I have traced my foremothers back 12 generations to Mary Gelder baptised in abt 1689. The family was from Woodhouse Leeds and she married John Fielding. Their family moved to Hull for a couple of generations and then back to Leeds. Does anyone know where I can go from here to find out about the Gelder family. I would like to look further back and also find her mother. I am wondering if they had to do with the horse trade or were migrants, from the Netherlands perhaps. Can anyone help with this?
