Please could you help me research my family tree.
My family was originally from the Kendal area, moved to the Bacup area and then the Rochdale area of Lancashire where I was born in 1961. However I have lived in Carlisle since 1992, where I have brought up my own family.
The earliest known relative that I have any record of was Mr. John Henry Stables, who was my great grandfather and a polceman in Bacup, Lancashire. I once found that a Stables was on the roll of honour in Kendal Town Hall as he was injured in Mesopotania whilst working for Kendal Town Council. I believe that my ancestors came from somewhere such as Stavely or Mintsfoot. Can anybody help me. I can be contacted via e-mail geoff.stables@virgin.net Thank You, G.Stables.
