Parker
My maternal grandmother was born Rosa Parker in 1863. She was
the youngest of ten girls born to George and Emily Parker of
Grange
Farm, which I think was near Whitley or Grange Moor. She was
married to John Edward Smithson, son of James Edward and Harriet
Smithson
of Huddersfield on 24.12.1885 at Kirkheaton Parish Church.
They were master plumbers and I believe both father and son
were killed
in a gas explosion on 3 May 1902. Subsequently she married
John Cawood, born circa 1848, possibly from Leeds. I have no
information
about the Parkers, Smithsons or Cawoods prior to this. Of the
ten sisters, one, Martha, married Mr Beatson and had a daughter,
Beatrice.
Another had a daughter who married a Mr Sheard. I would welcome

One of my wife’s descendants is Rhoda Peacock – born

on 24th May 1847 in Manchester Cathedral. Rhoda’s parents
were Mark Peacock – born 11th May 1787
in Grinton, Yorkshire, who married Jane Spensley also
from Grinton. Family folk-law says that Rhoda was in some way
linked to the Beyer-Peacock engineering company in Manchester,
England.
One
of the founders
was Richard Peacock – born 9th April 1820 – in
Swaledale, Yorkshire. His father was Ralph. Can anyone
help to establish Rhoda's link to Richard Peacock?
Research shows that a Ralph Peacock – born 1782 was the brother
of Mark (same one as mentioned earlier). Does anyone have any information
about the descendants of Ralph? If I can establish that Rhoda’s
father (Mark) and the Ralph (father of Richard) were
brothers, then Rhoda and Richard (above) were cousins.

Perrott
My great-grandfather George Perrott 1868-1899 had two brothers, one of whom almost certainly had children. He was John Perrott 1871-1939 who married Phoebe Marsden in Bradford. I am interested in learning if John and Phoebe have any descendants. George, John and brother William plus their Mother Elizabeth came to live in Bradford.
The Perrott family came from the East Lutton/Malton areas of Yorkshire, I can trace them back to John Perrott 1805 to poss 1878 who might have been born in Hull. I would like to confirm his dates and place of birth, and anything else about the Perrott family.
Happy to exchange information.

Priestley
My grandfather Arthur Priestley was born in Leeds in 1879. Previous
generations come from the Bradford area, (Bowling, Low Moor etc.)
There were quite a few of them! Great grandfather was called Amos
and seems to have two entries on the 1901 census. His parents were
Joseph and Mary nee Shepherd. Any nformation would be gratefully
received.

Procter
I am almost certain that my family is connected to the Procter's of Winterburn in Yorkshire. However, despite all our best efforts we cannot find a connection between Thomas Procter born 1702 who married an Elizabeth Pigrim and moved to Rye in Sussex. It is possible that he was born abroad, possibly France, as two of his grandchildren were christened by the King in exiles personal priest in the early 1800s. Was this King Charles Stuart? We don't know.
However, from personal papers we do know he was connected to some sort of iron production, similar in fact to what the Yorkshire branch was doing at the time. Is this the conection?
If anyone can assist it would be most helpful.

I am researching my
great grandfather - Thomas
Henry

that would be. His father
was William Proctor also
from Appletown
and
his mother could
have been Hannah.
Thomas
joined the
Army at Leeds in 1880.
If anyone can help me
as to
which Appleton
this
could be, or can help
with my quest then I would be
very gratefull.

Fermon might well be Fermanagh, but later census records say
Fermon. The marriage took place in Northern Ireland in 1856.
Any help would be very welcome.
