Hi folks I'm wondering if anyone has connections with the above names so am posting my interests for the first time: William BRAITHWAITE born Newport 1850 (probably) , married in 1872 in POCKLINGTON to Sophie THACKRAY; mother of the same name( her father was Thomas STEWARDSON of Pocklington). One son was Ernest George Braithwaite, my gt grandfather who married Emily GILES in Pocklington. Her father was Henry Giles born in Barmby Moor in 1859. Mother Annie GORDON of Kilnwick Percy born 1855. Also Betsy Ann EVISON of WRANGLE Lincs. born 1868 whose mother was Betsy HUVIS on her cert. (could it be Hoves? as I've never found any other of that name) Also researching Entwistles in Bradford and Varleys in Wilsden near Bradford and in New Zealand. Thanks for your attention Elaine in Ireland
