I wound hazard a guess at Montague Terrace - although the first one looks as though is is spelt "Mountague"

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: Looking for Ackroyd Family in Bradford
« on: Tuesday 12 February 13 09:01 GMT (UK) »
Glad to have been able to help.
Are these James' half-siblings?
St Peter, Bradford:
28 February 1812 - John, son of Edward Ackroyd of Bradford, Butcher
18 July 1813 - Hannah, daughter of Edward and Betty Ackroyd, of Bradford, Butcher
9 November 1814 - Thomas Fenton, son of Edward and Betty Ackroyd of Bradford, Butcher
Is this Edward's baptism?
Assuming, of course, that the 1841 marriage is the correct one
St Peter, Bradford - 11 February 1787
Edward, son of John Akeroyd of Great Horton, Miller
and, a possible baptism for John:
St Peter, Bradford - 23 November 1766
John, son of James Ackroyd of Bolling

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Marriage lookup, Elisabeth Jane Jones, Hulme 1911.

The Elizabeth Jane Jones/Frederick Raby marriage at St Saviour, Chorlton on Medlock shows father's name as Hugh Jones, a Farmer. Both are of "full age" so no clues there.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: Sarah Carter of Soyland Halifax
« on: Monday 11 February 13 08:44 GMT (UK) »
Not sure if you've got the marriage:
St Mary, Elland - 7 January 1838
Nathan Carter (x) 21 bachelor of Soyland, Spinner. Father James, a Weaver
Ann Howard (x) 22 spinster of Soyland. Father John, Twister
Marriage was by Banns, and the two witnesses, I think, are church officials.
I can't see Sarah being baptised, or Thomas.

Possibly try the Borthwick Institute in York. Or West Yorkshire Archive Services - they are at Huddersfield Library or alternatively records might be at Wakefield. I can't see anything on-line.

Neither Emily nor James are buried at St Matthew, Rastrick, so possibly cemetery burials.
