CORRECTION !!! Sorry Kim,Linda & 'Barracloughs' Everywhere. Hannah Barraclough's marr.to George Smith was more likely to have been c.1820-25 and NOT c.1800. She was more probably BORN c.1800 !!! Hoping for some input from this AMAZING, BRILLIANT,CLEVER List [And that's only the A,B,C of it !!! I could go on,and on and----] Cheers----------Derek 1

Hi Everyone, Well, I have finally uploaded my homepage. Yes work out how to upload to FTP :-) It took a couple of goes, but finally got there. My URL for the Barraclough Surname Study homepage is: http://users.net2000.com.au/~kmp789/index.html But don't use the email address that there, it's my old one. I will go and change a few things over the next few days. Having all our floorboards polished and sanded over the next few days, so want be on the puter much. Cheers Kim

Hi Jeff and Listers, Back in the 1980s,soon after I started to try to unravel my 2 Barraclough lines,I got to grips with June Benn's box of research material at the WY Archives,Bradford. I wrote to her to see if she could help me with problem Abraham & Francis ancestors.She helped as far as she was able,but said that whoever finally solved the Abraham/Francis enigma of the 17th-18th centuries,would be a genius.Which rules me out straight away ! Cheers---------Derek 1

I have just read Derek’s last message regarding the wives of Abraham. I feel I should explain that I recently sent to Derek my version of the Abraham ‘tree’. In it I have ascribed the burial of Anne, wife of Abraham Barraclough of Wibsey, buried on 1 February 1619/20 at Bradford Parish Church to this Abraham as it fits nicely with the baptism of his daughter Ellen on 23 January 1619/20 and the big gap to the baptism of his son Jonas in 1627. This does mean that Abraham had three wives, the second of which was called Anne. If this assumption is incorrect then which Abraham Barraclough did marry this Anne? There is no other obvious contender, or is there?? Derek was pointing out that this conflicts with the research of June Benn, who suggested that he only had two wives; the incumbent in 169/20 being called Agnes. I would also be interested in any thoughts that anyone might have.

Hi Jeff, I got my info.on Abraham and his wives and offspring many years ago,from June Benn's monumental box of Barraclough gen.at the Archives in Bradford.I never thought of re-researching her work,so this is what I have on his wives----- June believed his 1st wife was Jane AWDREY ; the marriage being c.1603 ; the children being Mary 1604,John 1606,William 1608,Francis 1610, and Jane 1612 ; Jane [wife] dying 1614 & being buried at Fewston 24.4.1614. Abraham's 2nd.wife,June believed to be Agnes Rileye [b.Warley,bap.24.10.1585].This 2nd.marriage was 1.7.1617 [Halifax PC] ; the children being Hester 1618,Ellen 1620 and Jonas 1627. June made no mention of a 3rd wife,but the gap between Ellen and Jonas certainly suggests there could have been the death of wife No.2,and a marriage to wife No,3.whoever she was. I will be most interested to know your thoughts on this,and I've put it on list to see what others think too. Cheers-------Derek.

Apparently the Borthwick Institute in York has misplaced this Will. Fortunately Derek managed to get copy of the Will before it was lost and he has been good enough to lend it to me, which I have now copied and scanned. This is a very significant Will as there are few surviving Wills from this time period and Abraham himself may well have been the founder Barraclough of the Wibsey and North Bierley dynasty. Other surviving evidence from the 17th century is scant and difficult to find and the Bradford and Wibsey Parish Registers are incomplete and/or missing. Derek has asked me to reproduce his 'translation', which I do below. Having compared the Will and the 'translation', I can confirm that it accurately reflects what has been written, except that Wibsey has been transcribed incorrectly as Wibley. Where the Latin 'Jurat' is used, these were insertions made at the time of probate and not part of the original text.

I have been trying to get a copy of this Will for some time now. Apparently the Borthwick Institute in York has ‘misplaced’ it. Kim tells me that Derek has a copy. Derek, I don’t have your email address, but if you contact me off list I’ll give you my postal address if you could let me have a copy.

Hi Peter Thanks for the info. It looks like the Abraham you note is a fit for my Hannah Barraclough . Certainly the 1891 dataon John and Mary Smith is correct and ohn is the son of Hannah. Hannah and her husband George Smith are my ggggrandparents. Do you have any other info on Abraham? wife? other children? Russell Smith Maine - USA

Hi Derek - My Ann Barraclough married James Smith 7 Aug. 1769. Their daughter Abigail Smith married into my Cockroft line marrying William Cockcroft 24 Jan. 1811. Maybe the same family you are looking for. Diane in California
