Thanks for this Victor. I understand that when Whitby Abbey was built it too was a mile or two inland .

Hello, Re the Cobb inquiry, Benjamin Cobb was a witness to the will of my 3x great-grandfather, John Broadley, farmer, of Lund on the 4th of January, 1828. Unfortunately the only evidence I have is his name, not even profession. Although the will is a transcription, it seems Benjamin was able to write his name , otherwise it would have indicated 'his mark' I imagine.. Hope this is of interest. While I'm here, I'll just note that I'm interested in BROADLEY and MEASE of Lund, WILKINSON of Watton and SPENCE of Etton. Oh, and BARUGH of Thwing and Beeford, and ALMACK of Cherry Burton Cheers Barbara

Hi List I would like to repost my interest in the COBB family who were based in Lund, Kilnwick and surrounding area. If anyone has a link to either Benjamin COBB of Lund or John COBB and Sarah BEILBY, I would be pleased to hear from you. Regards Erica

Paul What do you mean by 'old' East Riding? East Riding still exists and always will. No one in Whitehall can ever change that. The same goes for West and North Ridings. What has changed is only the administration counties defined by some civil servants in their ivory tower.

Hello listers having found that in 1891 Bempton Census ,the cottages I was interested in were numbers 2 & e3 Scarborough Road and not 14 & 16 High Street that they are named today,I would be grateful to receive images of the full 1851 Census.I expect it would be about 6 image files in total. Could someone be kind enough to send these to me please?. I have a copy of the 1851 Bempton O/s to use in analysing this. Thank You David

Linda I get confused over Scarborough because it shows up in North Yorkshire for some things and East Yorkshire for others. It's definitely covered by EYFHS for genealogy which is why I started here! Anyway I'll give the North Yorks list a go to see if they can help.

Hi Paula, I haven't seen an answer to your question yet, so I'll try an answer.
