Sean,
I am sorry to have taken so long before replying to your message. As the ARNFIELDs I have been studying are from around the New Mills area, I don't know anything relating to the Blackburn line. I have looked for ARNFIELDs in Lancashire on my 1881 CDs. There are some in Lancashire but none that seem to connect with yours.
If your father was born in 1942, then presumably your grandfather was also born in the early 1900s or possibly the late 1800s. I can give you some basic advice on how you might go about looking for him; I'm not sure from your posting whether that would help or not. As I have nothing specifically related to your ARNFIELDs to contribute at this stage, I will contact you outside the forum and we can discuss general genealogical research resources for Lancashire etc.
Best wishes,
Paul C. Sherlock
