Excerpt from The History of the Parish of Garstang in the County of Lancaster, Vol. 1 N presenting to the members of the Chetham Society What I may call another Chapter in the History of Amounderness, I have few introductory remarks to make. The parish - of Garstang is - next to the pa'rlsh of Kirk ham - the largest in the hundred, and from its situation, antiquity and surroundings, it was thought that its records could not fail to yield much that would be interesting to the historian and genealogist. In this respect my hopes have been more than realized, as I venture to think the following pages will show. Every available source of information has been consulted, and no effort has been spared to exhaust the subject Without prlntlng What would be of little or no value. I am greatly indebted to many owners of land in Garstang and possessors of title - deeds and other manuscripts relating to the parish, Whose names Will be found in the foot notes of the History; but I am under special obligation to the following gentlemen, and I wish here to record my sense of it, viz: the Rev. Wilson pedder, m.a., vicar of Garstang; the Rev. W. Armit stead, of St. Thomas's, Garstang; the Rev. J. D. Banister, late incumbent of Pilling; the Rev. M.a., vicar of Filling; Lord winmarleigh; james nicholson. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
