« on: Monday 30 May 05 19:56 UTC (UK) »

Hi I have been passed down from a great aunt, some information regarding my swaledale relatives, I have been given no sources and dont know how accurate this information is. I would be interested and gratefull if anyone has any information on the following people, who I was told were all born throughout Swaledale.

Thomas Cherry born c1720s (Grinton?) marries Elizabeth Alderson born c1728
Simon Cherry born c1757 marries Mary Wones born c1756 (Muker?)
Edward Cherry c1785 marries Elizabeth Bowes c1786
George Cherry born 1816 (Houghton, Durham) marries Margaret Nicholson c1820 (Reeth)

Any help would be extremely gratefull.

Thanks.
Mike

For anything to do with Swaledale it is well worth joining the Upper Dales family History Group.  It does not cost anything.  They are part of the Cleveland FHG and have tremendous local knowledge.  Try googling them and join their email group.  I have seen many mentions of the names you are researching on there.

This is an interesting post for me as I am researching the Cherry family in Heptonstall, West Riding. I know that Thomas Cherry b 1821 who married Susey Dewhirst was the son of another Thomas Cherry. Thomas 1821 had a brother called James and a sister. But I am wondering whether he also had another brother who could prove some sort of link between the Heptonstall Cherrys (who moved over the border to Cliviger, Lancs), the Swaledale ones and the Co Durham ones.

Look at this 1851 Melbecks Census entry:

CHERRY John/Head/32/Lead ore dresser/Yks/Heptonstall
CHERRY Ann/wife/30/Yks/Heptonstall
CHERRY Jane/dau/8/Yks/Reeth
CHERRY Tho'/son/6/Yks/Heptonstall
CHERRY Simon/son/4/Yks/Reeth
CHERRY Sarah Ann/dau/11m/Dur/Walsingham

Obviously John might have come here by chance (for work?) or he might have been returning to where he already had some family. Does anyone have any ideas?
