I have a letter from a Nancy Wardell, gt granddaughter of Sarah Bushby,(Stan's mother), stating that Sarah's mother was a Margaret Calvert before she married Thomas Bushby.  Sarah married George Metcalfe at Hawes on 08/12/1859.

My great grandmother was Margaret Bushby, born 13/07/1831, daughter of Thomas and Margaret.  She was married to Matthew Grainger, clogger, of Hawes on 16/04/1863, at Hawes parish church.  I believe she was sister to Sarah Bushby who was Stan Laurel's grandmother.  Matthew and Margaret had 8 sons, 2 of whom died in infancy.  Margaret died 07/04/1913.   My grandfather, Richard, carried on the shoe and clogmaking business.
