RESEARCH
COMMITTEE
The purpose of the Research Committee is four-fold:
1.
To continue research in original source documents in
Lancashire: to correct and extend information on the family line
and background of George Haworth the Emigrant.
It follows that any and all researchers in this area should ideally first
contact this committee chairman to see what records have already been examined,
so as to avoid wasted time, effort and money.
2.
To continue to liaise with Stephen Howarth on the Y-DNA
Haworth/Howarth surname project.
3.
To provide assistance to those who enquire about their
Haworth/Hayworth/Howarth lines: whether or not the goal is to
connect to George Haworth the Emigrant, and whether in the U.S. or in Europe.
The aim is to find facts in original documents that will set
the enquirer on the right research path.
4.
To continue research in original source documents that will enhance the accuracy
and completeness of the information in “Some Quaker Families”.
Volunteers are welcome, especially those who could
help with the many enquiries received via our website, and who have access to
the major online resources (census records;
Ancestry.com; “Some Quaker Families“).
The chairman proposes that she keep a roster of those
volunteers, to consult when an enquiry is forwarded to her by the webmaster.
