If you have families from Cowling/Kildwick, Silsden and Skipton area, I would recommend the CD of transcribed parish records - follow the link to Dovelands Publishing from Cowlingweb.co.uk (or go straight to www.dovelandspublishing.co.uk). It's well worth the £10 :-) I have a copy of you want me to to check coverage for you before buying.

Yes, mid-to late 18th century. The only reference I have is from my g grandfather's Death Certificate on which it states his father was a Weaver. What records I have of him each state he was born in Stockton-on-Tees but to date I've been totally unsuccessful in locating any records whatsoever of his birth or of his parents. The names I have produce nothing. I think his early life will remain a mystery but I'll still keep trying for a while yet. Thank you for your suggsetions, I appreciate you taking the time.

Thanks for any help. > > Marcelle in Western Australia> Depends what period you are talking about. If, as I suspect, you are talking about the mid-late 18th century I very much doubt it. Trade unions didn't get started until towards the end of the century and guilds were for craftsmen and merchants, etc., not ordinary weavers and workers in the mills. Ordinary people weren't thought of as being very important, you see, especially not millworkers! Since most of the mills are long gone, I suspect any records will have disappeared, too, unless you are lucky enough to find some in a record office. However, you don't state specifically which part of Yorkshire you mean, though I imagine you intend the West Riding, since that's where most of the mills were. You could try asking the West Yorkshire Archives' Leeds and Bradford branches. You should be able to find their e-mail addresses with Google but I wouldn't bank on a swift reply! You would probably be better off asking someone on the list who goes to these record offices regularly to enquire next time they're there. -- Roy Stockdill Guild of One-Name Studies: www.one-name.org Newbies' Guide to Genealogy & Family History: www.genuki.org.uk/gs/Newbie.html "There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about."

Re Williams marriage. Service performed by the curate Henry King. Witnesses were Thomas Bailey, Mary Ward, James Sanderson, Mary Collier & Dorothy Ellecker. (Mary Collier ??? must be related to me somehow. haha) 2 other marriages around that time - William Sanderson 32yrs married Betty Granger 25yrs on 12th July 1825. William was a thread spinner. They had a son John baptised 24th August 1829. William Sanderson 20yrs married Mary Sonley 22yrs on 6th May 1826. William was a hawker They had a daughter Jane baptised 3rd Nov 1826. Deaths - Thomas Sanderson c1810 died 5th Oct 1831 James Sanderson c1807 died 19th July 1834 Richard Sanderson c1771 died 11th March 1835 Mary Sanderson c1784 died 20th Nov 1835 Betty Sanderson c1794 died 22nd June 1840 - living at Half Way House, Lastingham. With the Maxwell deaths, it looks like there was some disease going about in early 1830's. No other baptisms or marriages so it looks like both families were incomers.

Hi In a nutshell, no there were no records kept. If you know which factory they worked in there may have been some surviving record or wages books which would be lodged with the local archive office but I think you will find that nothing exists. I am afraid you will find that weavers and other mill workers were classed as 'ten a penny' labour, They were usually very good at what they did but had to work very hard to stay in their jobs. There were always people willing to step into their shoes the minute they left a job or fell by the wayside. Many workers suffered with lung disease brought about the fibres floating in the air and being inhaled. Certainly if you are trying to trace anyone before records began in 1837 there is not much hope of knowing what they died of although if it is after 1827 then you could send for a death certificate.

All I have are photocopies of the registers which are not searchable and they are pretty messy & faint in places. I did see another earlier Maxwell family and there are more Sandersons. If you are right & William was born in Scotland then my guess would be that he was told by his relatives that there was work there or maybe he just went on a visit. He then met Mary Ann who was a local girl, maybe from a nearby village & they got married. Now thats all conjecture. haha I can't remember which register I saw the earlier Maxwells in but I will try to look later for you.
