Many thanks for your response to my enquiry. The information I posted re-Jonas & Harriet Littlewood came from the Census returns at Ancestry.com and their wedding information from Yorkshire BDM (St Peter's Leeds 1838. Ref: CE46/6/356). I was told by a member of FIBIS that their son Charles went to India in 1859. I keep hoping that I will find a link somewhere.

You may, in time, find that this Jonas is your Jonas' father but will have to check with the parish records to confirm. There are no HARRIET BURRAS anywhere in the country!! (but remember it doesn't claim to be anywhere near 100% coverage) Good luck Heather Q maquis@maquis.karoo.co.uk wrote: > Hello > Do any Listers have JONAS LITTLEWOOD (born Holmfirth c.1811) and wife > HARRIET (nee BURRAS) in their family tree? > 1841 they were living Leeds West with sons Samuel & Charles. > 1851, 1871 still in Leeds at Cross Field Street with just Samuel. > 1881 at 6 Mark Street –Jonas aged 70 & Harriet aged 66. > Grateful for any information ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ENG-YORKSHIRE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web.com – Enhanced email for the mobile individual based on Microsoft® Exchange - http://link.mail2web.com/Personal/EnhancedEmail
