Dear fellow researchers, I am, for obvious reasons - including friendly pressure from relations in Australia, CANADA and USA - seeking the origins of the Yarwood family, especially that branch of the Yarwoods who lived in Birmingham, Warwicks, England and in neighbouring Worcestershire between 1750 and 1997. I have a lot of data on them and other Yarwood in this country and abroad. I have made good progress back to the mid 18th Century but am still looking for the origins of John Yarwoods family of Birmingham. William Yarwood in particular. The family is well established in Cheshire and there seem to be connections to the Holte Family of Aston, Birmingham and Brereton, Cheshire but I have been unable to make the leap. Anyone interested in or with data about the Yarwoods who would be willing to exchange please get in touch. Colin Yarwood
