I AM researching the Birt-wistle family, and looking for a Stephen Birtwistle, b 1959, and his brother Andrew b 1965.
They were born in the Amounderness district of Lancashire.
Their parents were Duncan b 1920 in Blackburn, and Eileen Larkin. They married in 1952 in Amounderness. Duncan died in 2000.
I am researching the family for someone who has written a book about his father and his godfather, William Birtwistle b 1890 in Blackburn. William was well known at the director of fisheries department in Singapore.
I found that Stephen and Andrew Birtwistle have family connections to William Birtwistle. If anyone can help, please contact me at lesley.p. stanley1@sky.com Lesley Stanley (via email).
