Hi Doreen I am starting to look for my family history. My mothers surname was Worthington. Her parents were James Worthington b 1/3/1896 in Denton and his wife Hester Ratcliffe b 23/11/1897. James' parents were John Worthington and Sarah Lowe. My grandfather James came to New Zealand many years ago. Not much info but hopefully it may lead somewhere.
