Hi all

New page and some details for it

Hi all !

This is the new page for John Astley

I have had some interesting success with researching this man, one important element was the 2 "Copyright Free" books which came to light.
Any book published before 1920 is normally copyright free, and so this one is !!

Annals of Hyde and District
This one has pics if you download the PDF original

The pictures are pretty good, but if you download the plain text, it hasn't been proof read
I will search on the Project Gutenberg to see igf there is one that has been proofed already
