Pateley Bridge: monumental inscriptions

[wildsam38]

Hello 

I am trying to find my granddad family in pateley bridge as far as I know that they lived there but not sure until when and their names are: Sarah A Keegan, Mary Keegan, Ellen or Nellie Keegan (ages 30 - 26 in 1911), however I have 1911 Census that they lived at low laithe working at Hemp Spinning Mills (horton or harker), my granddad was born in 1910 in Low Laithe - but birth certificate says 1 Kings Street - Pateley Bridge.

I would like any information if possible on this family — as they are sisters.

Granddad however ended up in Queensbury - not sure what year and we do not know anything of the 3 sisters.

Any information would be much appreciated.

Looking forward to any response to any history or information.

Hi Sam,

Good luck on your research, but you would be much better to start a new thread.  Only people who have already been reading this thread, or who have a special interest in Pateley Bridge monumental inscriptions, are likely to see your message on this thread, whereas a much larger audience would view a new thread.

When you log in, I would suggest you go to Yorkshire (North Riding), where you will see a button "New Topic".  Posting it there is probably your best bet.

All the best
Tim

Hello,

I was wondering if there were any inscriptions you came upon with the last name "Stoney" in Pateley Bridge. Specifically George Stoney


Thank you

Hi Andrea,

Welcome to RootsChat - I notice this is your first post!

Rather than appending a message on to this thread, you are better off taking either of two different approaches.  The first would be to start your own thread, perhaps with the title "Looking for George STONEY in Pateley Bridge", or something like that.  Alternatively, noting that it was Barbara who provided the information earlier in the thread, you can send her a personal message by clicking on her user name.

The reason both of these are better options is that people lose interest in a thread after a while - Barbara may still be viewing this thread, or she might have "unsubscribed" from it - and other people, who might have information on George, are not likely to start looking through an old thread which they have seen before and decided not to view!

Hope this helps, and best of luck finding George.  By the way, if you start a new thread, try to provide some key information about George, especially dates of birth, marriage, or death - even rough ones will help people out.

Cheers
Tim

Hi
Please does anyone know about the Grange families of Pateley Bridge. I am trying to find links between Joseph Grange who was married to Margaret Richardson and left to live in America in 1830 and Samuel Skaife Grange, as well as Joseph Grange and John who moved to Manchester. I have many Granges on my family tree and would be grateful for any inscriptions that show family relationships. I am able to access UK census images back to 1841 but am struggling for information before these dates.
My other interests are the family of Edmund Longster and Laura Hawkin.
Kind regards
Tricia

Hi Tricia,

Welcome to RootsChat, and good luck with your research. 

As I mentioned to Andrea, you will find RootsChatters Very helpful, but instead of adding to this existing thread, it is a much better idea to start your own thread.  Relatively few people will read this thread, but many more will read a new thread on the Yorkshire (North Riding) page.

All the best
Tim

Kind regards

I am noticing some dialogue about the Mill at Glasshouses.  I am a direct descendant of the Atkinson family that purchased the mill in the mid 1920's which was sold in 1970 and am seeking any information about that family.
