Gerard Lodge has created a new web site that looks great. Gerard writes, "There is a lot of free information on this site for people with ancestors in Greater Manchester and Lancashire, UK. Amongst many, many pieces of information it contains the prison record entries of the Manchester Martyrs and their associates who were involved in the storming of the police van in 1867."
The home page of the new site states:
This is not your ordinary run of the mill family history or genealogy site, this is different. Stop what you are doing and settle down for a good read, you might even want to put the kettle on and make yourself a drink before exploring these pages. If you have an interest in Manchester in particular, and its surrounding area then this is the site for you. Bookmark this page, because you will want to come back and revisit this site. There is too much information to take in at one go, you will need to come back, again and again. The information on these pages, although Manchester based, can apply to many areas of family research. In these pages you can see many examples of my work, so read on, enjoy and let me extend a very warm welcome to my web site.
