Thanks Groom for your info & for the advice.  I was not sure what to do with the 2 topics being posted.  Thought I had lost the original post so did it a 2nd time.  Next time I will double check before redoing.

Hope this will link both posts.  Link

Thankyou for that info Suz & groom.  It is interesting that Joseph was a publican & married women that had fathers who were also inn keeprers.  His sister Sarah's father-in-law was also an innkeeper at the Miner's Rest Inn.

That is 4 Gledhills down, just Emma, Milly, Caroline, Annie, George & John to go, so if anyone can enlighten me about them that would be great.

I am looking for more info on the children of George Gledhill & Sarah Fish who married in 1827 at Cawthorne.
 I have the names of their children & years of birth but am looking for any marriage records &/or death records. The info I already have is as follows:
Emma Gledhill born 1830, Cawthorne; Milly born 1832, Cawthorne; Ruth born 1836, Cawthorne; Caroline born 1837, Cawthorne; Annie born 1843, Barnsley; Joseph born 1840, Cawthorne; George born 1845, Silkstone; John born 1847, Silkstone; Edwin born 1850, Silkstone.  I also have Sarah Jane born 1854, Silkstone who married James Wilson & emigrated to Australia 1886.  Did any of her siblings also emigrate or was it just Sarah & her husband?

I am currently trying to find out about my maternal Grandmother's father's family.  He was George Wilson born c. 1879, Carlton, Yorkshire?  His parents were James Wilson (bn c.1852, Barnsley, Yorkshire) & Sarah Jane Gledhill (bn c. 1853 West Riding, Yorkshire).  I know James was a coalminer & Sarah was a linen weaver).

I would like to find out some more about James Wilson.  It is believed that his parents were John & Elizabeth Wilson.  He emigrated to Australia with his wife & 5 children, arriving in Sydney on the "Aberdeen" 15 April 1886.

Does anyone have an further insights.  Were John & Elizabeth Wilson his parents?
