Member Since: April 2008 Posts: 3 Send Message	Recognise any or all of these names in your tree? My Ainscoughs are from Aspull , Youngs are from Westhoughton , Bonds are from second marriage of Hannah Young (nee Fletcher) and are in Chorley , Johnsons and Pearce are Grandparents. I would like to know more about these and anyone related to them.

	Look in 'search all trees' If you want help with research, post forenames, birth years and birthplaces How much research have you done yourself? http://www.freebmd.org.uk/ http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk/ http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ No point in anyone looking for that which you already know....................

	James, You need to look to see if any of these people are in anyone's tree on here, and then make contact with the tree owner. Use the Search/Search All Member Trees tab above right. It is best for you to try and make contact with others, not expect that many people will read your message on here., unfortunately.

	I posted the censuses just to give others some idea of time-scale..................you hadn't given any clues about it. To find living relations...............do the research Use freebmd.............follow-through on the names you know. Also, as advised above by myself.....and patchem......... ..............look in search all trees Also............ make sure that your tree is on GR
