Title: Place of residence Huddersfield area 1747
Post by: lennonjohn on Tuesday 05 May 20 15:07 BST (UK)

Hi all,

I have the baptism record of William Liversidge 1747 from All Hallows Church, Almondbury, unfortunately I can't decipher the place of abode. Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance

Jeff

I think it's '...of the stone pit.'

I think it is stone pit as well and his surname is Liversedge.
