Hi Andy,
I'm hoping this gets to you - it was such a long time ago you started this thread...
I am a descendant of William Loxley b.abt 1825, father of your William Loxley. I am the great great great granddaughter of his son Arthur George Loxley b.1856 who was also a stone mason. I'd love to hear how you got on with your research.
Many thanks,
Louise
