Rothwells of West End
I have bought a book, published in 1905, which bears an owner's details:-
Dorothy B Rothwell , 402 Blackburn rd, West end, Ossie. I suspect she was a schoolgirl at some time after 1905. I am having enquiries made to see when the family lived there. I have asked one of this site's members called Rothwell but Dorothy appears nopt to be in that family. Anyone with family connections to this lady ? I want to give it a good home. |
Re: Rothwells of West End
Dorothy lived at that address in 1911 with her parents Frederick & Hannah and a brother . She was aged 8 years old at that time.
Over the years I have bought quite a few family bibles and bibles with inscriptions and just recently decided to try and reunite them with the owners or family members who are still around. For this I have used the Ancestry site and have been quite successful so far and on checking that site tonight there is a Family tree on there that states that Dorothy died in 1935 in the Accrington Area. I find it really sad sometimes that these sort of things end up for sale but sometimes people are interested in history and others not |
Re: Rothwells of West End
My thanks for this Anzac. It is an example of help and advice being freely available, given by people who like to help. I am in touch with the Hyndburn branch of the Lancashire Family History Society in the hope that one of their members can place this in a good home. I will have a look at Ancestry.
