Hi Diane,

Thanks for the info. Yes the first two are definitely part of the family also the last one is I think the husband of the second one (Maria).

They dont apear on the MI's for Wetwang.

Yes that would make sense.  By the way, I visited the church at Wetwang a few weeks ago but couldn't find graves for any of the Monkman family.

Hi Diane,

There are two gravestones at Wetwang for the Monkman's; Sarah died 3 May 1905, & Thomas & Hannah 4 may 1890 & 27 mar 1860.

I have photo's some where if you want I go there now and again when I have been to Nafferton.

D1ANE or dortmund - either of you have a listing for Doris E Monkman, married 1929 in Malton? Separately, don't know how far back your trees go - ever hear of any Monkman ancestors or relatives who went to North America - perhaps 1845? I have notes on a son, William Henry, born in Ontario 1861 - and a Charles born there, 1859.
