Elaine,
If you haven't already found this site I recommend you explore it
http://www.grimshaworigin.org
This site was set up and is maintained by Tom Grimshaw in Texas. It is now
very large and includes many pedigrees.
Another site http://www.lan-opc.org.uk (Lancashire On line Parish Clerks
project - free to access and search -lists Baptisms, Marriages & Deaths in
Lancashire Parishes. Not all parishes included yet but site grows monthly
so well worth checking. As the Grimshaws originated in east Lancashire
records from Blackburn and Church list many of them.
Good Luck
Mavis Long
