I can connect the SINGLETON family with Broughton Tower from 1216 and they were buried in Broughton church until it became protestant at the time of the reformation (c.1530). Singletons are still being buried at St. John the Baptist,Broughton [I take it you mean Broughton near Preston] a church that has [probably] existed from the 12th century. I have printed copies of the burials of Broughton between 1653 and 1803 [as well as Bapts and marriages]. If you need any infomation from this period, you only need ask. A. Anderson
