Revised version! (GREENWOOD replaced by UTTLEY) I'm trying to track down information about an INGHAM who was a farmer in the valley below Whitehill Nook near Hebden Bridge. I am told he was a great Wesleyan (in touch with John Wesley) and that his home was used as a school for local preachers. His son James (Red) INGHAM, born about 1800, married a Nanny UTTLEY. I am particularly interested in following up the Wesleyan connection and would welcome suggestions. Thanks, Roger in New Zealand
Hi Roger, Have you tried the Ryland Library in Manchester. I believe they are the holders of the Wesleyan Archives. My maternal family had a similar history using their farm house for the very early services in Fulwood Nr Sheffield. There is an "Uttley" connection also and they were from Wombwell Nr Barnsley buried in Darfield. Hope this is of help.
