Hi Jack. I am almost certain that your Leeds Rd, Soothill is just outside Dewsbury, West Yorkshire. I was born there and and know that there where several areas where mining took place in that area. If you let me know what names your looking for I,ll check my data for that area and get back to you. Regards........ John

Michele Thanks Jack

Pauline Thanks Jack

Hi Peter, Yes, there may indeed be a distant connection, with the HARRISON family from Fylingdales, but that needs some investigation! The WOOD family at Slingsby? Well, maybe, but there were several WOOD families in this area and, as yet, I have not managed to connect them all. I will let you know if I make any connections there.

Hi Jack I seem to think there is a Soothill in the Huddersfield area of West Yorkshire. Good luck. Paulette

Hello, the wife is at a loss to find Leeds Road, Soothill, Yorks. Her Gran aged aged 7 in 1881, born Kirton Fen, Lincs was living with her Mother and Step father. He was a Colliery Craftsman. Maybe I should post this to the West Riding but I do not know the address. Can anyone help Jack

Hi, I am a newbie and I am researching the following family names: BOOTH, OLIVER, OGDEN, COVERDALE, and PAGE.

Hi, I am new to this list. I am looking for anyone who might know about the Harvey family who lived in Ormsby from about 1875 to about 1900. They were from Suffolk orginally. There was a George HARVEY who appears to have settled in the area and raised a large family. There was also a George FROST who married Susan Harvey and had a daughter Mary Ann in 1880. There were also later children. These people were my husband's grandfather's brother and sister. Thanks for you help and suggestions. Dortha in the USA

Hello Listers, Does anyone have access to 1851/1861 Census Indexes that might show the whereabouts of Joseph Tattersall and his wife Jane? They were married 21st August 1848 St Martin & St Gregory, York, but I have no idea where they came from or where they are later on. By 1849 they have a daughter, Alice (my gggrandmother). Any ideas? Jo

Hi Karen, Thanks for the info re St Martin & St Gregory's Church. I've actually participated in a 'Micklegate Run' - some time ago now, and I think I must have passed the state of no return by the time I got anywhere near the Church because I don't remember seeing it! I shall go and have a 'sober' look!

Micklegate York where my ancestor Henry Cattall was chaplain and he died in 1460!! William

Yes it still stands on Micklegate, I was passed it yesterday after taking some photos of Holy Trinity (just up the road) but did not go in. There is still a notice board up and I got the impression it was still in use.
