Hi Barry Found the site. Anyone with ancestors from Bradford will find these areas very informative, some complete with pictures. Anyway, go to:- www.bradford.gov.uk Click on Environment on left side of screen - Click on Conservation on right side of screen Click on Conservation area & conservation area assessments - right side of screen Scroll down to Southfield Square & click on it. All the related links are about the conservation of the area. There is a picture of the houses in Southfield Square in one of the links which was taken in 1977 which is when the area had gone decidedly downhill. It is not a fast site and a bit of patience is needed. Hope this helps.

Hi, I am looking for possible links or snippets of information regarding Joseph EDMONDSON and his wife Nancy. Joseph was born c1788 , christened 1780 Thornton Chapel, Bradford. Nancy was deceased by 1841, no information on her. Children born from c1803 to 1838 were Mary, John, Harriet, Grace, Ruth, (H) Agar, William, Margaret, Joseph, Sarah and Hannah. Joseph was a boatman in 1841, family living at Wharfe St, Bradford East. Mary married John MOORHOUSE, Ruth married Jonas VERITY. Any information on them such as other marriages or burial places gratefully received. Many thanks, Sue

Hi Barry The Royal Eye & Ear hospital was in Hallfield Road which is just off Manningham Lane. I believe it opened there in around 1857ish and closed in 1966. Records are in the Bradford Archives Office. Do you think the place of death meant he died in the hospital but was of 47 Southfield Square. I have a few death certificates which say this. I believe that 47 Southfield Square is still standing as it comes under the conservation order for that area which you can find on the www.bradford.gov.uk site. There is also a description of the architecture of this house. I have this info stored somewhere and if I find it I will get back to you. Alternatively, if you put 47 Southfield Square into Google you will find some mentions there. Southfield Square is around the back of Hallfield Road. Hope this helps a bit.

In the 1901 census I had relatives (great-grandaunt with her husband and her brother, my great-granduncle) living at 32 Southfield Square. By 1906, when the great-grandaunt's husband died, they were living at number 47. In the 1901 census both houses appear to be normal private houses but when my great-granduncle died at number 47 in 1914, 47 Southfield Square is named as the Royal Eye and Ear Hospital. My great-grandaunt died at number 47 in 1932 but it isn't named as a hospital. Can anybody please tell me something of the history of this house and is it still standing ? Barry Emmott

Thanks Geoff, I now have this picture in my mind of a little man scurrying around with a bundle of papers from house to house lol. It must have been a full time job when Bradford began to expand so rapidly and with the influx of people from places such as Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. I presume this was necessary as many people could not read or write then. The different accents must have made transcribing what was said very difficult, no wonder there are so many discrepancies in spellings of names and places.

Hi My understanding is that Civil Registration was the responsibility of the Registrar until 1875 - he or she had to go out and collect info on births, marriages and deaths in their area, rather than the individual having to report the event, and that this procedure led to some registrations being later than the optimum. I've been told that a Death Reg was required for a burial to take place, unless the minister knew the family involved, and there was no hint of any problem with the death.... Among my ancestors, I certainly have one Death Registration three quarters after the actual burial was noted in the parish registers.....

I should have said the 1857 registrations were both in the Jul-Sept quarter, I know little about this in the 1850s, but wouldn't the registrations have to take place within a certain length of time?

Also there is a William Whyte recorded in the Sept quarter in 1865 - did you perhaps get the last 2 numbers of the year the wrong way around?

Re the Death Index and William Whyte Query. Bear in mind that the GRO index is an index of the death REGISTRATIONS. While he may have died in 1856, perhaps his death wasn't registered until 1857. Maybe he is one of the two results for 1857. Just a thought. Stephanie Lever (researching HALLIDAY, SUTCLIFFE, HEMINGWAY)

Hello Everybody, If there is anyone with the G.R.O. Death index would they kindly look for a entry for WILLIAM WHYTE died 19-9-1856 I am trying to find the Place and index number. Thank you. Regards, Syd

Dear Kim, My HANSON connection is in a shambles and while they are cantered around Wibsey at the same time as your twigs there appears to be little joy for me in your listing. My great grand mother was Tabitha Hanson born June 1810 to William (be 1764 me 1787) and Judith Bateman.. He was reported to have died in 1815.. Tabitha Married John TORDOFF who died at the age of 38 in 1850. Tabitha then married a much younger, John MARSHAL:L in 1852. Witness to the marriage was Tabitha's FATHER William ???. Tabitha died in 1862, was buried with her first husband using his name. Nothing has been found of John Marshall, other than a marriage certificate.

Hi, Just a bit to add to the Fearnley data. William Lee and Ann Fearnley also had a son William born circa 1842 who married a lady called Harriet probably Harriet Harris (I have sent for the marriage certificate). This couple had a daughter Beatrice Lee born abt 1890 who married my great Uncle Herbert Holdsworth. This data re who Herbert married and the name of her parents was provided to me by the House of Lords Records Office. Herbert Holdsworth was MP for Bradford South during WWII and was knighted in 1944 for his work in organising the collection of metal to make armaments. He was responsible for the disappearance of park railings etc all over the country! Incidentally I know from newspaper articles that Herbert and Beatrice had a daughter called Margaret who worked with her father, but I have never been able to find out what happened to her. So if anyone out there knows please could you let me know.
