Swales from N. Yorkshire (Whitby, Goathland area)
I would be interested to hear from anyone who think they might be linked to my family. My earliest ancestor (John Swales who married an Elizabeth Wedgewood in 1755) was from Farndale, later generations lived in Beck Hole (Goathland) where they were blacksmiths, then Whitby, Hartlepool and Stockton on Tees.
