Hi

if you go to the Twixt Aire and Calder website, and type 'Navigation Inn, Castleford' into the 'search' box, there are a couple of photos of it  :)

Hi Ambler,

the 1901 census shows George Ambler at Squirrel Hill Farm.... and 2 buildings further down is Black Carr Farm. I'm not sure if this is what you were asking?
I think I'm having a senior moment (no make that day) !

My folk were at Shay Farm, a couple or so pages further on.

The only other mention of 'Black Carr' in my notes, is  that My GG grandfather George Brearley died at Black Carr in May 1859.

Hope this is of help.

Hi Ambler,

I too have people in my tree who lived in the Black Carr/ Squirrel/Green Clough Head area, and also came to the conclusion that it was the same place which was known by different names.

They were attenders at Queenshead General Baptist Church.

Coincidentally my G.g. grandfather was married to a Hannah Lingard....not sure if there's a link to your Lingards there or not.

That's interesting and may explain why it wasn't there by 1851.

The area between Vicarage Lane and Beech Hill is right where the railway line was constructed.

Thanks for that Dave.

I scrolled through the 1851 Census disc and couldn't find it, but will try the Water bag area again...will also email the people you suggest.

Regards Edgy.

There is reference to this street in the 1822 Baines Directory.

Can anyone tell me where it was, or what it is called today please?

Hi Pauline,
The source was a biography written by one of their daughters.

Samuel was living at Pontefract and his wife at Knaresborough when they died. She asked to be buried with him.

However searches at Wakefield have shown no record of a burial for either at Pontefract.

One of the daughters was married at Hatfield in 1797.
And other Parish records refer to Samuel as '....of Hatfield'
so I wondered if they may have been buried there.

Re the marriage...I wondered if there may have been an  entry reading Maria Fisher of......which may indicate where she was born.

I have a marriage of Laurnce William Stevens, to Maria Fisher, 16th January 1797 at Hatfield near Doncaster.
I wonder if the original records would tell me where these people were born/from?

Also I have a death of Samuel Fisher in Dec 1800 and his wife 20th May 1809. And wonder if they were buried at Hatfield.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.
