Her father was Joseph Jackson and her mother Mary. I think
Joseph was born abour 1787. The family moved to Barnsley as
the 1841 census gives the family living in raywoods Row Barnsley,
but by this time Joseph was a widower. Sarah married William
Ellis and moved on again to Doncaster. can any one help please. |

Richard Jaques was born at Sawley in 1723, the son of John and
Alice (Stoney/Staney) Jaques. His parents soon died and he
was raised by his grandfather, Miles Jaques of 'Slenningford
and Knaresborough.' In the early 1740s, John married Ann __?__.
Her maiden name and their place of marriage is eagerly sought.
In the 1740s and 1750s Richard Jaques was a musician in Knaresborough.
At least three children were born Ann (birth information unknown),
Richard who died in infancy, and Richard born in 1751. In
1757 the family moved to Leeds, whereupon a great deal of
information has been gathered. Richard Jr. later adopted Lister
as a middle name, reason unknown. After becoming enormously
wealthy in London, Richard Lister Jaques came back to his
home on East Parade in Leeds and died there in 1806. His sister,
Ann, married Henry Baynes of Knostrop Hall. |

Bob Smith bobmotoguzzi@btinternet.com
I am trying to trace the Kelley (correct spelling) Family History.
I have been told that a Charles Kelley born in Dublin in 1860
+-2 years, He went with his Mother and Father to America at
the age of 2 years, finding life unacceptable in America they
returned 2 years
later to the UK and settled in Knaresborough. His Father may
have been a Tailor ? In around 1881 at the age of 21 he inherited
a sum of money and went to the Greenwich area of London. I have
traced all his children in London (all deceased) The 1881 census
has no records of any family members in Knareborough apart from
some Kelley's who I doubt are related. My feeling is that at
the age of 21 the family were in Ireland and so missed the census
records, Why did they choose Knareborough and not the native
Ireland? they must have dad relatives there, any help would
be gratefully appreciated. |

One of my ancestors apparently used to rent / own and visit
a house in Knaresborough known as Swinton House. His name
was Edwin Augustus Lawson, a publican from Liverpool whose
ancestors came from Yorkhire previously. He lived from 1861
to 1914, so he would have visited the town between the 1890s
and 1914 I would imagine. Can you offer any suggestions as
to how I might find out a) whether the house is still in existence
and b) further details about whether he actually owned it
and when. His wife (from 1901) was Ella Jeannette (nee Longton),
but I do not think she was the house owner as she owned her
own property in Liverpool.
Any help will be much appreciated. |

Paul Layfield paullayfield@btinternet.com
If anyone can help with the Layfield ancestry I'd be
pleased to know.
I know that John Layfield was born Gowthwaite Hall, Pateley
Bridge around 1800. He married Jane at sometime and moved
up to Coverdale by the 1820's (where or what doing I don't
know) .All his children were born there, but by 1840 he had
moved with his family and was innkeeper at the White Horse,
50 High Street Knaresborough for at least the next 20? years.
Meanwhile his son, John W, had moved to Harrogate to help
run the Crescent Hotel with his sister Maria (Seynor) by 1861
and his father John joined them.The family remained there
for the next 20 years before selling up and moving to Leeds
(what to do I'm not that sure). The rest of the saga I Know
as I have all the original records.
It would be great to get back to the 18th century so I
can follow at least one line that ended up in Otley, Wharfedale. |

My grandfather was Edward Pullen who was born on 9.10.1886 in

I think John &
Annie Elizabeth also had children called Annie, Thomas (who
was the oldest I think), Richard & George. Edward moved
to Keighley before my father was born in 1918. His wife was
Mabel Lund who was born Abbey Road, Knaresborough on 23.9.1887
- parents William and Mary Jane (nee Steward). I think William
and Mary Jane also had children called Richard and Roger and
a daughter, whose name I don't know. I have been unable to find
the marriages of John Pullen and Annie Elizabeth on St Catherine's
Index, nor have I have been able to find William Lund and Mary
Jane's marriage. I thought that it might be helpful if I found
them on the 1891 census, but I don't really know where to start.
Can anyone help please? My local Family History Society (Huddersfield)
doesn't have any census indices that cover the Knaresborough/Ripon
area where I believe these families lived. |
