Does anyone in the group live in/know about Wheldrake? My ggg grandfather Thomas HARRISON farmed there around 1820-40. I know the names of the fields he leased and I wonder if anybody might be able to identify where the fields are. Some have quaint names! They are Dovecoat Orchard Dovecoat field First Hipper Pudding Long Close/Fog Close Second Hipper Pudding Little Ing Michael Harrison
