It was great to see all your family photo's, I have many happy memories of my childhood growing up in Summerseat, I used to love going down to my Auntie Nellie's and especially when I was allowed to sleepover because uncle Jack would let us stay up late late and watch horror movies or tell us scary stories, then I would be scared for weeks when I was going to bed!! I can recall so many happy times with you all Christine of which I thank you for, hope you and all the family well Kind regards Ann Lee (nee Forrest)

Not only is this an easily accessible and very interesting website, but it is changing and enriched by someone who is obviously very involved with it. You can make a cup of tea and spend a restful hour visiting it in the evening, so much better than sitting in front of the TV - and more stimulating much more friendly!

An excellent website, what a pity there are not equivalent ones for other areas! Many thanks for all your hard work, it is much appreciated. I am currently researching my families, Hamer and Ainsworth, most of whom lived in and around Summerseat and Ramsbottom in the 19th century. My great grandfather Benjamin Ainsworth was a prominent member of the Wesleyan Chapel, so I would be very interested in the grave stones. My paternal great grandfather, Edwin Hamer, was manager at Lock Gate cotton mill. If anyone has any information about either of them, I'd love to hear from you.

Just came across your site when looking for information about Ann Frank. Was she related to many of the people in this cemetery.

This is such an excellent site. Thank you.

Five generations of my family, the Windles, worked at Brooksbottom mill from eighteen twenty to nineteen sixty.

I regularly read your articles and feel a real bond with the area through your research.

This spectacular site helped me find relatives my family has been searching for for half a century.
