Find Ancestors

Hi Debby, Ive got your Haxby's. Hubby is there and alot more siblings. Saved the image for you, let me know your email address and i will send it for you. Have had a quick look through Eccleshill and havnt found a David Taylor there but there was a household that had a Harriet Taylor as head aged 33 and with some children. Could she be yours? Regards, Claire

Hi Claire, You kindly did a lookup for me in Alverthorpe. There was a Mary Goodyear there who's maiden name I believe was CAWTHROW. According to the census info, she was born in what looks like Claton Bart which must be in the Wakefield area. Could you possibly look for her father, JOHN CAWTHROW, there in 1851? He may have been a miner. There are various spelling variations of Cawthrow. Many thanks, Lilian

Hi Lilian, I will look for your John Cawthrow for you but where is Claton Bart? Ive looked on the Wakefield disk and no area called that. Ive googled the name and it doesnt bring up anything at all. Glad you got the Alverthorpe Goodyear census images. Im just over the moon now 1901 Yorkshire is on ancestry so can finally get a little futher with my lot as well. Regards, Claire

Hi Claire, I don't know where Claton Bart is either. It was where Mary Goodyear said she was born. She married in Wakefield so I guess it wasn't too far away. Presumably it was mistranscribed. I've just found a Clayton which is 13 miles from Wakefield, 8 miles from Doncaster and Barnsley. When you have time could you please have another look? Thanks, Lilian

Hi Lilian, Im really stuggling to find this place where Mary was born, ive had another look at the census for her and it looks like C.... Ward but i dont think it says Clayton. Ive gone through all the areas of Wakefield and there is nothing that resembles it at all. Ive checked Doncaster and Barnsley as well and it doesnt show on there as well. Regards, Claire

Thanks for trying, Claire. Sorry to put you to so much trouble. I'll try to get some more information. Could you please do a couple of other lookups when you have the time? HANNAH PLOWS, father ROBERT. SAMUEL WATSON, father JOHN. Hannah and Samuel were married in Sherburn, Tadcaster in 1856 so presumably they were living there in 1851. many thanks, Lilian

Hi Claire Can you look at Richmond for me and see if there is a SIMON CHANDLER age about 51 yrs -- he could be an inn keeper. if so any of the family too. Many thanks Ann

Hi Lilian, Ive gone through the whole of Sherburn and neither of these two people are there, sorry. Regards, Claire

Hi Ann, Gone through all of Richmond and no Simon Chandler. regards, Claire

Hi all. Im off home to Sheffield for the weekend so if you want to leave me a request, feel free do so, but the earliest i can look at it now for you is Sunday teatime. Regards, Claire

Thanks for all your help, Claire. best wishes, Lilian

Claire Thanks so much for looking Ann

Hi Claire, I`ve not had 2 glasses of wine today !!!lol Would you please have a look on 1851 census for yorkshire for William Atack b 1822 and wife Mary Ann & Family.They should be living in and around Campsall/Norton/Stubbs Walden/Hemsworth area-Its about a 10 mile radius if I remember rightly. Also in the same area William Atack b 1789 & Wife Mary-this is the father of the above.Could you send the images if you find them please? Thanks & Best wishes Diane

Hi Claire Me again! Thanks for finding the Haxbys - sorted his name out - think it's Robert - my ggg grandfather so thanks for that (plus some other children I didn't know about!) I've had another look at Harriet - she's 54 on the 1871 (matches the age nearly that you have) and a widow for the 2nd time so David her first husband could possibly have died if she's showing as the head. Much appreciated Debby

Hi Diane, Ive got your Atack families in Stubbs Waldon. Got the images as well. Have emailed them to you. Enjoy. Regards, Claire

Hiya Ickle Could you please try and find George Redfearn and his wife Jane. They married in February 1851 in the Parish Church, Leeds. George was born in Birstall in 1826 - so would be 25ish Jane was born in Leeds in 1827 - 24ish I am guessing they will either be in Birstall or Leeds. Sue

Hi Claire, Wonderful!! Thank you so much it was a lovely way to start a dreary monday morning! Take care Best wishes Diane

HI, I would be very grateful if you could find 2 families living in Cawood. Grainger......were living in Sherburn St Cawood in 1861 John Grainger would be abt 23. Hopful he is living with some family ?!?! Render.......not sure of an address John would be abt 1 Another John abt 34 maybe married to Mary. Plus any other Renders or Graingers would be wonderful Thank you!!

Hi Debby, Ive gone through Eccleshill and cannot find a David Taylor at all so i have emailed you the widowed Harriet Taylor to see if she is yours. Regards, Claire

Hi Jonothon, The Deighton you want, is it Kirk Deighton? If so, ive gone through there and cannot find your family. I couldnt see any other Deighton's but please let me know if there is. Regards, Claire
