Iam looking into my family tree and was wondering if anyone remembers these surnames Welch, Bretherton or Laidlow.
Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Forum Wendy.
Which Brethertons are you looking for?
There are many branches in the Leyland
area.

Keih Welch used to live behind me on Westfield Dr and his brother was called Alan Bretherton with hindsight he was more likely to be his half brother. They were into tropical fish and had loads of tanks in a massive cabin ! Unfortunately I havent seen any of them since the 80s ! I knocked around with Keith mostly on Stannings Estate when they were building it !

Yes we all have same mum but keith and allan got same dad even though for some strange reason they called keith 'welch' he was actually bretherton. Keith is on facebook I have just sent him a message on there saying you had responded to my question, best if you let me know if you are on then he can find you his profile is hard to find and he is rubbish on laptops etc. He as been married for 26yrs and as 4 children 1 girl 25 and 3 boys 20-7-5 i think that young uns ages. I have only been talking to him the last few months and that the first time for about 18yrs. After we moved to preston our mum died few months later and we drifted apart, tried getting together afew times but not good. Dont speak to Allen I think he still lives in leyland but not sure were.

Come to think of it I have seen Allen a couple of times but not to talk to ! I am on Facebook so might be easier for him to look for me ! So do you not remember us ?
