Dear Valda

Thank you so much for your interesting reply. We will keep on looking. My main interest is the Claytons of Daisy Hill, Manningham, bradford, Yorkshire. - Box Tree Cottage, Crow Trees and local area - Shuttlemakers and at least 4 Wesleyan Methodist ministers and my direct ancestors. I have made contact with a cousin who has old family papers so things are getting interesting
Again many thanks
Richard

Hi Richard

Welcome to Rootschat

I'm not sure where on the thread there is mention of a photograph. The reference to Henry Milnes in Bradford is a transcription taken from the 1841 census for Bradford.

This is the family on the 1851 census

HO107 2310 folio 363
Lower Lane Manningham
Henry Milnes 49 Head Married Innkeeper Horton Yorkshire
Sarah Milnes 44 Wife Married Domestic Manager Birstall Yorkshire
Ellen Milnes 10 Daughter Horton Yorkshire
Alice Milnes 2 Daughter Horton Yorkshire
Ruth Milnes 1 Daughter Horton Yorkshire

and 1861

RG9 3334 folio 26
New Cliffe House Toller Lane Bradford
Henry Milnes 59 Head Married Retired Publican Horton Yorkshire
Sarah Milnes 54 Wife Married  Hunsworth Yorkshire
Ellen Milnes 20 Daughter Horton Yorkshire
Alice Milnes 12 Daughter Horton Yorkshire
Ruth Milnes 11 Daughter Horton Yorkshire
plus 1 servant

Deaths Sep 1870 
Milnes  Henry  69  Bradford, Y.  9b 105
died 4th July at Toller Lane

Henry left a will proved at Wakefield (proved 27th September). One of the executors was his son Eli who was an architect.


Regards

Valda

Hello William Butler - I'm sorry this is not much use to you regarding your Butler family but I am most interested to read you may have a photograph of Henry Milnes and is family. His daughter Ruth was married to my great grandfather John Clayton ( C. & J. Clayton Ltd Box Tree Mill Bradford) and was the love of his life. Sadly she died very young and so did her son some five years later. Eli Milnes was a famous architect and his work is still very much in evidence in Bradford to this day.
If were possible to see this photograph I would be most interested as would my 87 year old mother
Many thanks and good luck with your researchs.
