Title: 1841
Post by: yorkshirelass on Monday 16 May 05 17:01 BST (UK)
i know this is supposed to be 1851-1901 but i was hoping somebody could answer me a question.

on the sheffield 1841 Jonas WHITAKER down as being born in county what does that mean?

I think the person was born in Keighley, West Yorkshire and Sheffield is South Yorkshire but both were classed as West Riding, so is that my answer?
