Hi, Jim, No James Aldred in Chowbent. Was he a tradesman, as this list only covers principal traders and householders? Also I mistakenly gave out that the 1829 directory covered Chowbent and Leigh, when in fact it only covers Bolton. Sorry about that.

Hello May, I have looked for William Knowles blacksmith and Jane Pilkington and found neither. I must apologise for mistakenly including the 1829 directory - in fact this only covers Bolton.

Hi Valeria, Could look up a JAMES ALDRED in Chowbent. This should be in the1818 directory. He should have a son, JEREMIAH. I have no idea of his wife's name.

Hello Valerie, I am looking for a Jane Pilkington (had a son, John) and William Knowles, blacksmith. (daughter was Esther Livesley Knowles). Thank you, May in So. Cal.

No Plimmer in the 1818 Directory. I'm afraid I have misled you by including the 1829 Directory, as this only covers Bolton. Sorry.

Pam (and anyone else interested), People are more than welcome to join any list they wish (as long as the listowner sees fit). Even though you are a Cowyed and most of your interest will be with the Bolton List you are more than welcome to stay as a guest of our humble little Leigh List. Visit whenever you can. DAVE

Hi Dave, Thanks for this, I will certainly be joining Val's list. PLEASE CAN I STAY ON YOUR LIST TOO? All the Very Best from Pam Clarke in Westhoughton. (Howfener)

Hi Gang, Just a quick word to let you know that there is now a Bolton List up and running. One of our members took the ball and ran with it and is now the proud owner of the Bolton List. Congrats, Val. (BTW, I would add some of the smaller parishes to your list of areas covered: i.e. Deane, Wingates etc.). You can sign up for the list version of the Bolton Mailing List here: ENG-LAN-BOLTON-L-request@rootsweb.com I believe that there is also a Newton-le-Willows list in the works for those interested in that area. Watch this space for further information on that list. Keep the messages coming. DAVE

Hello Listers,> > I have now acquired the above directories, so if anybody wants a look up just ask. Valerie
