CD-ROM & DVD-ROM

At the 2006 Barlow-Cooley Reunion in Ulverstone I released the first version of a family CD-ROM. Tony Hope - DVDThe new edition for 2010 didn't quite get done so perhaps next year!.

After the 2008 family reunion, Tony Hope produced a fabulous DVD containing footage from a variety of family reunions held since 2000.

Web sites

An excellent source of information that helped determine what William Barlow's life must have been like when he was Master of the Bishops Stortford and St Marylebone Workhouses was Peter Higginbottom's website Workhouses a site dedicated to providing information about workhouses in the United Kingdom.
