hi Gragareth
ive managed to confirm the line by locating borthers and sisters all in the same place around medomsley / leadgate all match ok so im 100% this is my family
and traced them all ok the other brothers / sisters have a mixture of Arkengarthdale and Arkendale on census entries
so i think i can close my Whitfield heritage off back to John b 1745 Arkengarthdale married to Margaret Raw b1744
cant seem to get any further though
