Welcome to the website for Priestnall Genealogy, if you have been redirected from a linked site please change your bookmark to www.priestnall.com
This web site is dedicated to the research and
flow of information on the Priestnall surname and derivative
names.
Research originally started to prove the rarity
of this Cheshire based surname, and it now appears that what had
started out as a family tree study, has increasingly become a one name
study.
I have amassed a vast number of records, but due
to the nature of my research, my records have become increasingly date
sensitive, with the emphasis on gathering data for others to use in their
research.
It is my intention to continually add pages to
this site which will include direct and indirect links to the information
that has been gathered from both my own research and similar research
from other genealogical colleagues with interests in the same family name.
The intention is to spread such information amongst all interested parties.
Many thanks go to my fellow researchers who have
supplied me with many leaves to put on the tree and without their help
these pages would suffer. If you find information which is useful to your
own research, please email me.
Personal users may use the information on this
site as you wish, subject to the conditions of use, and provided the usual
acknowledgements and references are made. No commercial use shall be made
of any of the information that appears here without the prior written
consent of the author.
If any of the information appears contradictory,
or you wish to add anything, please email me.
I look forward to hearing from fellow researchers.
Mike Matthews
