Thanks Jo you have done what I thought was going to take me a long time ... eliminated most if not all on my list.  I will wait to see if any more information comes from the cemetery records. I think the 1853 is the correct one. I hope it has a headstone and is not a common grave but I am not usually so lucky.
     Thanks again  SVB

I seem to remember that some workhouses buried paupers within the grounds of the Workhouse.

Lin, Yorkshire Indexers originally Records for the Leeds area.  It basically still is, but is being added to all the time.  There are people on there with a lot info.  Your best bet is to have a look at the site. You need to register (free) if you want to participate.
It does not cover other Counties, but holds a wealth of information, photos etc

Hi Brian

It appears your question has been answered at yorkshire indexers.

  I am new to yorkshire indexers and can not find any reference to Benjamin Hartley. I have not seen my request for help yet as I was told it would have to go through the moderator. can you direct me please.

The reply states Benjamin was buried in a common grave.
And lists the location of grave at Hunslet.

A big thank you to every one who has helped.

Debs, thank your brother but tell him not to search for the grave. if he finds anything about the workhouse I would be interested.
Thanks SVB
