Gees in Ludworth, Glossop
This page shows my Gee ancestors in the Ludworth area of Glossop in Derbyshire, England. Most of the research has been my own but I must acknowledge the help of colleagues in some areas. All being well the analysis is accurate but if there are mistakes then they are mine alone and I apologise. Like everyone else, I'm human (honest) so please use this list as it is intended and check back against the original documents to be sure. Happy hunting.
