Thank you for that, Forestfloor.
 I have:
Harriet Rainsford, married Samuel Allen, and was the mother of (amongst others) Joseph Allen
Susan Rainsford, who married Samuel Ford
Joseph Allen and Samuel Ford are the names I'm researching from the memorial, All from duffield, presumably part of the same family :)

I don't have any Rainsford's in my tree, but am involved with a couple of Duffield based Rainsford's in my research on  a war memorial - happy to share any information I have.

Samuel Hick had one child,  a son Charles 1801 - 1881, he had three daughters and no sons
I'm still battling with the Hick family!  I have Charles Hick, married Aley?Alice Smales on 1 December 1828 in Rothwell. Their two youngest children were born after 1837, and on their birth registrations mother's maiden name is given as Smales, so I'm fairly confident that I have the correct marriage.
Census returns and death certificate (1881) all estimate his birth as c1801. I can find no sign of a baptism, but wouldn't expect to if he was from a non-conformist family.
However, there's a statement on a Select Removal and Settlement Record from 1840, given by his father - Joseph, a blacksmith in Kippax......   Any pointers would be really gratefully received!

Thanks for that Hick4262 - I have anecdotal to that effect, but nothing concrete to show that Charles was his son - Ann and Rosamund are mentioned in the biography mentioned in other posts, but I have found no parish or other records to indicate that Charles was Samuel's son.
Charles apparent year of birth ix c1801 according to his census returns, but I've found no parish records to confirm this. The date of death is easier to verify with the death certificate. If I can definitely link Charles as Samuel's son, then I have a direct line back to Samuel for my other half.

Wow! Thank you Hayly86!  That's a lot of information, I'll go and refer back to my tree and see what more I have ;)  Like you say, it's a while ago!  You never know, we could be related ;)

Mante46, I'm sure there was more than one blacksmith in the family, but Samuel, the preacher, was  the village blacksmith. You may have seen a book about him online: [url]https://archive.org/details/villageblacksm00ever/url]
It's fairly easy to get a copy on disc, or a hard copy.
This is a line of the family tree that I really need to pay some attention to!

For some reason I missed the post from Clarky666 about the family tree. Allegedly my other half is a direct descendant, but I'm still struggling to get any primary evidence - is anyone aware of Samuel Hick having any daughters, please?
We do have a copy of the Village blacksmith book.

Thank you, Rosie - I have the school on the census returns, just wondering if it was a special type of school. i'll hunt out those newspaper articles, they should tell me ;)
