Could someone do a lookup for a James Ashworth please. I don't know a great deal about him apart from that he was born 1859/60 in Accrington and his father was also James. Thanks for any help. Tracey, Bolton.

Thanks Jackie but i think he may be too old to be my James. I'm sure he was married in 1878 to a lady called Ellen Sutcliffe. Cheers. Tracey
