Great Sites to Visit


Home Base
; All Fazakerleys, (regardless of the spelling) should go here: Dave talked me into putting my material online. Great History. 

www.Fazackerley.co.uk (Changed Jan. 2004; Old address was www.Fazackerley.net)

 

Malcolm Hulme's website; Malcolm, a tireless researcher and author extraordinaire, has contributed a mountain of material for the Faz Database. Gulberwick is a small community in the Shetland Islands. (Unfortunately, his website is no longer available.)  

 

The following sites are highly recommended to visit.

 FAZMOS is a fascinating and entertaining place to visit; Coolest Coat of Arms I've ever seen. (Web site address change: updated 10/26/03).

A curious site: History of British Counties, and a lot of interesting sidelines, such as gardening and wildlife.  http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~jimella/counties.htm

Videos & films of the great Benny Hill; Why did I list him here? Well, two reasons: he's English and he mentioned our family name on one of his shows: 
www.vgernet.net/tpelkey/bennyhill
