Plews Yard Aiskew.
« on: Saturday 03 March 12 00:36 GMT (UK) »
Dear Mike
Thank you for replying and the offer of help.
My husband's family is GRUFFERTY. He was from Mayo Ireland, where I know a lot of Farm labourers came from in those times.
James bought the family and settled but moving on to Leeds before the First World War.
We have lived in York in the past but had not got interested in Family History, much to our regret . Living now in Brisbane Australia we do visit places by Google Earth and have been to Bedale about 1992.
Thank you again
Brenda

Hi Brenda

Did you have a margaret or peggy grifferty in the family? She used to live in Leeds but was originally from Mayo in Ireland.. she moved to australia in about 1950 with her husband but I do not have her married name.

I can find a grifferty family in ireland in 1901 and have found the same family, showing as grufferty, in plews yard on the 1911 census. 

Thanks
