Find Ancestors

hi dave, sorry to have taken so long [see above-hubby still in doghouse) sorry no trace of that name, most entries are earlier than that for that area, sue.

Thanks Sue - that really helps! I've found references to a James Farraday married to an Isabell Waller, who may be Christopher's mother - the dates look roughly right. I think this is the origin of the name Waller in my family (it eventually becomes a first name in the 20th century). Although with so many other Wallers about, you never know...

hannah, isorry for delay [blame my hubby !!!] am now on the old computer and a second hand monitor i bought today. the insurance people dont rush , do they !!! THINK i might have found him, but date is a bit out. ingleton baptisms. christopher waller farraday, son of james farraday. 7 oct 1792 under ingleton there were 262 entries for waller . i think the reason is that a john waller and william waller were both curates and james waller was a chapel warden. john waller was the curate at christophers baptism, maybe thats why they gave him that middle name.[?] also found............ ingleton baptisms margaret dau of james farraday 12 oct 1788 rebecca dau of james farraday 9 may 1790 elizabeth dau of james farraday 24 may 1795 also found james taylor[ clapham parish, farmer] married margaret farraday [widow] 29 aug 1812. one of the witnesses was a rebecca farraday. i wondered if margaret was james widow and rebecca was the one born in 1790. will have another look , if i do find anything else will let you know, hope this helps, sue.

HI SUE would be very grateful if you could please look for PETER TITLOW born HALIFAX YORKSHIRE in 1830,thats if halifax is on your parish records for 1800's i would be really over the moon if you came up with any info on my grt grandfather. thanks sue

Thanks Sue, Have just found out that Christopher Waller Faraday's wife may be called Elizabeth, although I still have no other details. I hope this will help to track them down.

Hi Sue I'm searching for the father of Joseph Greenwood Bland born 1826+/-10 probably in North Bierley. He may have been plain old Bland and married a Greenwood we are not sure when the Greenwood's first made an apearance. Shame is my grandfather dropped it from dad's name. Best regards xx Dave

hi hannah, i have got some records for ingleton. will search the different spellings for you tomorrow, sue.

Hello Sue, I would be grateful if you could find any information on a Christopher Waller Faraday christened in Ingleton around 1792 (particularly birth/marriage), and James Faraday born around 1756, Ingleton - if your records cover Ingleton of course! Faraday is often spelt Farraday/Farady/Farrady or with one or two 'e's instead of 'a's. Any help would be very welcome - I've got stuck on this one. Hannah

Many thanks Sue Iam sure it will be of use . there will be a connection if Iget back far enough

hi ronald. although this isnt the name you asked for, there is only one entry for the 'freeston' surname on ALL of the disc. it must have been quite an unusual name, so it might turn out to be some use to you later. st mary's, nottinghamshire.-marriages. john freeston <M> sarah ogden. 2 sept 1799. hope this helps at some point, sue.

Hello Sue Dont know if your records cover nottingham, but if they do, could you have a look for Joseph Freeston. Born c1822 at Hyson Green, Nottingham. Many thanks Ron

Hi Sue, thank you for the reply. No don't bother with the marriages thanks as he took his stepfather's name. Marian

hi marian, i only have rotherham marriages [1540- 1837] there are 4 or 5 entries for william milner , possible relations, do you want them anyway ? in total there are 60 marriage entries in rotherham between the above years for that surname. sue.

Hi Sue, please could you check Rotherham for me and see if there is a William Milner b 1832/3? Thank you, Marian

Thanks for trying Sue - Regards - Gordon

Goodness, I wouldn't have a clue Sue! Main church in Knottingley seems to be St Botolph's, and Knottingley is often linked to Pontefract I gather. Is that any help?? Thanks - Gordon
