Member Since: October 2005 Posts: 14 Send Message	Hi, I am trying to trace any descendants of my Father's cousin's Benjamin Oldroyd and his twin Brother Joseph. Born 1881 Netherton. I know that Benjamin's wife was known as Tilly and they had a daughter called Nellie. When Nellie got married, either her or her husband became the manager of a local coop. Possibly in the Dewsbury/Huddersfield area. I would also be interested to hear from descendants of Benjamin and Joseph's siblings James Oldroyd (Born abt 1875 Thornhill) and Edward Oldroyd (Born about 1877 Thornhill). Thanks David Oldroyd.
