Are You Related To The Bury Family From Church Area

HI, wonder if this rings any bells to anyone out there?


I am interested in tracing any descendants of John Bury, GGGf, born 1797, died 1842. Used to have a chemical works in Church. Was a staunch baptiist (buried Macphelah). Had 8X children, I believe.

One was Henry Bury, Antley Villa, and another Abraham Bury, who had a son called Herbert (Bishop Bury). My GGF was Benjamin Bury, JP, died 1916. Was told by my father that he was related to Arthur Smith Bury, JP, onetime Mayor of Accrington, but can't find any link. He used to live at Arden Hall (House?).

thanks

Maybe not the link you were looking for but I came across this:

BURY, Lt. John (East Lancs. Bde., Royal Field Artillery); b. 4th August 1893, s. of Alderman Arthur Smith Bury, J.P. and Amy Althea Bury of Arden Hall, Accrington; k.i.a. 5th July 1915 (21); comm. Helles Memorial, Gallipoli. [2, 3, 4, 22, not listed on 1]

The memorial will be posted on the commonwealth war graves web site.
