Wheldrake, Weldrake, Welldrake, Wheldrick, Weldrick - any variation, anywhere
Hi everyone Still looking for the marriage of Robert Weldrake and Susannah ? somewhere in Yorkshire in the early 1700s. The couple settled in Birstall parish, near Huddersfield, and had children born there from 1708 onwards but I have no idea where they came from. Susannah died 1737, Robert 1743 so birth dates likely around 1670s/1680s? Seems to be another childThomas who was not baptised in Birstall but married Jane WHITEHEAD there in 1739 and then moved to Hunslet. I've seen 68 different spellings of Weldrake so any Robert and Susannah combination no matter how unlikely won't be ruled out! Can anyone end this nearly 30 year quest?! Jane

Hello Peter, Not to worry. I just wondered, as my grandparents had friends they holidayed with in Scarborough, but they came from Leeds not Sheffield. Hope you manage to track down the family you're looking for. Best, John

Heaton & Manningham (Bradford)
My BROADLEYs seem to have originated in the Heaton/Manningham area of Bradford (although there is a rumour that they came from Halifax). They belonged to the Baptist church (now demolished - twice), and I have done quite a lot of work to reconstruct the BROADLEY family tree there from the Burial Registers and the Memorial Inscriptions in the graveyard (CD from the Bradford Family History Society - Bradford FHS). Many other local names have appeared during this research. The graveyard is a beautiful place, and well worth a visit. It is maintained by a small group of volunteers, but they could do with more help if anyone is living nearby. One of their leaders, Margaret Gray, has recently published a history of the Heaton Baptist Church, and some of the more memorable residents. Details are on the graveyard's Facebook page, although you have to scroll down a little way to find it. Facebook - HeatonGraveyardProject
