Where We Are
Holmfirth where Holmvalley is situated is in the county of West Yorkshire
and it is
famous as the setting for the BBC television series 'Last of the
Summer Wine'. But it is also an area of outstanding natural beauty,
surrounded by the hills and close to the moors and The Dark Peak area of
Derbyshire. There are an abundance of walks in the vicinity, ranging
from easy to very tough. |
My Ancestors
My 'Middleton' and other ancestors have lived
around the Holme Valley for the past 500 years, so if you have a
Middleton as an ancestor in this area you are probably related to me
some how. The Middleton's from this neighbourhood have migrated to
other parts of the world, such as the USA and Australia. |

Genealogy
For those people interested in Genealogy or
Family History the local society is, 'The Huddersfield and
District Family History Society'. I was the Computer Data
Co-ordinator for that society and as such I looked after the society's
data and wrote software for the HDFHS and other societies. To learn
more about the HDFHS follow the link on the Genealogy menu. |
