hello Clive, The following is from David Crossley's book 'Water Power on the Sheffield Rivers': "STACEY WHEEL The first lease was taken in 1749 by Thomas Stacey of Handsworth, to erect a cutlers wheel on land between the upper cutlers wheel on the Loxley (Storrs Bridge Wheel) and Whithams corn mill (Dam Flask).William Brightmore took a 63-year lease in 1787...." There is no further mention of the name associated with this wheel. There are other mentions of the name in the book however: ---The Staceys are mentioned as holding the Lordship of the sub-manor of Owlerton in the 17th century. --- Turner Wheeel at Malin Bridge on the Loxley was leased by Malin Stacey in 1697 from the Duke of Norfolk (the first known reference to this wheel). ---A Malin Stacie had occupied the Slack Wheels (near the confluence of the Loxley and the Don) before 1637 (according to Harrison's survey of that year). --- in 1664 and 1670 William Stacey shared one half of Wicker Wheel (on the Don) with John Staniforth. Can you tell us something about your STACEYs ? Do you think they are related to these people ?
