Dear List, I have found my gt. grandfather's brother and family at 14, Holland Street, Sheffield in 1911. JAMES BOND was aged 48, born Cardiff, with occupation Municipal Clerk of Thorpe. His wife was LAURA, 42, born Akerley, Bucks. Daughter Mildred, 22, born Cardiff Daughter Laura, 20, born Kentish Town Son Charlie James, 18, born Kentish Town Daughter Violet Elizabeth, 16, born Campden Town. There was an older daughter BEATRICE who does not appear on the Sheffield census. If anyone knows of this family I would be very pleased to hear from them. JAMES was previously a stone mason. Best wishes, WENDY

Hi everyone, I'm terribly sorry for making you wait for the latest update to the YKS Surnames List, but I have been deeply involved going through piles of dusty 230-year-old parish registers in the North of Portugal Archives for Braga. Despite the years of neglect, much due to political and military upheavals and events in the country (the Peninsular War, among others), they are in a remarkable condition and not all that difficult to read. I imagine that clear, copperplate calligraphy was a requisite for the position of Parish Priest! One of the most rewarding features of these birth records, is the remarkably complete information they contain. A typical entry for a child will have the name of the child, date of birth, names of parents, names of both maternal and paternal grandparents; date of christening (usually within 2-3 days of the birth), names of all godparents, duly identified as son or daughter of X (father) and X (mother) of X (place of residence). When a grandparent or other parent is deceased, this is also duly noted. Considering the time since the last update, it is not all that surprising that I had to delete all the submissions for the following researchers whose emails were reported to me as bouncing, and continue to bounce. Please, don't forget to let me know when you change your email. There is no form for this and I am happy to take care of it. Just remember to send me both your old and new email address for identification purposes: Pauline Hawkes (5) phawkes@cnx.net Denise M.

The following are the new submissions: ARMITAGE, ATKINSON BURR(E)(I)LL COCKS FENWICK, FOSTER, FRANCE GLOVER, GRAHAM HARRISON, HEWSON, HODGSON, HUTCHINSON KIRK, KIRKBY MCGANN, MENDHAM, MORTON, MUSGRAVE PEGG, PICKERSGILL, PRIESTMAN SHIPPEN WARDELL, WEBSTER As I sit here on my mountainside, listening to the wind howl and the rain lash my window and yes, it is gusting Gale Force 8 with 3 inches of rain expected for this 24-hour period, I am reminded of the terrible weather and flooding that has affected so many areas in the North of England. I hope that none of our Yorksgeners have suffered overmuch from the weather.

Hi June, Just thought that you might be interested that some of my GUITE relatives lived at Pass Houses in the nineteenth century, certainly between 1861 and 1881.

Hi I am trying to find William and Emma Benson on the 1901 census without any luck. William was born about 1868 in Sheffield and his occupation was file cutter. I have found him on the 1891 census on Ancestry where he is listed as Wm Benson as per the actual census and he is age 23 with Emma age 22 and 2 children Florence 4 and Wm Isaac 2 months living at 87 Granville Lane, Sheffield. I think he is still alive at this time (I have also searced for Emma on her own) as I believe I may have found him on the 1911 census Would someone be able to find locate him.

hello June, My modern A to Z still has 'Passhouses Road' (formerly Pass Houses Lane), which is where Pass Houses used to be. On the 1850's map at http://www.old-maps.co.uk they are at grid reference 435900 389600*. They are still on the1905 Godfrey reprint (Sheffield North sheet). They are in a triangle formed by Abbeyfield Road, Firshill Road and Scott Road. (the last two didn't exist on the earliest map). *If you are not familiar with this site, try this: click on 'maps' in the top menu enter Pitsmoor in the search engine (top left) and click 'go' the results are a drop down menu, with only one hit - click it the 1850's map opens enter the coordinates (centre top) and click 'go' zoom in using the buttons on the left hand side You can look at other years by using the thumbnails at the bottom. Not all the maps are zoomable.

Please could any one help me with a lookup for the Bapt, of Josephus Willmott and all I know is that on the FreeBMD Site he was born in Barnsley 1909 March Quarter.But I am most sure that he was Bapt, in St, Thomas,s Church in Worsbrough Dale near Barnsley so I suppose the Bapt, could have taken place say up to the end of 1909. I would really be very grateful for any help in this Thankyou Barrie Haigh form lovely Anna Bay ex Worsbro, Dale __________________________________________________________________________________ Win 1 of 4 Sony home entertainment packs thanks to Yahoo!7.

Hi list I have another query that I hope someone can help with. On the 1861 census a relative was living on Barnsley Road, Sheffield at "Pass Houses". Does anyone know what these were. I have tried googling without success. Regards June Sheffield

Hi thanks to everyone who responded to my query. I thought it may be Crickett Inn Road but it definitely looks like Cucklett but then we are talking writing in 1851 I suppose.

Hi June - Im pretty sure this will be Cricket Inn Road, in Sheffield - which still exists. best wishes Gill (in Sheffield too) Hi list I am wondering if SKS on the list can tell me if I am reading the name of this road correctly. On the 1851 census I have a relative living at what looks like Cucklett Inn followed by an abreviation which I think may be road in the Ecclesiastical district of St Johns. The Benson family members where widely spread over the the Park area of Sheffield over many years but I have never come across this road. I would appreciate any advice and help.

Hi June, Yup you got it right and they were in St John's Ecclesiastical Parish which I am just transcribing. I think I may have come across a Benson already and it may be on our site.........

Thank you for that Tony - gosh it would have taken ages to find looking at parish registers especially given that Joseph wasn't baptised for another 11 years after his birth! I will also follow the link you provided and see what else I can find. Regards Sharon Hello Sharon,   It looks like we have transcribed Josephs baptism on our site www.SheffieldIndexers.com   Swan, Joseph (of Morgan St, born 1847-10-18).      Baptised August 1, 1858, by Hy. Barlow at Christ Church, Pitsmoor.      Parents name(s) are Sarah & George (Father Dead).   Regards   Tony Morton Sheffield Indexers --- On Sun, 22/11/09, Sharon Jameson <sharon-j@bigpond.net.au> wrote: From: Sharon Jameson <sharon-j@bigpond.net.au> Subject: [SHEFF] SWANN family in Handworth To: eng-sheffield@rootsweb.com Date: Sunday, 22 November, 2009, 9:16 Hi   I am new to the list and new to researching in England.   My interest is in the SWANN family who (according to census information) comes from Handsworth.   JOSEPH SWANN (1847 - 1930) married JANE BUTLER (1846 - ?) in Sheffield in 1872.   JOSEPH SWANN's father is given as GEORGE SWANN (born c 1826).

Hello Hugh Thank you for the welcome! Thank you also for the information on the place name of Brightside Bierlow. I did have the later census information on the family. Initially it was very confusing, hopefully in time it will sort itself out. Thanks again Sharon Hello Sharon, and welcome to the list! Do you have the later census information for this family? I see that George died shortly after the 1851 census and Sarah married William SIMPSON (and there's a visitor called TURNER in the 1861 household). The place name is Brightside Bierlow (there is also Ecclesall Bierlow in Sheffield). Bierlow is a word of Norse origin. Here is a useful quote I came across: from Discovering Parish Boundaries By Angus Winchester; Osprey Publishing, 2000 "... much of England possesses a much more scattered settlement pattern consisting of small hamlets and dispersed farmsteads. In these areas lordship or the existence of early local folk meetings were probably the forces which bound scattered groups of farms together into township communities. A hint of these early origins in the north of England comes in the term bierlow or byerlaw, a term which came to be almost synonymous with 'village community, township' and survived in place-names such as Brampton Bierlow, Brightside Bierlow and Eccleshall Bierlow in the West Riding of Yorkshire. Derived from the Scandinavian term byar-log, meaning ' the local law of the township', it hints that a village meeting, a sort of proto-manor court making regulations affecting the whole community, was the essential feature binding scattered farms into a township community."
