Identify House?
« on: Friday 17 June 11 02:41 BST (UK) »
   I'm taking a real long shot here to see if anyone can identify the attached house that is supposedly the house of a direct ancestor from Yorkshire.
   I have been trying to track down information on John PRUDHAM (1807-1889)who came to Canada from England in 1832.  I have made earlier inquiries as to his parentage on the Yorkshire East board, but now believe that it may have been Yorkshire North that he was from.  Hence my post here on this board now.
   It appears the spelling in England may have been PRUDOM, as we have identified an older sister Tamar and a half brother Mark of that spelling.
   Back to my original quiry  -  does anyone know of this house.  It was taken in 1959 or 1960 by an uncle who had travelled to England, but is now deceased.
   Of course I won't turn down any information on his parentage if anyone knows.
   Thanks for any assistance.   :) :)

Might be worth searching the early census records to see if any of that name are still living in a big house in Yorkshire.  Wills might hold clues too.  Try the prodocumentsonline site for a start - though it only has PCC wills not all the Yorkshire ones.      Access to Archives might have documents too.

Hello There....

I do not know if it is of any significance, but I have found the baptism of a

THAMAR PRUDDOM. which took place at Glaisdale, North Yorkshire in 1778, father was Samuel

I know this is a generation earlier than your John Prudham/Prudom, but names were often repeated in families, so Glaisdale area, may be a good place to start....

What other information do you have on your Tamar and Mark ? it may help if we can "tie" them down

This is a long shot but this house looks very much like your photograph.

Sorry, not Acklam.  OP's house has bay windows.
