Hi Andrew and Jean, Thank you to both of you.Andrew l am curious as to where your Verdon family are.l have two brothers,one incumbent as St Annes' in Tottington,Edward,and his brother is William,incumbent at Holy Trinity,Salford.They are both born in Dublin.There is also another brother , Thomas K.De Verdon,who was an Independant Minister in Surrey then London.Send me an email privately if you like if your Verdons are not in Manchester.l did have those IGI records and R.E.Verdon whom you found in fleetwood is son of Edward Verdon above,therefore cousin of Henry Walter Verdon whom l am searching for in 51 and 61.l do have quite a bit of information re Verdons so contact me. Jean,thanks for that area descrption.Funny isnt it,seems that Manchester Grammar is also very near where my husbands' Pendlebury family lived.l also checked and feel that Henry Erlam may just be Henry Verdon.Otherwise l should be able to find him,Pauline.
