Good Morning,
If there are anybody out there who is researching the above families, or knows anything about them, I would be glad to compare notes and hopefully find missing information to my notes.
Thank you

Have you checked the Surnames Interest Table here on RootsChat?
There's a link at the bottom of every RootsChat page, underneath "Your Tools" ;D

Thank you for your reply and offer. My family tree has the Varley and Pickles family coming together with the marriage of Fred Pickles and Sarah Varley in 1902. I have been able to go back to Bernard Pickles and Elizabeth Wade, no birth , death or marriage details for them, but have birth details for their 7 children, the oldest being Joseph, born 1796.
On the Varley side of the family, i have been able to go back to James Varley and Martha Allerton, again no birth, death or marriage details, and their son George, 1741 - 1811.
I have found other Varleys and Pickles from Wilsden, and as it a small place, I am sure they could be related some time prior to the dates given. My ultimate aim is to prove this or otherwise.
Can anybody help me in this?
Thank you

How did you find Elizabeth Wade, and Martha Allerton's surnames without finding the marriages?
Marriages were traditionally in the brides parish, so I would look in all neighbouring parishes rather than stick to Wilsden. The groom may have been living there, and they may have settled there and had their family there after the marriage if that is where he was working, but the actual marriage may have taken place in the parish where the bride was living.

There is a Barnard Pickles, yeoman, buried in Wilsden 22nd September 1831 aged 73 years.

There is a marriage on Anc* of a James Varley of ? Bradford to a Martha Akerson, possible transcript error as writing is not very clear but looks like Allerton to me.
1 Oct 1732
Bingley, All Saints

Yorkshire Bishop transcript image a bit clearer: James Varley of parish of Bradford married Martha Allerton of Bingley on 1st October 1732 Bingley.

sgf28,

Hi Peter,
I have lots and lots of Varley ancestors in Wilsden :D
At one time I was in touch with 3 other people who also had Varley ancestors in the village and we could not connect any of them :(
Most of my branch lived at the top of the village in the Ling Bob / Laneside area, however I have not found any connection to the Pickles family. William born 1798, was my gr gr grandfather and I have been able to account for most of his offspring and there is no James.

Deetot,
Please send me a PM so we can communicate on this matter. The Varley I am studying have lived in Ling Bob area and on Bob Lane for nearly 200 years, and I am convinced that all the various strands of the family are connected in the distant past
If they lived in the Ling Bob area surely you have seen the markings left by my ancesters?
