Hello Peter, All,
i was just reading the group posts properly. Do I take it from Peters note above about Upholland and Standish that these parishes look to be the origin of surnames of all the people in this S6881 group except me?
I am just very curious to note that the next town to Upholland is Orrell (first recorded as Horul it seems). My family can trace back pretty far in Devon (at least to 17th C with some records from 14C)? but I'm really intrigued now that maybe our name originates in Lancashire with our common ancestor
