the quickest way to find anyone on the lan-opc site is to use the search facility - the last option on the LH side. That way you do not need to know the parish. If you need any more help come back to us with a name and maybe something can be found to help

Researching:
Liverpool (Cartwright, Chambers, Miller), Todmorden (Sutcliffe, Mallison), Abergavenny (Watkins, Prosser)
