Thank you Stan, I have seen that information. I am trying to find out if my grt grt grandma was born at  Hunslet Hall the area or Hunslet Hall the manor.
Her baptisam record show her born at Hunslet Hall in 1820 and as a servant in 1841.

Hi,
Does anyone know the history of Hunslet Hall Manor in Leeds?
My Grt Grt Grandma Mary Westerman was born at Hunslet Hall in 1820. I have seen the Hunslet Hall subject which dont mention it as a Manor Hall.
I am trying to trace John and Sarah Westerman who were her parents. There are lots of John Westerman and Sarah marriages that would tie in as Marys parents and I have contacted family tree holders with a John and Sarah Westerman on their family tree but, none have mine from Hunslet Hall. I don't know were to go next to find the right family?
Leeds Archives have traced Mary and her sister Eliza's baptism at St Peters Leeds 11/02/1823.
I had thought Hunslet Hall was an area until, during my research I found a Josias Westerman who had Hunslet Hall Manor House passed to him from his father in law in the 1700's and as I am now stuck wondered if I could trace him to my Westerman's.
I have followed Mary to my Grt Grandma Lydia Shaw nee Westerman - she was born illegitimate.
Hope some one can help to put me back on track ?
Thanks
Dawn

Hi everyone,
I am doing my family tree and hoping a member will be able to help me?
I am looking for the Westerman family from Hunslet Hall.
Leeds Archives found my grt grt grandma Mary Westerman born at Hunslet Hall in 1820 to John and Sarah Westerman. John was a labourer.
I had thought Hunslet Hall was an area until I found Josias Westerman had owned Hunslet Hall Manor in the 1700's.
My problem is that the Westerman name was very commom in Leeds at that time and they all seemed to use the same first names.
I am finding it very difficult to tie Mary to the right Westerman family.
Mary was born 28/12/1820 baptised at St Peters Leeds 11/02/1823 at the same time at her sister Eliza. Eliza's birth date was not recored.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Dawn  :) :) :)
