Awhile ago there were emails regarding a family named Pilkington. I didn't keep the email as I had nothing to offer but it occured to me later that I know someone with the family name of Pilkington. I mentioned this to him and he would be interested to know if there is a connection to him. Could someone remind me of the names and dates and locations so that I can let him know.
