This blog aims to bring alive the family history information I have been given with records from Ormskirk Church, Mawdesley and Croston as far back as 1558. Many thanks go to relatives Jonathon Hopper, UK & especially Anthony Brown, Australia for all of the research they have undertaken and to Andy Scarisbrick for his significant support.

Regional distribution of the name Ainscough
Many thanks to my cousin Mike's daughter Nicola Ainscough for this link to the National Trust Names Website........"which presents the findings of a project based at University College London (UCL) that is investigating the distribution of surnames in Great Britain, both current and historic. It allows users to search the databases that we have created, and to trace the geography and history of their family names...."
As Nicola pointed out many of the Ainscough Clan havent migrated far from their roots!
