Just found a school pic of Alice Maud Barroclough and Lizzie Baroclough (spelt like that) ... Someone may be looking for this... http://www.saddleworth-historical-society.org.uk/pages/dobcross1924no2.html

Hi Nicki I have recently started to look at my husband's side of the family and Manchester is one of the places I will be looking. This area is new to me but I will keep a look out for any stray Barracloughs. Anne

Hi Nicki, I have so enjoyed reading your email, as I know the others have as well. I think you are right in leaving the questioning for now. I know I get frustrated at not remembering something and I'm not that old. So can only imagine what it's like for someone with dementia.Better to just let her chat away, and hopefully your friend can write it all down. Nicki do you have a copy of your grandparents Marriage Certificate, it might prove helpful if you did. It should list the fathers and their occupations of the married couple. But again, if her father was not known to her, then chances are he is not mentioned on the certificate. But it should give the details of your granddads father and his occupation if he was known to your granddad. Which is something useful to have anyway. If you don't have the certificate and want to get Peter to check our the registrations number for you just let him know. Many thanks to Anne, Kath and Pete for all your help, it is greatly appreciated by not only Nicki but myself as well. As for the spelling Nicki, I have seen the surname spelt every which way :-))))))))) The variants really came about because way back when, most people could not read or write and so it was largely left up to the church minister as to how he thought it was spelt when filling out the details in the Parish Register. It also seems to be a location thing as well. Some places you will find it is mostly spelt one way, and somewhere else it's spelt another way. Then there is the transcriptional room for errors as well. The most popular spelling in modern times is Barraclough. Nicki if ever you want to ask any questions, about how to go around researching or anything else, just ask away. We have some very experienced researchers here who have been doing this for years. Between us all, we can usually help someone with there inquiries. And as you have found we are all a really friendly and helpful bunch of people scattered all over the world. We will keep everything crossed that Pete is able to find Stanley & Violet in the PRO Indexes.

Hi Anne, I found these snippets of info, I hope it helps. Halifax bombers were designed by Handley Page Ltd, but production was shared between Handley Page, the English Electric Company of Preston, the London Aircraft Production Group, Rootes Securities at Speke and Fairey Aviation at Stockport. Handley Page was based in Cricklewood but moved its flying activities to Radlett in Hertfordshire as a result of the closure of Cricklewood Aerodrome. Handley Page also owned a site at Woodley in Berkshire. English Electric had their factory at Strand Road, Preston, also an aerodrome was built for production flight testing and final assembly at Samlesbury. The London Aircraft Production Group used London Transport's workshop facilities to help production for the war effort. Over 700 Halifax bombers, armoured vehicles and pontoon bridges were produced in these workshops during the war. In 1942, a recently completed three mile section of Underground tunnel between Gants Hill and Leytonstone was converted for use as a factory for manufacturing aircraft components. Construction started at Rootes Securities in 1941 at a "shadow factory" which was built by the Ministry of Aircraft Production on the edge of the airfield at Speke, Liverpool (at the edge of what is now Liverpool John Lennon Airport.

Hi Everyone, I went off line just before Xmas and have only just returned. As you all know Rod and I where going on our first Holiday in 30 years at Xmas. But the first day we where in Newcastle Rod had a mild stroke, therefore we had to cut short our holiday and didn't even get to Brisbane, unfortunately. Rod is ok, and now that he is on med. for his blood pressure and cholesterol, he is back to his old self again. I hope you all had a wonderful Xmas, and want to wish you all a very Happy New Year, may we all find lots of new ancestors in 2005 especially of the Barraclough lkind. Linda, we drove thru Bairnsdale but as it was 4am, I didn't think you would appreciate me knocking at your door at that time of the morning :-))))))))))))) Cheers Kim

Hi Nicky, Let's see if we can help you. Has your Grandma told you the name of her parents ? it would be a help as even though she and Stanley where not born until about 1917-1920. I do have the 1901 census for Yorkshire for all Barraclough families, and might be able to at least find her father if your Grandma can remember his name, if her mother told her. Does anyone in the Group have access to the GRO registers, and can do a lookup for a Stanley and Violet around the 1917-1920's ? Don't forget to check all variant's, if it was a Halifax Barraclough, it would most likely be spelt Barrowclough, but check all, please. The only Orphanages I know of in England is Dr. Bernardo's Orphanage, was there any in Yorkshire ? may be someone on the list knows, of any local Orphanages around this time frame. ? Nicky, the Halifax are is the where the surname originated, but it has various variant spellings, as you will know by what I have written above. It is quiet possible that your Grandma was born in Halifax and at some stage moved to Manchester. I would imagine that possibly her father might have died just after she was born or a little before. He might have died in the 1st world war ? Has anyone else any idea's or knowledge about Orphanage in Yorkshire ?

Hi All Another avenue to go down - does anyone know exactly where the Halifax planes were built during the war? Nicky's grandmother must have lived somewhere near the factory at the time. Anne

Hi Kath, Almost - the title of the book is 'Life's Handicap' by Rudyard Kipling - a collection of 27 'Stories of Mine Own People'. Well done! The first character I mentioned, Learoyd is introduced in the first chapter/yarn 'The Incarnation of Krishna Mulvaney'. But the Reverend Amos Barraclough is introduced in the third chapter/yarn 'On Greenhow Hill'. The particular book I have is the 'Centenary Edition' published by Macmillan London Limited in 1982 - it notes that the first edition was dated 1891 and also mentions a 1899 "Uniform Edition" - this may be the edition you referenced.

For all those bright Barraclough researchers - an end of year quiz question for you all. Been reading a book by a well known author. One of the characters is described as . . . . " . . . . . six and a half feet of slow-moving, heavy-footed Yorkshireman, born on the wolds, bred in the dales, and educated chiefly among the carriers' carts at the back of York railway-station. His name was L------, and his chief virtue an unmitigated patience which helped him to win fights." In the book, this character L------ described another in the same story, the Reverend Amos Barraclough as " . . . a little white-faced chap, wi' a voice as 'ud wile a bird offan a bush, and a way o' layin' hold of folks as made them think they'd never had a live man for a friend before." . . . . and my questions are - can anyone identify the book and the author? Look forward to hearing your answers - no prize, just acclamation from everyone else! Best wishes, John B. Wilson, Sassafras, Vic. ps Someone more brilliant than the rest of us might even tell us when this book's first edition was first published. --------------------------------------------------------------

Hi John, I think it's The Incarnation of Krishna Mulvaney by Rudyard Kipling ... and the first (American) edition 1899.

A certain J W BARRACLOUGH of Silverwood, Greenfield was a subscriber to eight copies of "The Chapelry and Church of Saddleworth" by J W HOWCROFT in 1915. Anyone claim him? Best wishes Rob

Beth One possibility - maybe Mary Ann Barraclough Senior married twice. Anne Barracloughs of Horton

Harry, I don't know how to get in touch with David Barraclough but I have a BARRACLOUGH connection in Rastrick. My g,g grandmother was Mary Ann BARRACLOUGH who married William Mitchell HINCHCLIFFE in Halifax district in 1874. They resided and raised a family in Rastrick(there is entry in 1881 census). I have conflicting information on Mary Ann BARRACLOUGH'S parents. The marriage certificate gives Mary Ann BARRACLOUGH as her name and indicates she was a 20 year old spinster at the time of their marriage. However, family information indicates her last name was JAEGER, daughter of Thomas William JAEGER and Mary Ann BARRACLOUGH. The latter contradicts the marriage certificate. I am obviously confused by the information I have collected. If anyone has any information that would sort some of this out, it would be much appreciated.

Re the photo of Manor House Farm on this page... http://www.downthelane.net/denise3.html This our house! So yes, a Barraclough connection having been in my husbands family since 1832. Situated in Lower Wyke, Bradford. Though now divided into 2 properties it was originally one, being referred to as The Manor House.
