NEWMy name is Norman Shelley and I am hoping to trace a long lost cousin who settled in your charming town after her wedding in - I think 1971/72. Her name before her marriage was Veronica Roberta Hewit, unfortunately I do not know her married name. She is one of the three children of Austin and Johanna Hewitt of Blackpool, the other two being Robert and Della.. Our Family became somewhat fragmented for whatever reasons in times past. It would be nice to reconnect if only by email. Hopefully I will make contact, but if anyone reads this posting and remembers Veronica, I would be pleased to hear from them.email avalondistance@yahoo.co.uk Telephone from UK 001 941 244 22 Norman Shelley Sarasota Florida |

NEWHello, I have been directed to your site by someone who lives in the area, after I asked her about Poulton-le-Fylde. My family tree contains a number of members who were born in Poulton-le-Fylde (or 'Patton Thylde' as one of them wrote it). I wonder if there are any Salthouses still in the area, as my father's family grow ever larger going back in time! Thank you Helen Salthouse hsalthouse@yahoo.com |

Hello, I have just been looking on the Poulton Le Fylde Historic and Civic Society and wondered if you or possibly one of your Members could please help me? I am researching the Collinson family, andĀ have managed to get back as far as Christopher Collinson marrying Alice Hull in 1716 in Poulton Le Fylde. Christopher and Alice are my 6 x great grandparents. My initial link to the Collinsons in Poulton Le Fylde is John Collinson, who was born there in 1776. He moved to Heaton, near Lancaster, and married Betty Sowerbutts at the Parish Church thereĀ in 1799. As far as I can trace back, John was the youngest of five children, his siblings being Christopher, Grace, another John (who I guess died?) and Betty. John's parents were Robert Collinson and Ann Singleton and Robert's father was Christopher, born probably around 1700. Any information anybody could give me would be much appreciated.
