Could it be Gardham?
There is a High Gardham and Low Gardham to the west of Beverley.

Hi all thanks so much for all your help on my Ann! There was a mystery as to why her nephew Alfred came to stay with her on and off all through both their lives, Im still not sure but Alfreds brother mother and father just dissapear so i figure they may of died so i need to go check this out.
But little alfred, grows up to be a farmer with over 500 acres of land in Little Weighton (weeton) and gets to the ripe old age of 74 ish when in 1912 he is hit by a train while he was crossing the track! The ironic thing about it all is he gave some lands up to help build the darn thing!!!!
And i have also found 1 other desendant, who i have emailed but as yet no reply! fingers crossed though!
Thanks to Fisherman, Maggie10, mangomania, mum44 and tatti x x x x x x x
