Hi all Thanks for the magnificent response to my plea re the place name for Yorkshire Horrocks in Wigan. Certainly lots to think about- and look at, Horbury near Wakefield looks good on genuki- lots of mill workers in the parish record transcripts- no Horrocks though and the transcripts stop a couple of years before Marys birth. Also all the Norbury deviations will keep me busy. Thanks again- everyone has come up trumps! carol
