London and Middlesex / Re: William De Levante

Thank you all for this.  You've all been working a lot longer than I have on this and my in-laws will be thrilled.

My husband's ancestor is Emily Florence Macarthy and I haven't yet ordered her birth or marriage certificates. (Or for any other of his forebears, as it seemed daft to spend the money when he himself isn't that interested. I can see now I shall have to).

I've got the Macarthys in both the 1851 and 1861 censuses. In 1851, no children are mentioned.

All the best
Joyce

Im a gt-great nephew of Alfred Wareing who married Emily Florence Macarthy in 1877, and have a copy of their marriage certificate. My Dad said the theatre was in our blood and Ive always thought that they were Jewish. Incidentally the details for Alfreds father are incorrect on his marriage certificate. The Delavante connection is fascinating, I would love to know more!

Go to www.mytholmroydwalkers.org and look for the Scout Rock Walk.  The map will take you to White Lee Bridge.  A clough is a narrow little gourge so this will be the bridge over it. (or follow pictures for Scout Rock Walk and its right at the bottom)

Many thanks.

According to the Calderdale Companion its between Wadsworth and Mytholmroyd

Ady :)

Yes, thanks. Ive found Mytholmroyd (south of Hebden Bridge) but not Wadsworth. Is this part of Halifax or futher west, towards the border with Lancashire?

Does anyone know where exactly White Lee Clough, Wadsworth near Halifax is? Ive searched maps but I can't make out where I should be looking. Researching the PATCHETT family who lived in White Lee Clough in 1841 and 1851. Especially Abraham Patchett who married Betty Tattersall 1847 in Bacup, Lancs.

Hi Dyan,

Im related to this family through my gt-grandfather William Wareing and Alfred Wareing who was grandfather of Charles and Bernard. Some years ago I spoke to Bob (Robert Joseph) Wareing who had researched his ancestors back to West Bromwich, where like me, he had hit a 'dead-end'. Do you know anything about the family history? They were neighbours in Erdington near Birmingham.

Dennis Wareing.
