Is anyone in your family doing research on their Gledhills? Ask them to get in touch with me. Give me their address.
All communications will be acknowledged.
Disclaimer: There are inconsistencies between a number of ancestral lines above and therefore there must be errors somewhere. I only report what's given to me. I do not vet for accuracy. How much is perfectly accurate in family trees anyway? Lloyd Gledhill
