WHERE DID THE ORIGINAL ALLREDS COME FROM?

Those Original American Allreds:                                Where Did They Come From? By:  Linda Allred Cooper Fall 2017

 Tracing back to the mid 1500s, the Allreds were from the little village of Pendleton (sometimes called
Pendleton Poole).  On today’s map, Pendleton is part of the City of Manchester (also called Greater
Manchester or Manchester Proper).  You may have heard the Allreds were from Eccles or Eccles Parish.
That is partially true.  They lived in the little village of Pendleton but attended church services and their
births/baptisms, marriages, deaths/burials are recorded in the Eccles Parish Records.   Eccles Parish’s church,
St. Mary The Virgin, was built around 1100, around the time of William the Conqueror.

The graves, however, were beyond repair.  The graveyard was turned into the grassy park you see today. Some of the tombstones, those not too badly damaged, were used as pavers for the sidewalks.
