Yorkshire (North Riding) / Re: how do I find exact land location in Upsall, Yorkshire?

 Thanks very much Ruskie, BSIGGYME, The Mc for the help and suggestions will investigate. Sandblown not 100% sure but would guess a tenant farmer she was a single mother of 2 assume she made some kind of living of the land but not sure what on 5 acres.

Do you know if Mena's father, James Ayton, was originally from Yorkshire? (even though Mena was born in Scotland) If so do you know James' parents name?

Is there anyway of finding out where my Grandfather (Robert Ernest Peat) might have done his Tailor/Draper Apprenticeship in Yorkshire, possibly at a guess, and only a guess, around the Eaglescliffe area.He would have been 15 years old in 1900.

Thanks very much Dawnkaren for the offer and might take it up as I also had relatives from Eaglescliffe on my fathers side as well so have a few family roots in that area. I knew their address and was able to have a look thanks to google maps "street view" and  I also had a bit of a virtual tour around Upsall where my great grandmother lived in the late 1800s on 5 acres by herself farming, but don't really know the exact location, but at least I have a bit of an idea as to where she lived.I believe they all could be buried in one of the local cemeteries in Eaglescliffe but not sure which cemetery,I know they were church going people not that that means they are buried in a church cemetery, but I would love a photo of a head stone if one exists.

Was this originally posted by accident in the Completed Lookup section, or has it been moved ?

Pels.


I didn't post it in completed, don't know how or who moved it, can it be put back in beginners or in Yorkshire North Riding?

There are a couple living in 1851 by the names of Robert and Mary Long. Robert has listed his birthplace as Borrowby, which is in the parish of Leake
