I am researching the name Mawdsley, they came from Kirkby in Lancs and I am sure that in such a small place as it would have been in the 1840-60, many of the residence of that name could be related. I would like to get hold of a street map of Kirkby for around about that time. Would there be such a thing and if so where would I get it??? Kathlyn

If you go onto family search and check counties, Lancashire - then Kirby there are many Mawsley's listed, if you check the batch numbers you will find out who the parents are of the children and that may help you piece together your family members. Good luck Irene
