My Family

A Memory of Croston.

I remember going to Croston when I was very young, just having a walk round the lovely village and visiting the church. It was only a couple of years ago when I started to compile my family tree that I found out my Nanna's family on my dad's side were from Croston. In the mid 19th century my ancestors the Daltons were the blacksmiths of the village, I have since been back to take pictures of where they all lived and found their graves in the churchyard. It was nice to go and put flowers on the graves of my ancestors, when I'm there I always wonder what it was like living in those times.
