Two separate McLean families in the Dill Hall area is a coincidence, that's all.

I know another McLean family in Ossy, no relation to me. There's more of them about than you would first think.

Re: Mclean family

Nooope.

I'll bet it's not co-incidence...... I've been tracing the family tree for about ten years and believe me I've been up a few blind alleys and can smell a trail when when it's there!!

Re: Mclean family

In 1901 there was only one McLean family in Accrington. Most of us will be related. At some point.

I can feel a headache coming on with all this now. I'm off up the wooden hill too.

Re: Mclean family

No problem. It's a subject that can really hurt the old noggin' once you start looking at family relationships things can get confusing.... What's needed is for you to work out who your relations are are when they were born Then you can start tying events together.... so far I've traced back to 1781. If you can tie into my genealogy then there's at lot of work already been done!

Re: Mclean family

Have a look at the photo of a 1955 St Andrews school class. There is a McLean on it. I vaguely recall a Barbara Mclean and I think she lived up Dill Hall.
