Hi, most of my family history is from the Burnley area of Lancashire.  

The Briercliffe Society is very helpful if anyone is researching families from this area.

Hello and welcome to our website and forum.      

The corner of Preston New Road and North Road is where the society meets ever month.

Thanks for posting about this interesting website, I've had a quick scan of it and will add it to my favourites as my children's grandparents came from this area.  

I hope you're successful in your search for more information on the Leaver family.    

Dotty

Hi Dotty,

Thanks for the warm welcome!

What names from the Burnley / Briercliffe area are you researching?

This is great forum by the way!

Off the top of my head...NEWTON & WILSON but I'll have to have a good rummage in the archives as I've been busy with my lot for years!

Like Dotty I am recalling off the top of my head but when I was a lad in the early sixties there were regular articles in Cycling magazine by a Harold Briercliffe. He often wrote about Wild Boar Clough and other Northern delights so he must have been a Lancs. man.
