Yorkshire (West Riding) Completed Requests / Re: Schofield family in Elland**Completed**
« on: Friday 04 January 13 16:57 GMT (UK) »
This record for the Scholfield (or Schofield) family can be seen via my web site at http://kescho.webeden.co.uk/#, including the following:
William ‘Scholfield’ (1786), son of John and Sarah Scholfield. William married Sarah, whose maiden name has not been found.
There are many variations of the surname that were recorded, such as Scholfield, Scolefield, Schorefield, Schorfield and many other spellings of the name. For example, there is a John de Scolfeld recorded in Halifax in 1323. William’s name and the earliest records for the next generation are shown with the ‘Scholfield’ spelling.
William (1808);
Mahala (1809 to 1831); do not confuse William’s daughter, Mahala (1809), with Robert’s daughter, Mahala (1840), shown overleaf.
Robert (1811 to 1871); see the next generation.
