    3. Hi Barbara & List The Huddersfield & District FHS index of baptisms at Kirkburton do not contain any baptisms matching the names and dates you quote. There is one entry for Henry (son of James Hinchliffe and Sarah Wortley) on 21 July 1782. This also appears on the IGI. There is no entry for a Henry around 1826. Looking at the H&D FHS index for both the 1841 and 51 Census, there are 3 Henry Hinchliffes mentioned in each. However the 8 year old App blacksmith is in the same household as Hugh Hinchliffe in 1841. In 1851 he is still there and shown as the 18 yr old son of Hugh. I wonder if you have the correct family? Perhaps you might say how you arrived at this conclusion and we may be able to help more. Cheers Roger Researching GILL, BERRY, CHARLESWORTH & ROBINSON south of Huddersfield.

I am rather new to the parish record search process. I am trying to determine which microfiche/film to order for Parish Records for Hepworth, 1750 - 1860. When I search the Family History Library, Hepworth shows records from 1863 - 1985. Would the records I need be in Kirk Burton parish? There are 11 films listed for Kirk Burton. At US$6 per film, I don't want to order the wrong one! I am searching HINCHLIFFE, specifically Henry born abt 1786 and his son Henry, born abt 1826. A second question if you are still reading: Would an 8 year old boy be apprenticed to a blacksmith? I think I found son Henry in the 1841 census but the age was 8 rather than 15. I do know that the census often has mistakes around age. Thanks for any help offered! Barbara
