Our New Forum:
A
new improved
Forum has now been added to
the EFHA web site. This is the
first stage of our web
development programme aiming to
improve
communication and research
resources
for our members. Members will
need to
Register to use this
Forum
with a
User Name
and
Password.
Save these in a safe place and
remember, these will be
different to your
Member Login details. Also,
remember this is an
Open Forum
- open to non-members as well as
members. At a later date we will
be adding more resources which
are entirely
member based,
allowing communication between
members-only, including
facilities to display and
exchange research and family
tree data.

The Loyd, Entwistle
Bank -
The private bank, Loyd,
Entwistle & Co, late of King Street,
Manchester, developed from a tea merchant's
business in Manchester. It's history can be
traced back to 1771. Acquired by the District
Bank in 1863, the bank was eventually owner by
the National Westminster Bank and subsequently
the Royal Bank of Scotland. The branch was
closed in the early 1990s.
Correspondence on Decimal
Coinage
The Entwistle
Family History Association (EFHA) is a registered member of the Guild
of One-Name Studies - Entwistle,
Entwisle, Entwhistle. A one-name study is a project researching
all occurrences of a surname, as opposed to a
particular pedigree (ancestors of one person) or
descendancy (descendants of one person or
couple). Some "one-namers" may
restrict their research geographically, perhaps
to one country, but true one-namers collect all
occurrences world-wide. The Guild only accepts
true one-name studies for registration, although
anyone with an interest in one-name studies is
welcome to become a member. Send us your
information on the Entwistles world-wide!
