Tracing my Roots

I traced my ancestors to Eckington - they were the Littlewood Family and date back to 1798. The males were all named Joseph in each generation and they worked as first a farmer and then they worked in Applebys Foundry as iron moulders and brass moulders. My Great Grandma Ellen Littlewood delivered me in Wombwell where she lived until her death in 1971 and she told me about Eckington and I was delighted to find relatives in Eckington cemetery & Eckington churchyard. I am still searching and would be glad of any information.
