Sandra, my husband's great-grandmother was Eliza Hargreaves, daughter of Benjamin Hargreaves, greengrocer of Holbeck Lane, Holbeck. In Jan 1862 Eliza married Alfred Birdsell of Crooland Street, Holbeck. I believe Eliza's mother was Catherine Jackson. Does this connect with your Hargreaves?

My Gran used to make the most beautiful parkin and I can still remember how we children loved it! I still have her parkin tin (which doubled as a Yorkshire Pudding tin and was handed on to me by my mother), but have never yet made parkin in it! I will have to put that right. Best wishes for the fair.
