I am researching the Duxbury Family which up to now seems to start from Burnley / Blackburn area of Lancashire. I have traced my Great Grandfather and have nearly confirmed my G.G.Grandfather.

I would love a copy of the any records of James and Thomas’s Birth, Christening, . This was prior to Certificates and Registration which started in 1837 I believe. The grey text is what I have added. The D.O.B with ? after them are only estimated and could be out by a year either way. I colour coded them because in our family there are so many James, Thomas and George it gets confusing sometimes. If Thomas is the one listed on the web site as being born in 1920 then this relates my part of the back as far as Ulf de Duxbury 1120 AD
