MOORHOUSE ~ West Yorkshire
« on: Thursday 31 July 08 09:29 BST (UK) »
Looking for all Moorhouse names and varients.

I'm particularly interested in names from the Sheffield Barnsley area of West Yorkshire.

I have a growing database with names I'm willing to do a look up, just give me PM with your request and details.

Hi

I am researching Beaumont's is Holmfirth Huddersfield. West Yorkshire.

The Beaumont we have problems with are the Father and mother of of John Beaumont Born 1816 Damhouse Cartworth Holmfirth, there are 3 possible dads
Abraham b 1778 Newmill Holmfirth
------"-----b 1780 Bent in Hade Edge holmfirth
Abr------- b  1779 Scholes Newmill Holmhirth


We think! through their religion of sibbling around locations
that Upperthong /Netherthong Abraham was the Dad of John b1816. Abraham was the son of Joseph Netherthong who we believe married Ruth Moorhouse of Upperthong abt 1770/3

In John Beaumont b 1816  on the 1851 census residence  location in upperethong Holmfirth with wife Charlotte Haddock married  local in 1841! there is a lodger called Duke Moorhouse b 1803 Woodale Holmfirth son of William! we thing he could be a cousin through  John's mother Ruth Moorehouse's  and son of her brother William.

Other than Parish reg with vauge lacation there is little info re 1837 and most marriage certs/Par reg give little if not any info AS TO PARENTS AS SAID PR 1837.

I would be gratfull for any help you could adives on

Regards Dave
