Hi Evie

Sorry for the delay I was working nights the ref for the 1881 census was RG11 piece 4477/123 page 16
The head of the Family is William Procter (spelt ER not OR)

This is the first mention of Braidley I have looked into the Braidley census hoping to find Jane or James in the 1841 census but no joy. There is a Jane Simpson living in Parliament st Bilton Harrogate (HO107/1285/10 but the ages dont add up. No sign of James (who seems to be a mystery. The Knaresborough 1841 census is the clue with James, Jane 1826 and William 1825 but I havent found it yet.
Its still bugging me why state birth place as Morton then Braidley, the only thought is Jane was born in Knaresborough travelled to/from Braidley and on the journey gave birth at Morton, the guiseley/Bradford was were she lived and would have been easier to state.

The plot thickens Many thks for your input

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / SIMPSON, Knaresborough confusion
« on: Friday 29 October 10 11:11 BST (UK)  »
I am looking to solve a little problem with the Simpson side of my family. I'm searching for a James Simpson my gggggrandfather. He was a weaver in 1847 stated on his daughter's marr cert, Jane Simpson who was born in knaresborough in 1827 and married 3 times in Otley/Baildon and Bradford. He also had a son William Simpson bn 1825 also in Knaresborough.
Jane had a daughter Ann Elizabeth Simpson my gggrandmother she was born in 1845, this is where the confusion begins born:
1851 East Morton,
1861 Morton
1871 now Proctor born Morton
1881 Proctor born Braidley
1891 Proctor bn Guiseley
1901 Proctor bn Bradford

On Ann E's marriage certif it states she has no father (poss illegitimate?)
I was wondering whether James actually came from Knaresbourough or the family came from the Braidley area and she went there to give birth away from her father.
A mystery.....any ideas anyone
