The BURLEY and SWINBURN(E) families of Nottinghamshire


The information and pictures on this page have been contributed by Dianne Sims following her research into the history of the BURLEY and SWINBURN(E) families in the North Wheatley, and surrounding area, of Nottinghamshire.

Following the family tree, there are some photographs which were sent across the Atlantic as momentos, at some point following the family's emigration in the early 1850s. The one marked "John W. Swinburne cousin England" is not him, but probably a cousin of his. Any help in identifying the dates of these pictures this would be greatly appreciated.
