haryc 0 #1 Posted October 22, 2019 Good morning I wonder if anyone can help me please. I am trying to trace mention of a Copley family back in the 1790s. I have three (so far) children born to a John Copley but can find no more mention of them. Where would records for Birley Carr be kept? How big a place was it? Is there a family history group there or which is the nearest please? Any help would be appreciated as I live a long way away and am not familiar with the area. Kind regards Carol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
