Tameside Family History

MR DUCKENFIELD COMES TO DUKINFIELD

A summation of my research into the Dukinfield Family and their links to Slavery in Jamaica and North Carolina and the Duckenfield family's visit in July 2019. An exciting story involving pirates, slaves, the lost colony of Roanoke Island, and the Eaton Family's foundation of New Haven, Connecticut. Plus the links to the Friends of Old Hall Chapel in Dukinfield and their aim to preserve the Chapel as a Preserved Ruin. CLICK HERE OR ON THE TITLE
