There are obviously a huge number of local publications from yesteryear which are no longer in circulation but which are still held as family heirlooms. They will be of immense interest to both local and family historians and should be made available to a wider audience.

Darrell Latimer, living in Edmonton, Canada has a few such publications relating to Goodshaw Parish in Rossendale and has been painstakingly transcribing parts of this material. Hundreds of individuals mentioned in these publications are listed. See if your ancestor(s) are among them!
Darrell has kindly agreed to allow this material to be included here on the 'Goodshaw' pages.
