A family in Cleator Moor have welcomed the fifth generation of their family as their great great grandchild was born. 

Oakley Rooney was born this spring to his mother Lauren Dunn, now making five generations of the same family all together. 

Great great grandmother, Josie Pilkington, 87, of Cleator Moor said: "He's a wee star. We couldn't be happier, we're absolutely delighted. He's such a lovely little boy and we all cherish him so much."

Josie was born on February 20, 1935 and her daughter Teresa Pilkington was born on February 23, 1958. 

She then gave birth to her son Craig Dunn in 1976 and Craig's daughter Lauren was born in 1997. 

Oakley Rooney was then born in February of this year much to all of the family's joy. 

Great great grandmother Josie now has ten grandchildren, eleven great grandchildren and now one great great grandchild.
