I am tying to tace John Hartley. I have scant infomation but I believe him to have been born somewhere between 1920 & 1930. He died before 1986 but probably after 1970. I believe that he may be buried in the churchyard at St.Mary's Gosforth. He was a farmer or perhaps farm labourer in the lake district around Wastwater/Whitehaven area.

First of all, if I have inadvertently contravened the etiquette of this site, then may I offer my sincere apologies. It was never my intention and I was only trying to get as wide coverage as poss of my request. Shirley, I am sending you a personal message I hope you receive it via your mail box.

Received your pm and thank you . its not site etiquette that has been contravened its actually the terms and conditions of the site not to double post.
People who do look ups read ALL the boards so the enquiry can be picked up from any of them.
