Well, thank goodness you're not banned from this list Gordon - I have never found you anything but helpful to all our members. Marged Hi Marged Betty and I have been stumbling across each other on a variety of Rootsweb mailing lists (mostly the Mariners) for many years, and I believe she is in fact already aware of my 'loose' connection to her TROUGHTON ancestral line. However, this post from her last January on the Cheshire list (from which I am now, incidentally, also banned for life, along with three of my other 'home-town' lists viz the Liverpool, Birkenhead and Lancsgen) :- >One set of my ancestors was a LEWIS man from Shropshire County marrying >a TROUGHTON lady from Cheshire County, and they probably married in >Lancashire County ~1825 suggests that she might not be aware of this marriage, freely available on the search.labs site :- 2 January 1826 Liverpool St Anne Richard LEWIS and Elizabeth TROUGHTON Best regards Gordon From: "Marged" <marged36@btinternet.com> To: <eng-merseyside@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2010 7:59 PM Subject: Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] - CHILD-MIGRANTS-UK >Gordon, I've been reading posts about this family for years.
