You're Welcome Fred. Jenny I'm not sure what you mean. I hope the new site will be online soon so I can join in with the discussions on the boards.

Many thanks for that Philomena. Although speaking for myself, I am not European,I am not British, I am proud to be English and will remain so even if we stay in the EU, even though My dogs are called Cariad and Dafydd. In honour of my Welsh heritage, cos I'm half Wigan half Welsh!

Maybe I'm not really English after all when I think about it, but it hurts when I do think.

Philomena. Thanks for that.

Looking for relatives of Mary Jane Appleton, born 1862, married Hugh Robert Griffith in 1899, in Wigan. Had one son, Walter, married in Cardiff in 1926

i to am wondering when i can join the site .
i read all comments on the threads but cant yet join ..please advise when i can..

Fred I think they mean they can't become members. I can post on here but not on the web site boards but can read the Communicates and Forum boards. I am waiting to become a new member but nothing is happening, I believe Brian is a web developer it shouldn't take 3 yrs to sort a new site out, people have been waiting since the announcement of the new site was on it's way. What's the hold up?

I cant understand this.People say they can not get on this site.Yet they are on telling us about it.

Hello Linda, please check your emails

Great site, just love the banter, she should change her name to "bizzy"

I'm trying to trace any info on William James Davies who married Elizabeth nee Meadows back in 1917. He is shown on marriage certificate as living in Bolton St and as a Driver for Royal Field Artillery. He also worked in the mines. His father was John Davies. Any help would be greatly appreciated. When am I going to beable to join Wigan World?

Membership has been closed for a year or more. We were told 3 months ago that admin is working on a new site, and he has said that once its up and running then new members may be accepted.

Billie Joe survived, and he duly moved to the North West of England around late 1968. I will be singing in his honour on Saturday night. The Tallahatchie didn't take him; he made it home. He's been seen in Wigan, about two months ago. He may know that I'm over here for two weeks. He'll find me if he follows the road and stays out of the rain.

Hi, I have been trying to join this site for at least 2 weeks and keep getting a message something is not working and its being looked at, yet I still cannot join. Could someone contact me about joining please ?

I am mostly interested in the Civil War of the 1640's and its effects, I used to belong to Thomas Tyldesley's regiment of foote and have read about the battle of Wigan lane, Wigan had quite an eventful civil war and I would be interested in any views about a Prince Rupert statue for the town as he was made very welcome here I believe.
