:roll: I've got a little bogged down with all the names but, my great aunt Sarah(Cissie) Eastwood married a Willie Foster. Their D.O.B. would be around 1875, their only child was Rhoda, they lived in Harle Syke and moved to Brierfield around 1920 and Rhoda married about that time, they all moved to Blackpool and the present decendants say that gt. grandfather Willie was part of Fosters Mill. Any help to you or have I confused you as much as I have confused myself?
Hi Hannah,
I am very pleased to hear from you. This all fits in with my information. I have been hoping that one of the other Foster Brothers had some descendants.
I have information from Tom Foster (son of Willie who carried on the mill after his father Thomas Foster's, who was one of the Brothers, death) that a couple of the brothers went to Blackpool after leaving the mill and that they had daughters who probably married and had family.
If you look at my Foster family tree, which is on this site, you will find William Foster b 1876 marrying a Sarah (thanks for giving me her maiden name) and having a daughter called Rhoda in 1898.
I would be very grateful if you could put me in touch with the descendants. I will write to you privately with my email address.
Thanks and kind regards
Alison
