The Black Bull - Egremont by Ally Greig (Member 10212726) on 21-Aug-2007
About 7-8 years ago I was working at Sellafield and during this time I was staying in Egremont. I used to drink in the Black Bull and got friendly with Emma who ran the bar and also Kerry who worked and stayed there. Unfortunately I have lost contact with them so I was wondering if anyone knew of there whereabouts as I was hoping to get back in touch with them.
Thanks in advance.

    Hi Karen,

    I just read this one too, sorry. I recognised the name Charge, they're my Mum's cousins. Rosamondal Isabel you mentioned, changed her name to Isabelle Rosamondal. My mum spent a bit of time with her Aunty Belle. My mum has some memory of Belle cutting her hair for cutting some blinds or something, though she doesn't remember doing it.

    I think Mum mentioned a boy with the last n... more >>

    Hi,

    Sorry I've taken so long to reply, life has been well not the greatest and I just forgot about this until now. Will look at this when I get home as I'm at work.

  • Re: Benn Family by Lesa (Member 10157369) on 26-Aug-2006
    I forgot to say, you seem to be saying Margaret Glaister's mother is Margaret also. I've got Margaret's death certificate and her mother is listed as Violet Kellick. I could be misunderstanding though.

    Thomas Glaister b. circa 1711 in Burgh-by-Sands, Cumberland married Mabel Hutton 17 Aug 1739. They are my ancestors. Do we have a connection? Gail

  • Re: Benn Family by Lesa (Member 10157369) on 26-Aug-2006
    Hi Gail,

    I'm still looking into this side, sorry for late reply, as I said in previous one there's just been to much stuff going on in my life to deal with. I'm back on track though. If I find a match will let you know, it's entirely possible given the name and same area.
