Dear All

As one of the 66 subscribers, I am keen to help and be helped by as many as
I can.

I am descended from several lines of Quakers - including Thistlethwaite of
Dent, Binns of Keighley, Harris and Lamb of Sibford (Oxon) - all from 17th
century Quaker communities and also from the Atkin's of Woodhouse,
Sheffield.

However the main strand of my researches has been directed towards a study
of Quaker families who have been linked through a common experience of
education at Quaker Schools. I have a large database of information gathered
from secondary sources about families connected with Ackworth School
(Pontefract, Yorks) - I would be happy to try and help anyone with queries
in this direction and would be particularly pleased to hear of families with
Ackworth School connections.

For those who are interested in the Quaker Family History Society conference
at Woodbrooke (March 18th) - I am the conference organiser and can report,
to date, that bookings are already about 30 - please get in touch if you
want to know more about it.

Best Wishes - Michael Hargreave
