasing Middleton and Stackhouse from my mother's side and Atkinson from my father's My current focus projects include trying to pick up my Hulme's in Bolton in first half of the 19th century (see my earlier post), working out which of two Thomas Middleton's in Dent at the end of the 18th century is my ancestor and trying to track my Whitlow line back from Whitley in Cheshire around the turn of the 18th century. Obviously I have lots of other lines "on the go" but these are my focus items. I'm more than happy to share any information that I have and I do have my tree up on Rootsweb if anyone wants it. I'm looking forward to participating in this lively community. Cheers, Pete Hulme

Hi Pete I noticed one of your names was Atkinson. Would that be a Bolton Atkinson? It is one of my family names of my fathers side. These Atkinsons owned a brewery in Commission St Bolton. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pete Hulme" <phulme@glasshouse.com> To: <ENG-LAN-BOLTON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, May 13, 2006 12:20 PM Subject: [ENG-LAN-BOLTON] Introduction > Hi everyone, I was pointed to this list by Martin Briscoe (thanks Martin) > and have posted a couple of questions that have been troubling me.
