Hi,

My name is Liz and I am researching a branch of the Whitehead family who lived mainly in Beverley (about 8 miles from Hull).  I believe that some of them did live in Sculcoates - maybe we can link?

Regards,

Liz

Hello there,
I'm new to this site so hope I'm doing it right. My Whiteheads (and I have a lot) were from all over the show in Yorkshire - Eston, Long Newton, Leeds, Redcar, Middelsbro, Skelton, Coatham, etc.
If any of these ring a bell, I'll happily share what info I have.
Regards,
Sheri

Hi

I have Whitehead ancestors. They were in the papermaking business and moved around quite abit from their original roots in Derbyshire. If you have anyone with this trade, let me know and we can compare notes.

Thanks

I am researching Whiteheads from the Bradford area mainly I think.
How far from your area of interest is this?
Thanks
