Because of the impressive memory of Robert Wellbourn esquire I am now in possession of new relatives and in-laws. Are there any connections amongst Bradfordians to any of the following? More information on these ladies and gentlemen would be welcomed and appreciated. Are the BELLs driving you mad? I'm all right I tell you. Thanks, Norman G. Margaret BELL (b.31 Aug 1931 Sp: Ken WILKINSON (m.30 May 1953) Beatrice BELL (b.13 Oct 1899) Sp: Harold HOLBREY (b.22 Feb 1900) Harry (Henry) BELL (b.12 May 1894-Bradford Yorks; d.1979) Sp: Nellie TAYLOR Arthur BELL (b.29 Jan 1890-Bradford Yorks; d 17 Mar 1975-Bradford Yorks) Sp: Mary Campbell GALLAGHER (b.25 Nov 1888-Hepburn-on-Tyne;m.28 Oct 1916)

Would somebody please see if Lazarus is with his parents Michael and Ann in the 1841 census in Burnsall or perhaps Bradford. He has also a brother Cain. Thanks , Norman G.

Hi Listers, could anyone tell me if there is a cemetery on Halifax Rd in Bradford ? I don't know of one and have lived there for quite a few years. Regards Harry Blott (Canada)

I think this extracted Michael BELL might be yet another of Lazarus BELL's boys coming to Bradford. Unfortunately Michael's wedding looks like it might be in 1836 just before registration began so even if I knew where and when the marriage was it would not get me Michael's father's name. A baptism record exists in Muker for a son of Lazarus called Michael of just this age - but is this him? Please let me have any ideas on this matter. Lazarus's boys Ralph, George and Barnabas all ended up in Bradford so maybe Lazarus himself did? (There is in fact another boy Charles to account for and let's not forget Esther, Ann, Margaret, Elizabeth and Mary and all the horses.)

BICKERDIKE. Bride and groom both Xd.

Marriage certificate just to hand and published for posterity. Interesting that Charles's second wife, wed 1891, lived at 7 Collier Street next-door-but-one to Margaret. It would be a SMITH wouldn't it? Any more information on the SMITHs would be gratefully received.

Hello, I spotted the interest in the BROGDEN name. I don't know if it is a unusual name, but I don't recall it cropping up before. But it rang a bell with some of my previous research. I have the LW&T of one of my ancestors, William SKIRROW, of Dubb, Bingley, who died about Dec 1901. His Will was witnessed by both John BROGDEN and John BROGDEN Junior. I have no other reference to these names - it may be that they were simply Solicitors, or there in some legal capacity, as opposed to being family friends. But I've often wondered.

Hi I have the 1841 census cd's but need to find where to look for Dibley Street East End of Bradford. I am looking for people by the name of BROGDEN. those of you with the CD's know how hard it is just to trawl through looking for names, so I am hoping someone might have an idea where I can start.
