HI JIM, MY PARTNER IS A BYROM FROM LANCASHIRE. I AM CURRENTLY DOING THE FAMILY TREE AND THE AREA YOU NEED TO BE LOOKING AT IS WINWICK, LEIGH, NR WARRINGTON

Thank you, Helen! Many of my Ancestry messages are old. I have done quite a lot of research on the Byroms here in America. They and related families have a long history in the United States, going back to the original Byrom emmigrants in the late 1600s. If you colleague is interested in his American long lost relatives, I would enjoy corresponding. I can be most easily reached by email, LuTeaPrin@aol.com. Gary Kuschnereit

There are many Byroms still in Lancashire, but I must warn you that they are not very communicative. I am part of the South African Byroms, descended from Alfred John Byrom, who went to South Africa circa 1904. When I came to live in England I wrote to every Byrom in the Liverpool phone book (where Alfred was born; about two dozen names), but received not a single reply! I have been totally frustrated trying to link up with Byroms in this country, who seem to have little or no interest in genealogy. Good luck, is all I can add.

Not all 'Lancashire Byroms' live in Lancs. I, for instance live in Northamptonshire. But I am part of the Winwick Byroms

Looking for a copy of Henry Byrom of Parr the gunsmiths) will or estate settlement.

Anyone have a full copy of it.

Thanks

Hi,

I was interested in the info on the Byrom Family. I am not a Byrom but was born and raised at Byrom HALL in Lowton, Near Warrington. My family still live close to Byrom HALL. I believe that an Edward Byrom is buried in the Local Church at Lowton St Lukes, and there used to be a pew in the church with the Byrom name on it. He was supposed to be related to the Byrom who wrote Christians Awake, a hymn. Byrom HALL has a priests hole above the Chimney breast and Oliver Cromwell once supposedly hid in it. This would make sense as he was supposed to have stabled his horses at Winwick, Warrington at some point. Judge Jeffries (the hanging Judge) was also rumoured to have stayed at the HALL. The house is supposed to be the 3rd on this site and the original Byrom's (not spelt this way) came over in 1066 with William the conqueror. My family were told that the HALL used to sit in approximately 5 square miles of land.

A member of the Byrom family once visited us from the US and was writing a book about the Byroms. I have a copy of it. He also had connections with a family at Kercel Cell, near Manchester. I hope this is of some interest to you.

Thank you The Info on Byrom Hall. It was very interesting. I am a Byrom and once lived in the area
Once again many thanks
