Did your ancestors work on
the Railways?
Were they in the Iron & Steel industry?
Were they in Lime Stone Quarying?
Were they in this part of Lancashire?
Well....
We just might have some news for you,
CARNFORTH was a place where most of the
people woked, either
on the Railways,
or in the Iron & Steel plant.
On
Saturday 9th of April
at Carnforth Railway Station
Platform 1
we are joining with our friends in
Cumbria and Furness to help you with your
family history
research.
Lancashire Certificate Services and
The Lancashire Library Services
will be on hand,
together with
the greatest selection of helpful books and
aids on Genealogy,
thanks to Terry Walsh
and the ‘Family History Partnership Book
