The story of the Loftus 3 Line

William Farndale was born in 1849 and was an ironstone miner who had six children. His children lived mainly around Egton and west of Whitby.

There is another Loftus family, probably related to Sarah Annie Farndale (1870 – 1945) who are included here, but a separate family to William Farndale’s descendants.
