Main interest in Mawtus family who settled in Minskip, near
Aldborough, in the late 16th Century, and were resident there
until the 1950's. Derived from Malthous; the earliest records
in Yorkshire are principally from the area around Fountains
Abbey in the 14th Century. From there families so surnamed spread
out all around the area to the south of Ripon. In Knaresburgh
and its Rulers, by William Wheater, is the following 'Samson
Ingleby, Sir William's fifth son, and Brynand his son-in-law,
were land grabbers......Among the placemen seeking gain are
the Langtons and the Tankards. Thomas Langton, yeoman "of
Haragat," who married Elizabeth Slingsby, aunt of Francis,
had a son Robert, 1560, a grabber in Feliscliff. In 1564, William
Tanckerde, Steward of the Court, and Christopher Mawtus, Clerk,
were kinsmen of the Inglebys and Byrnands. The descendants of
Thomas Knaresburgh the miller were less prominent.' I'm very
interested to find out more information about this Christopher
Mawtus. |

Patricia (Boddy) Tharp tharpkd@aol.com
John Moorhouse was born in 1805 in Newbridge or Clint, the son
of Samuel and Martha (Morrel) Moorhouse. In 1829 he married
at Ripley Elizabeth Boddy of Raventofts Mill, Bishop Thornton,
the daughter of John and Elizabeth (Dawson) Boddy. Both were
from Catholic families. They farmed at Clint before emigrating
to America in the early 1830s with her brother, Galen and
his wife Ann (Rainforth) Boddy. John Moorhouse inherited from
his father land at Clint, which is described in John's will
(1887) as "my real estate which is laying and being in
Yorkshire, England, known as the Clint Estate, near Birstwith
Station, Nidd Valley Rail Road, being 22 acres, more or less." I
do not have as yet, the land deed and on a recent trip to
this area could not figure out where this land was. No doubt,
across the old packhorse bridge over the River Nidd on the
Clint side, but where?? |

who moved to Knaresborough with their five children in the

The eldest child was Lillie Pape born 1874, who married William
Parvin at Knaresborough in 1898; they had at least one child,
a son called William Alan Parvin born 21 September 1900.
The next chikd was James Collier Pape born 1876, who married
Mary Ellen Cassells at Knaresborough in 1901; they had one daughter
Doris Sophia Pape born 1903. Sophia (Doris) married Bernard
Trafford Oates at Knaresborough in 1931.
The third child was Tom Pape born 1879 who married Mary Eliza
Ellis. We believe that they had two daughters Lily Sophia Pape
born 1906, and Mary Dorothy Pape born 1907, and a son Donald
who we believe to be a twin to Mary Dorothy, but who died shortly
after his birth. Lily Sophia married M. Wheelhouse at Knaresborough
in 1936, and Mary Dorothy married John Pullan at Knaresborough
in 1931.
The fourth chikd was William Henry Pape who we believe only
had one son, who was killed and we believe did not marry.
The fifth child was Ernest Leopold Pape, my grandfather.

My Great Grandfather was Patrick O'Brien Snr (born in Ireland) who
in the 1901 census was living in Park Row, Knaresborough with
five children Mary Ann 21.12.1878 (married George Bramley and
went to Boston in America), Ellen 19.3.1886, Margaret 31.8.1887
(may have married a man called Watson & had six children),
John William 11.5.1890 (married Nora and later killed on a London
building site), Emily 12.2.1893 (married two men Boniface
and King, and had 8 children). There were seven other
children who I presume were with their mother Elizabeth O'Brien
(nee Manley), Annie Maria, Agnes (moved to London, married William O'Shane
and had six children), Arthur (was a soldier), Rose 2.8.1894
(my grandmother married a Scottish soldier based in York), and
Lily 15.11.1895 (moved to Ripon and lived with her mother at
Thompsons Court off Allhallowgate), Patrick 19.3.1882 (Brickmaker & Ship
Stoker), Kate 19.2.1884 (married George Brown who was related
to Brown's Furnishers). The above children were born at
the following Knaresborough addresses, Park Row, Chapel Street,
Briggate, Kirkgate, Fisher's Gardens and Hope Street. I
suspect Thomas O'Brien also on the 1901 census at Fisher's
Gardens may have been Patrick O'Brien Snr's brother. I
have no whereabout information about my great grandmother Elizabeth
O'Brien (nee Manley, born in Ireland, died in Ripon in 1925 with
a mother called Catherine Reardon), Annie Maria, Patrick and
Ellen. Any information for any year would be gratefully

An Annie Tweedy Perry was born in possibly Harrogate in 1892.
(The BMD file stated Knaresbro) They seemed to have moved
around a bit and were in Brighton a few years later. Thomas
Perry (father) was a commercial traveller in 1887 when he
married Ellen Tweedy in london. I'm looking for a reason why
they were in Yorkshire (his job or family reasons) because
I cannot find Thomas Perry in any records nor Ellen Tweedys
grandfather who was James. This reads a little complicated
but I would be grateful for any help. I'm a member of both
SFHG and Easr Surrey FHG. |

Researching the family of Thomas Potterton & Maria Ayrton,
originally from Ovenden & Halifax. Thomas was a grocer in
Harrogate for many years and his wife ran a boarding house as
well. They had 4 children - Annie, Samuel, Maria & Mary
Florence. Annie Potterton married Thomas Burrill in 1868; Samuel
Potterton married Catherine Mary Pasons in 1875, Maria Potterton
married Elijah Papworth in 1878 and Mary Florence Potterton
married George Edward Robinson in 1889. I believe Annie Potterton
to be my Great Great Grandmother and gave birth to a son in
1865 before she ever married Thomas Burrill and gave him up.
She went on to have 2 sons with Thomas Burrill and I believe
they may have divorced and she may have had several other children.
I do not know if she remarried - she was on the 1891 Census
living with her parents and one of her sons by Thomas Burrill.
She disappears after that and I can only find her parents and
the same son in Harrogate on the 1901 Census. I would appreciate
if someone might look up obituaries for Annie's parents & brother
in the hope that they might give me some clue as where Annie
Potterton Burrill disappeared to. The death dates for them are
as follows - Deaths December Quarter 1900 (brother) Potterton
Samuel 50 Knaresbro' Volume 9a Page 71; Deaths March Quarter
1910 (Father) POTTERTON Thomas 89 Knaresbro' Volume 9a Page

in 1906. They had three children: Mary Ordish b 1971, Leeds;
Percival Ordish b1874, Leeds; Florence Ordish b 1878, Harrogate.

Sarah Pratt on his death in 1906. |

Thomas may have migrated to Knaresborough. |

Marilyn Arnold (nee Pape) aja@arniesworld.fsnet.co.uk
I am researching the family of my father and in particular I
would be interested in making contact with any of the descendants
of my great grandparents William and Sophia Pape (nee Collier)
who moved to Knaresborough with their five children in the
1880s.
The eldest child was Lillie Pape born 1874, who married William
Parvin at Knaresborough in 1898; they had at least one child,
a son called William Alan Parvin born 21 September 1900.
The next chikd was James Collier Pape born 1876, who married
Mary Ellen Cassells at Knaresborough in 1901; they had one daughter
Doris Sophia Pape born 1903. Sophia (Doris) married Bernard
Trafford Oates at Knaresborough in 1931.
The third child was Tom Pape born 1879 who married Mary Eliza
Ellis. We believe that they had two daughters Lily Sophia Pape
born 1906, and Mary Dorothy Pape born 1907, and a son Donald
who we believe to be a twin to Mary Dorothy, but who died shortly
after his birth. Lily Sophia married M. Wheelhouse at Knaresborough
in 1936, and Mary Dorothy married John Pullan at Knaresborough
in 1931.
The fourth chikd was William Henry Pape who we believe only
had one son, who was killed and we believe did not marry.
The fifth child was Ernest Leopold Pape, my grandfather.
I would be interested to hear from any person who is researching
the names Pape, Collier, Parvin, Oates, Wheelhouse or Pullan,
or from anyone who is a living relative of this family. |

My grandfather was Edward Pullen who was born on 9.10.1886 in
Rainton - parents John & Annie Elizabeth (nee Deighton).
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. |
