Hello, These are the names I'm researching! John ARCHER and Hannah (I thought it was LOCKWOOD, but it could be RODEHOUSE - more digging to be done!) Hannah died 1834 at Saville Hall, Silkstone, Dodworth. Their son George ARCHER b 1810 chr Wombwell, married Amelia EMMERSON b 1811 Thorpe Hesley, the dau of Edward EMMERSON b 1778 Rotherham and Ann (BULHOUSE I think) b 1780 Thorpe Hesley. Edward EMMERSON b around 1754 married Amelia THOMPSON in Rotherham in 1775 Sarah Ann ARCHER b 1837 Thorpe Hesley married William PURDY in 1860 in Sheffield. (William was from South Wingfield, Derbyshire) --------------- Also, on another line, my WILLIAMS ancestors moved up to Rotherham, from Staffordshire in about 1858/9. Thomas WILLIAMS who was married to Sarah GOUGH in 1845 in Tipton, Staffordshire, moved up for work and brought all but one of their children with them. They lived on Greasbrough Rd at first, then moved to Brightside in Sheffield. Their children are Thomas WILLIAMS m Ellen KAY at Attercliffe in 1871 John Levi WILLIAMS m Elizabeth ? then Mary BRAMMALL in 1886 Patience WILLIAMS m Rufus PRIESTLEY in 1875 Sarah Jane WILLIAMS m James BERTRAM in 1885 Sophia WILLIAMS m Walter GREEN in 1887 All the above lived in the Brightside, Grimesthorpe, Wadsley Bridge, Grenoside, Pitsmoor areas of Sheffield at some time in their lives. (All lived at Rotherham when young and Sophia was born there) Thanks Valerie Chesterfield, Derbshire
