I am looking for any information about the early life of my
great grandmother Alice Rawling(s). On the 1881 census
she appeared as a six-year old inmate of the Knaresborough
Union Workhouse along with her two sisters, Harriet and
Agnes and her brother Arthur. There was no place of
birth given.
I have her marriage certificate which gives her father's name
as Samuel Rawlings (deceased).
I would like to know how she came to be in the workhouse and
who her mother was. She subsequently married my great
grandfather William Thorpe Wilson on 25.8.1900 and had a son
and daughter. If anyone can shed any light upon the situation
it would be much appreciated. The married name of sister
Agnes was Howell and I think Arthur's wife was called Minnie.
Of Harriet I have no knowledge. If anyone could tell me how
to obtain information about workhouse records, that too would
be appreciated. |

Patricia (Boddy) Tharp tharpkd@aol.com
Seeking parentage of my ancestor Jane Render who was born in
the 1730s or early 1740s. In 1770 she married at Ripon Galen
Boddy of Sawley. Later they moved to nearby Raventofts Farm
and Mill in the township of Bishop Thornton. It is thought
Galen, a stonemason, may have built the mill in the late 1790s.
He was a miller there until he died in 1802. After his death,
Jane continued to live there with her only son, John Boddy,
until her death in 1826. In 1813, a Francis Render, was the
godfather at the baptism of Jane's granddaughter, Isabel Boddy
at St. Joseph's RC chapel in Bishop Thornton. It is speculated
that Joseph Render who became the beloved priest of St. Wilfred's
in York, may have been her nephew. There are many Render families
at Hampsthwaite. Which one was hers? |

I am researching the names of Scurrah and Collier and Ambler

(as given in census) and John Collier her husband who was
I believe born in Burton Leonard in 1813. I have not been
able to trace any details of Ann's birth but believe they
were married in Knaresborough in 1836, Ann's maiden name is
possibly Ambler. They were the parents of Ellen Ann Collier
who married William Scurrah son of Christopher Scurrah.The
marriage tok place in June 1877. After her marriage Ellen
Scurrah produced a number of children and quite often was
living in Ivy Cottages with her mother. I have not been able
to discover the whereabouts of William Scurrah for much of
the marriage. Any information would be welcome. |

Karen Wagner BWagner@si.rr.com
I am researching my husband's SHANN family who came to America
around 1818/1819. The earliest ancestor I can find here is
Josephus Shann, born August 1819 in Woodbridge, Somerset County,
New Jersey. I believe his father was John Shann who died in
NJ in 1829 and his mother may have been Mary Umpleby who I
believe died in 1882. All of the other Shann's (James, Sarah,
Charles, Jane, John and maybe Edward) who I believe are his
siblings, also lived in Woodbridge but were born in England
according to the census indexes. Josephus was the first one
born here, so I think his mom was probably pregnant with him
when then came over. Josephus was a farmer, dabbled in politics
and owned a newspaper in Rahway for a short while. He married
Anne Crowell whose ancestry goes back to the FitzRandolphs.
Josephus and Anne had at least 9 kids, he died in 1913. |

My mother always claimed that one of her ancestors - a great
(plus a few more) grandfather died in Knaresborough at the
ripe old age of 100 plus. She claimed to have seen a plaque
in Knaresborough attesting to his age. My sister says she
remembers seeing the plaque when she visited with my mother
as a child-this would have been in the 1930s. My sister thought
it was outside this relative's house. The best guess is that
his name was Smith and I have a Robert Smith of Yorkshire
(Woodlesford ?) (my g/g/grandfather) born around 1796 who
could have been his son or grandson. Other possible family
names are Sugden, Brownridge, Eddison and Binks.
If anyone could shed any light on this, I would be most grateful. |

in 1872. Stories in the Family suggest that he moved to Harrogate
at some point (but I think they meant near Harrogate). Charles
Ellis was a qualified Butcher but the family believe that
when he moved to Knaresborough he sold Fresh dairy and garden
produce to the local hotels and restaurants although his death
certificate has his occupation as a poultry dealer.
He is believed to have lived in Rose Cottage (Is there a Rose
Cottage in Knaresborough that anyone might know about?). His
death certificate shows that he died at 15 Calcutt Houses Knaresborough
Outer Rd.
I have looked through the GRO indexes and have found the following
entries which seem to fit in with his life story.
Charles married Annie L Webster There is a death entry for an
Annie L Stead aged 65 Knaresboro Qtr4 1936 Charles and Annie
had one child that I know of Named Albert Vernon Stead. There
is a GRO Marriage entry for an Albert Vernon Stead to a Miss
Duff in Knaresboro' Qtr4 1932 Also a Death entry for Albert
Vernon Stead aged 45 in Knaresboro' Qtr4 1943 I don't know if
Albert Vernon and Miss Duff had any children - If anyone can
help I would be most grateful
I would also love to know if anyone has heard of or knows of
a Rose Cottage in Knaresborough and any details of the business
that Charles Ellis Stead may have run.
Perhaps there is someone who visits the cemetery in Knaresborough
doing research who may be able to locate the headstones of the
above and mail me the details?

I am researching any connections with the Taylor family
of Knaresborough and the origins of the Whitehawk name.
My GGG Grandfather was Thomas Taylor (a miller) and he and his
wife Ann (b1806) had 2 sons Robert (bap 1835) and William Whitehawk
(b1828 d1859). William was married twice, first to Mary Lawn
and then to Jane Hemshall. William and Mary had three children
Thomas (b1852) Mary Ann (b1851) and John (b1857). Descendants
include: Pawson, Pollard, Johns, Crawley, Gledhill, Baldwin
and Atkinson.
I am guessing that Whitehawk connection is a maiden
name (perhaps Ann's). There are Whitehawks listed in Yorkshire
at about this time at Ripon, Alne, South Cave and Ellerbourne. |

Christopher married Ann Mudd (1819 -she died 1834 ) then Sarah
Leavock 1855. Christopher and Ann had twin daughters - Mary
who married Thomas Bayllis and lived in Leeds and Martha (deceased
by 1857/1858 ) who married Rev. William Barker and they had
a least one son William who may have emmigrated to America.
(Christopher and Ann's only other child was Stephen - my g.g.
grandfather) Im trying to find the parents of Christopher
Thorpe - know it is William and ? - probably Stephen and Thomas
were brothers as well as a William (1781)., Jane (1783) Joseph
or James ( 1785 ) Richard ( 1796 ) and Sarah (1801) . |
| TINDALL |

before 1806 |

William Tindall was a surgeon in Knaresbrough who may have been
a native of Pickhill cum Roxby as he was buried at Pickhill
in 1806. Are there any city directories from this time period
(before 1806) or any way I could find out more about him?
I think John Rainforth, who may have been his nephew, might
have done his surgeon's apprenticeship with William Tindall
in Knaresborough. Any suggestions? John Rainforth went to
Bolton-le-Moors in Lancashire in about 1802 and was known
as the "father of medicine" there until his death
in 1857. |

I am looking for any information about my grandparents Harry
and Edith Tomlin. Edith's maiden name was Brown and she was
born in Knaresborough around 1900. Harry was born in Hastings
about 1894. They lived in Forest Crescent, Starbeck for many
years and had 4 daughters. I believe that Harry died in the
1960s.
Thank you
