Hi Alan, I am sending this to list & you so it will go in the archives. Thanks for the info re Thrussel Hall. Crozier is also in my family tree, although probably not the same one. Mine is on my maternal side as follows; Mine is BILL CROZIER, when he was born or any other info. on him I don't have (birth. place, baptism,death, marriage, mother/father siblings, etc) someone told me he worked at Binns in Sunderland. He was married to my maternal g'father (Thomas) sister Lizzie when & where I also don't know. As far as I know their children were Derek & MarySorry my info. is very spotty that's all I have. Regards, Malcolm (C) The farm on the left of the lane was Myrtle Bank and on the right was Throssel Hall/ Thrush Hole / Thrush Hall / Throstle Hole. Both Myrtle Bank and Throstle Hole are now part of the Buddhist Abbey – Myrtle Bank provides accommodation. The Crozier family – Jane and her son Thomas – were in ‘Thrush Hall’ from 1881 to 1911. I would be interested if anyone can provide information on this family.
