Sheffield Archives Lookup - Bullhouse Chapel, Penistone - ADDY
« on: Friday 22 June 12 07:38 BST (UK) »
Hi listers,
I believe that the Bullhouse Chapel records are on fiche at the Sheffield Archives.
If some kind soul is going to the Sheffield Archives and has some spare time please could I ask for a lookup of any ADDYs.
If there were to be some I would not expect there to be more than a handful, so I hope that I am not asking too much.
I am particularly interested in the period 1763-1793 and the family of an Abraham ADDY (one of my ADDY relatives) whose children settled in the Langsett area.
But I am also doing a one name study of ADDYs in West Yorkshire so am interested in all entries.
I am happy to help with anyone researching the ADDY surname, I have been compiling data for several years now.
Thanks,
Sharon

When I enquired a few years ago, Sheffield only had Baptisms on microfiche.  Bullhouse Chapel is Independent and the actual registers have never been deposited in an archive but are still in the care of the chapel administrator. You could try contacting her (and offering to pay an appropriate look-up charge.) I found her very helpful and genuinely interested.

(*).  Or enter "Bullhouse Chapel" on a web search. It is quite an interesting set-up.

I seem to remember that some of the ADDY family in the Bullhouse - Holmfirth area were Quakers so it might also be worth your while searching their records.  As I am sure you know, the Quakers were able to solemnise marriages in their Meeting Houses before the 1837 Act.
